A. In respect to trade secrets, it is determined that the public interest served by not making said records public clearly outweighs the public interest served by the disclosure of said records.

B. Accordingly, any trade secrets acquired by the city in the course of implementation or enforcement of this ordinance shall not be made public except to that extent necessary to enforce this chapter. However, disclosure of trade secrets to other governmental agencies, including EPA, is not prohibited. Information and data provided to the city which is effluent data shall be available to the public without restriction.

C. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections A and B of this section, self-monitoring reports and all effluent data shall be available to the public. All other information submitted or which may be furnished to the city in connection with required periodic reports shall also be available to the public unless the industrial discharger satisfactorily demonstrates to the city engineer that the disclosure of such information or particular portion thereof would divulge trade secrets.
