(a) If the Department finds that disclosure of confidential information would serve to alleviate an imminent and substantial danger to public health, safety or the environment, the Department may, in its discretion, take one or more of the following actions:
1. Reduce the time allotted for providing substantiation pursuant to 7:26-17.9, and notify the claimant of such reduction;
2. Advance the date on which the Department may disclose information which the Department has determined is not confidential information, pursuant to 7:26-17.10(a), and notify the claimant of such advance; or
3. Immediately disclose the confidential information to any person whose role in alleviating the danger to public health and the environment makes such disclosure necessary. Any disclosure pursuant to this paragraph shall be limited to information necessary to enable the person to whom it is disclosed to carry out the activities in alleviating the danger. Any disclosure made pursuant to this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver of a confidentiality claim and shall not be grounds for any determination that information is no longer confidential information.
