51 U.S.C. § 20131: Public access to information

authorized or required by Federal statute to be withheld; classified to protect the national security; or described in subsection (b). The Administrator, for a period of up to 5 years after the development of information described in paragraph (2), may provide appropriate protections against the dissemination of such information, including exemption from subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5. Information referred to in paragraph (1) is information that results from activities conducted under an agreement entered into under subsections (e) and (f) of section 20113 of this title , and that would be a trade secret or commercial or financial information that is privileged or confidential under the meaning of section 552(b)(4) of title 5 if the information had been obtained from a non-Federal party participating in such an agreement. Nothing in this chapter authorizes the withholding of information by the Administrator from the duly authorized committees of Congress.
