This bill proposes to amend existing statutes by adding new sections to Title 9, Title 11, and Title 41 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically addressing nondisclosure agreements with private entities. The new provisions would explicitly prohibit cities, towns, counties, and the state from including certain types of information in these agreements. This information includes the private entity's water, gas, or electricity use, air or water emissions, and waste generation, including hazardous waste generation.

The bill aims to enhance transparency and public access to information regarding environmental and resource usage by private entities, thereby ensuring that critical data is not concealed under nondisclosure agreements. By establishing these restrictions, the legislation seeks to promote accountability and protect public interests related to environmental health and resource management.
