Submit the completed application to: Commissioner, Department of Administration, 200 Administration Building, 50 Sherburne Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota 55155. It is strongly recommended that you prepare this application in consultation with your legal advisor. Preparation of responses to certain questions, such as those concerning "compelling need," requires knowledge of legal standards for which legal guidance is indicated. The Public Information Policy Analysis Division of the Department of Administration will conduct a preliminary review of your application to make sure it is complete and in compliance with statutory requirements. The purpose of this review is to ensure the application makes a sound argument in support of a temporary classification so that it is not disapproved by the Commissioner because of technical or procedural problems. If any problems come to light during the review, you will be advised how to bring the application into compliance with statutory requirements. You may be asked to submit additional information in support of the application, or the application may be returned to you for revision. When your application is complete and meets all statutory requirements, it will be reviewed by the Commissioner.. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 13.06, subdivision 1, if you file a new application, the data for which a nonpublic or protected nonpublic classification has been requested will receive the requested classification for a period of 45 days, or until the Commissioner approves or disapproves the application (whichever is earlier). In the case of an amended application, the time period is 20 days. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 13.06, subdivision 4, the Commissioner may consider a new application for statewide applicability. Should the Commissioner deem this approach advisable, the data for which the classification is requested will receive the requested classification for a period of 90 days, or until the commissioner approves or disapproves the application (whichever is earlier). In the case of an amended application, the time period is 20 days. THE APPLICATION YOU SUBMIT IS A PUBLIC RECORD. A copy will be sent to members of the media community and to others who have requested receipt of copies. The Commissioner provides a period of 30 days from the filing of the application for the public to continent, and all comments are considered by the Commissioner in approving or disapproving the application.
