Information and data on a user obtained from reports, surveys, wastewater discharge
permit applications, individual wastewater discharge permits, general permits, and
monitoring programs, and from the public works director's inspection and sampling
activities, shall be available to the public without restriction, unless the user
specifically requests, and is able to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the public
works director, that the release of such information would divulge information, processes,
or methods of protection entitled to protection as trade secrets under the Minnesota
Government Data Practices Act, Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13. Any such request must
be asserted at the time of submission of the information or data. When requested and
demonstrated by the user furnishing a report that such information should not be disseminated,
the portions of a report which might disclose the trade secrets or secret processes
shall not be made available for inspection by the public, but shall be made available
immediately upon request to governmental agencies for uses related to the NPDES program
or pretreatment program, and in enforcement proceedings involving the person furnishing
the report. Wastewater constituents and characteristics and other effluent data, as
defined in 40 C.F.R. 2.302 shall not be recognized as not public data and shall be
available to the public without restriction.
