(a) Any person giving custody or ownership of
				information to the agency shall indicate any desire that it be designated
				confidential information and not publicly disclosed, but failure to so indicate

				from but attached to the information;
(2) specifically indicate those parts of the
				information which should be kept confidential;

				time;
(4) cite and discuss (i) the
				provisions of the Public Records Act (California Government Code 6250 et seq.)
				or other law that allows the agency to keep the information confidential, and
				(ii) the public interest in nondisclosure of the information. If it is believed
				that the record should not be disclosed because it contains trade secrets or
				its disclosure would otherwise cause loss of a competitive advantage, the
				request shall also state the specific nature of the advantage and how it would
				be lost, including the value of the information to the requesting party, and
				the ease or difficulty with which the information could be legitimately
				acquired or duplicated by others;
(5) state whether and how the information is
				kept confidential by the requesting party and whether it has ever been
				disclosed to a person other than an employee of the requesting party, and if so
				under what circumstances;

				contain the following certification executed by the person primarily
				responsible for preparing the request: "I certify under penalty of perjury that
				the information contained in this request for confidential designation is true,
				correct, and complete to the best of my knowledge, and that I am authorized to
				make this request and certification on behalf of [name of entity]";
				and
(7) specify whether the person
				submitting the request wishes the information returned or disclosed upon a
				denial of confidential designation; information returned to requesting party
				shall not be considered or reviewed as part of any application for grant
				funding to the agency.

				requires inspection of the information.
(2) Persons under contract to the agency
				whose work for the agency requires inspection of the information and who agree

				employees whose agency work requires inspection of the information. On behalf
				of the agency the secretary shall be permitted to request and agree to maintain
				the confidentiality of other agencies' confidential information.
(4) Any person, provided that either (i) the
				requesting party has consented in writing to the disclosure, or (ii) the
				secretary, after prior notice to the requesting party and opportunity for the
				requesting party to be heard, determines that such information is not exempt
				from disclosure under the Public Records Act and the public interest in
