3139          (4) After receiving a request for a record, a governmental entity shall:
3140          (a) review each request that seeks an expedited response and notify, within five
3141     business days after receiving the request, each requester that has not demonstrated that their
3142     record request benefits the public rather than the person that their response will not be
3143     expedited; and
3144          (b) as soon as reasonably possible, but no later than 10 business days after receiving a
3145     written request, or five business days after receiving a written request if the requester
3146     demonstrates that expedited response to the record request benefits the public rather than the
3147     person:
3148          (i) approve the request and provide a copy of the record;
3149          (ii) deny the request in accordance with the procedures and requirements of Section
3150     63G-2-205;
3151          (iii) notify the requester that it does not maintain the record requested and provide, if
3152     known, the name and address of the governmental entity that does maintain the record; or
3153          (iv) notify the requester that because of one of the extraordinary circumstances listed in
3154     Subsection (6), it cannot immediately approve or deny the request, and include with the notice:
3155          (A) a description of the circumstances that constitute the extraordinary circumstances;
3156     and
3157          (B) the date when the records will be available, consistent with the requirements of
3158     Subsection (7).

3159          (5) Any person who requests a record to obtain information for a story or report for
3160     publication or broadcast to the general public is presumed to be acting to benefit the public
3161     rather than a person.
3162          (6) The following circumstances constitute "extraordinary circumstances" that allow a
3163     governmental entity to delay approval or denial by an additional period of time as specified in
3164     Subsection (7) if the governmental entity determines that due to the extraordinary
3165     circumstances it cannot respond within the time limits provided in Subsection (4):
3166          (a) another governmental entity is using the record, in which case the originating
3167     governmental entity shall promptly request that the governmental entity currently in possession
3168     return the record;
3169          (b) another governmental entity is using the record as part of an audit, and returning the
3170     record before the completion of the audit would impair the conduct of the audit;
3171          (c) (i) the request is for a voluminous quantity of records or a record series containing a
3172     substantial number of records; or
3173          (ii) the requester seeks a substantial number of records or records series in requests
3174     filed within five working days of each other;
3175          (d) the governmental entity is currently processing a large number of records requests;
3176          (e) the request requires the governmental entity to review a large number of records to
3177     locate the records requested;
3178          (f) the decision to release a record involves legal issues that require the governmental
3179     entity to seek legal counsel for the analysis of statutes, rules, ordinances, regulations, or case
3180     law;
3181          (g) segregating information that the requester is entitled to inspect from information
3182     that the requester is not entitled to inspect requires extensive editing; or
3183          (h) segregating information that the requester is entitled to inspect from information
3184     that the requester is not entitled to inspect requires computer programming.
3185          (7) If one of the extraordinary circumstances listed in Subsection (6) precludes
3186     approval or denial within the time specified in Subsection (4), the following time limits apply
3187     to the extraordinary circumstances:
3188          (a) for claims under Subsection (6)(a), the governmental entity currently in possession
3189     of the record shall return the record to the originating entity within five business days of the

3190     request for the return unless returning the record would impair the holder's work;
3191          (b) for claims under Subsection (6)(b), the originating governmental entity shall notify
3192     the requester when the record is available for inspection and copying;
3193          (c) for claims under Subsections (6)(c), (d), and (e), the governmental entity shall:
3194          (i) disclose the records that it has located which the requester is entitled to inspect;
3195          (ii) provide the requester with an estimate of the amount of time it will take to finish
3196     the work required to respond to the request;
3197          (iii) complete the work and disclose those records that the requester is entitled to
3198     inspect as soon as reasonably possible; and
3199          (iv) for any person that does not establish a right to an expedited response as
3200     authorized by Subsection (4), a governmental entity may choose to:
3201          (A) require the person to provide for copying of the records as provided in Subsection
3202     63G-2-201[(10)](11); or
3203          (B) treat a request for multiple records as separate record requests, and respond
3204     sequentially to each request;
3205          (d) for claims under Subsection (6)(f), the governmental entity shall either approve or
3206     deny the request within five business days after the response time specified for the original
3207     request has expired;
3208          (e) for claims under Subsection (6)(g), the governmental entity shall fulfill the request
3209     within 15 business days from the date of the original request; or
3210          (f) for claims under Subsection (6)(h), the governmental entity shall complete its
3211     programming and disclose the requested records as soon as reasonably possible.
3212          (8) (a) If a request for access is submitted to an office of a governmental entity other
3213     than that specified by rule in accordance with Subsection (3), the office shall promptly forward
3214     the request to the appropriate office.
3215          (b) If the request is forwarded promptly, the time limit for response begins when the
3216     request is received by the office specified by rule.
3217          (9) If the governmental entity fails to provide the requested records or issue a denial
3218     within the specified time period, that failure is considered the equivalent of a determination
3219     denying access to the record.

3248     process, may not continue or be renewed for any year after the first year of the multiyear

3272     exception, described in this chapter, to using a standard procurement process.
3273          (7) A multiyear contract, including any renewal periods, may not exceed a period of
