I've already seen on these forums that an agency can basically not give out their frequency/frequencies out because that's considered not part of the FOIA. Are unit numbers also considered the same?
The reason I ask is, I'm surprised because my local police department could care less if people know all the unit numbers, some officers even are nice enough to make sure your list is right. Yet my local bus company acts all hush hush about supervisor/misc numbers and one guy claims it's against the company policy to release "sensitive" information.
What I'm curious of, even if they may be considered "sensitive", exactly how are they? I mean, personally I would think knowing all the officer numbers would be more dangerous then knowing who's on the radio at a bus company.
