  "definition": "Information requests are defined as an enforceable, written request for information to a regulated entity or potentially regulated entity or about a site, facility, or activity. Information requests may be warranted when an inspection or record review suggests the potential for serious, widespread, and/or continuing civil or criminal violations, from a continuing pattern of non-compliance by a facility, by a referral from another agency, or from a study or studies conducted by the regulating agency inferring a potential compliance problem. These requests normally ask for information on facility operations, records, reports, or other documents to verify or substantiate the compliance status of the facility or the site.",
