A. Possible criminal activity, and is disclosed to a federal, state, or local law enforcement or prosecutorial official or authority;

B. A possible violation of law, and is disclosed to a federal, state, or local authority that has jurisdiction over the individual whose conduct may be a violation, and the information disclosed is limited to information relevant to the possible violation by that individual; or

C. Conduct by an individual which the Board reasonably believes may pose a risk to the public health, safety, or welfare, and is disclosed to a law enforcement authority, administrative official or agency that regulates the individual, or to a hospital or other health care facility where the individual has privileges.
