DEF contends 	that 	the 	information contained 	in Document No. 04564-2026 	constitutes
proprietary and confidential business information 	entitled 	to protection under Section 366.093,

competitive business 	interests which could be used by competitors 	to gain 	confidential, 	internal
information. More 	specifically, 	the 	information 	for which 	confidentiality 	is 	sought 	contains
contractual 	documents 	for 	a 	potential 	large 	load 	customer. 	For 	this 	reason, DEF 	argues 	the
information 	is entitled to confidential classification pursuant to Section 366.093(e), F.S.
Ruling

confidential 	and 	shall be 	exempt from 	Chapter 	119, 	F.S. 	Section 	366.093(3), 	F.S., 	defines
proprietary confidential business information as information that 	is intended to be and 	is treated
by 	the company 	as 	private, 	in 	that 	disclosure 	of 	the 	information would 	cause harm 	to 	the
company’s 	ratepayers 	or 	business 	operations, and 	has 	not been 	voluntarily 	disclosed 	to 	the
public. 	Section 	366.093(3), 	F.S., 	provides 	that 	proprietary 	confidential 	business 	information
includes, but 	is not limited 	to:
(d) 	Information concerning bids or other contractual data, the disclosure of which
would impair the 	efforts of the public 	utility or 	its 	affiliates 	to contract for goods
or services on favorable terms.
(e) 	Infonnation 	relating 	to competitive 	interests, 	the 	disclosure of which would
impair the competitive business of the provider of the information.
