Confidential information

(1) The licensee and interested parties may request confidential treatment for any commercially sensitive information submitted in a FTRP or an ARP. (2) When filing information it is deemed to be confidential, the licensee or an interested party shall submit a petition for confidential treatment that sets forth the justification for confidential treatment and shall clearly mark the information it deems to be confidential. (3) Only such information as is commercially sensitive should be marked as confidential and, where only a portion of a document includes confidential information, an expurgated copy shall be filed with the full document. (4) Confidential information shall be treated confidentially unless, within five days of receipt of the petition and the information marked as confidential, the Commission finds that the information is not commercially sensitive and so notifies the person who submitted the information in writing in which case, the person who submitted the information may withdraw the information by written notice to the Commission within two days of the Commission’s findings, instead of having it disclosed; and information so withdrawn shall not be considered by the Commission in making a determination or decision. (5) No inference may be drawn from the decision of the petitioner to withdraw such information from the consideration of the Commission. Electricity 33
