§ 3-11. Confidential information.

Any records or other information furnished to or obtained by the director concerning one or more air contaminant sources which relate to processes or production unique to the owner or operator or which would tend to affect adversely the competitive position of such owner or operator shall be only for the confidential use of the director, unless such owner or operator shall expressly agree to their publication or availability to the general public. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent the use of such records of information by the director in enforcing the provisions of this chapter or in compiling or publishing analyses or summaries relating to the general condition of the outdoor atmosphere or to the character of emissions, both type and quantity, of individual air contaminant sources, and a comparison of such individual source emissions with that allowed by specific emission control regulations. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent disclosure to federal or state representatives any records or information necessary for the purpose of administration of any federal or state air pollution control laws.
