(b) The department and the board may utilize any information obtained pursuant to this part to develop data on the generation or disposal of hazardous or extremely hazardous waste within the state. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, the department may make waste generation and disposal data available to the public.

(c) It shall be unlawful for the board, the department, or any person having an administrative duty under this part to make known, in any manner whatever, the business affairs, operations, or any other information pertaining to a taxpayer which was submitted to the board in a report or return required by this part, or to permit any return or copy thereof or any book containing any abstract or particulars thereof to be seen or examined by any person not expressly authorized by subdivision (a) and this subdivision. However, the Governor may, by general or special order, authorize examination of the records maintained by the board under this part by other state officers, by tax officers of another state, by the federal government, if a reciprocal arrangement exists, or by any other person.
