§ 75-56-25 - Furnishing statement of formulae or other suitable evidence; confidentiality requirements

The State Chemist may, if required for the analysis of antifreeze or engine coolant or prediluted antifreeze or prediluted engine coolant for the purposes of registration, require the applicant to furnish a statement of the formula of such product, unless the applicant can furnish other satisfactory evidence that such product is not adulterated or misbranded. Such statement shall state the content of inhibitor ingredients in generic terms if such inhibitor ingredients total less than five percent (5%) by weight of the antifreeze or engine coolant or prediluted antifreeze or prediluted engine coolant. In lieu of a detailed product description, the State Chemist may allow the registrant to furnish other evidence which satisfactorily meets his requirements. All statements pertaining to the formula furnished under this section shall be privileged and confidential and shall not be made public or open to the inspection of any person, firm, association or corporation other than the enforcement agency. No such statement shall be subject to subpoena nor shall the same be exhibited or disclosed before any administrative or judicial tribunal by virtue of any order or subpoena of such tribunal unless with the consent of the applicant furnishing such statement to the State Chemist. The disclosure of any such information, except as provided in this section, shall constitute a misdemeanor.
