    11  chapter 208 of the laws of 2022, is amended to read as follows:
    12    § 6341. Application for an extreme risk protection order.  In  accord-

    14  shall be sworn, and accompanying supporting documentation, setting forth
    15  the facts and circumstances justifying the issuance of an  extreme  risk
    16  protection  order.  Provided, however, that a petitioner [who] that is a
    17  law enforcement agency that employs  a  police  officer,  as  such  term
    18  defined  in  section  1.20 of the criminal procedure law, or is a police

    32  owns, possesses or has access to a firearm, rifle or shotgun and if  so,
    33  a request that the petitioner list or describe such firearms, rifles and
    34  shotguns, and the respective locations thereof, with as much specificity
