§ 5083. Participants in address confidentiality program
(a)If a participant in the program described in 15 V.S.A. chapter 21, subchapter 3 who is the parent of a child born during the period of program participation notifies the physician or midwife who delivers the child, or the hospital at which the child is delivered, not later than 10 days after the birth of the child, that the participant’s confidential address should not appear on the child’s birth certificate, then the address shall not be maintained in the Statewide Registration System and the State Registrar, town clerks, and any other issuing agent shall ensure the confidentiality of the address during the period of program participation in accordance with measures prescribed by the State Registrar. A participant who fails to provide such notice shall be deemed to have waived the provisions of this section.
(b)The State Registrar shall notify the Secretary of State that a program participant has given notice under this section.

(e)Upon notice of the expiration, withdrawal, invalidation, or cancellation of program participation, the State Registrar shall update the Statewide Registration System and take such other steps as may be necessary to ensure that the actual mailing address and town of residence on the birth certificate are available for public inspection and copying in accordance with section 5016 of this title.
