(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the tax administrator may, on a quarterly basis:
(1) Prepare a list of the delinquent taxpayers under chapter 30 of this title who owe at least fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) of state tax and whose taxes have been unpaid for a period in excess of ninety (90) days following the date their tax was due.
(2) Prepare a list of the delinquent taxpayers collectively under chapters 11-15 and 17, 18, and 20 of this title, who owe at least fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) of state tax and whose taxes have been unpaid for a period in excess of ninety (90) days following the date their tax was due.
(3) Each list may contain the name and address of each delinquent taxpayer, the type of tax levied, and the amount of the delinquency, including interest and penalty, as of the end of the quarter. No taxpayer shall be included on such list if the tax assessment in question is the subject of an appeal.
(b) The tax administrator shall not list any delinquent taxpayer until such time as he or she gives the delinquent taxpayer thirty (30) days' notice of intent to publish the taxpayer's delinquency. Said notice shall be sent to the taxpayer's last known address by regular and certified mail. If during said thirty-day (30) period the taxpayer makes satisfactory arrangement for payment of the delinquent tax, the name of such taxpayer shall not be published as long as the taxpayer does not default on any payment agreement entered into with the division of taxation.
(c) Any such list prepared by the tax division shall be available to the public for inspection by any person and may be published by the tax administrator on the tax division website.
