   5.  (a)  (1) A person acting pursuant to law or regulation who, subse-

 to any state agency may, at the time of  submission,  request  that  the
 agency  except  such  information from disclosure under paragraph (d) of
 subdivision two of section  eighty-seven  of  this  article.  Where  the

 information from disclosure under subdivision two of section eighty-sev-
 en  of this article. Where the request itself contains information which
 if disclosed would defeat the purpose for which the exception is sought,
 such information shall also be excepted from disclosure.
   (2) (I) The request for  an  exception  shall  be  in  writing,  SHALL
 SPECIFICALLY  IDENTIFY  WHICH  PORTIONS OF THE RECORD ARE THE SUBJECT OF
