Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Information obtained by the Secretary under this chapter shall be available to the public as provided in Chapter 100 of Title 29, unless
the Secretary certifies such information to be proprietary. The Secretary may make such certification where any person shows to the
satisfaction of the Secretary that the information, or parts thereof, if made public, would divulge methods, processes or activities entitled
to protection as trade secrets or as confidential financial or commercial information. Nothing in this section shall be construed as limiting
the disclosure of information by the Secretary to any officer, employee or authorized representative of the state or federal government
to effectuate the purposes of this chapter. Furthermore, nothing in this section shall prevent the Secretary from including in the remedial
decision record information concerning the cost of the remedy or the manner in which it is performed. Prior to disclosure of information
certified by the Secretary to be proprietary to an authorized representative who is not an officer or employee of the state or federal
government, the person providing the proprietary information may require the representative to sign an agreement prohibiting disclosure
of such information to anyone not authorized by this chapter or the terms of the agreement. Such agreement shall not preclude disclosure
by the representative to any state or federal government officer or employee concerned with effecting this chapter.
