September 8, 2006 Mr. Jens G. M. Andersen TRACG Development Global Nuclear Fuel - Americas, LLC Castle Hayne Road Wilmington, NC 28401
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE - LASALLE COUNTY STATION, UNIT 1 (TAC NO. MC2284)
Dear Mr. Andersen:
By letter to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) dated March 8, 2004, Exelon Generation Company, LLC submitted an affidavit dated January 14, 2004, executed by you requesting that the information contained in the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2, Section 2.390(a)(4):
Core Operating Limits Report for LaSalle Unit 1 Cycle 11 A nonproprietary copy of this document has been placed in the NRC's Public Document Room and added to the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Public Electronic Reading Room.
The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:
(a)
The information sought to be withheld is being submitted to NRC in confidence.
The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GNF-A [Global Nuclear Fuel - Americas], and is in fact so held.
(b)
The information identified is classified as proprietary because it contains details of GNF-As fuel design and licensing methodology.
(c)
Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to GNF-As competitive position and foreclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities.
We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.390(a)(4) and, on the basis of the statements in the affidavit, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure.
Therefore, the version of the submitted information marked as proprietary will be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.390(b)(5) and Section 103(b) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.
J. Andersen Withholding from public inspection shall not affect the right, if any, of persons properly and directly concerned to inspect the documents. If the need arises, we may send copies of this information to our consultants working in this area. We will, of course, ensure that the consultants have signed the appropriate agreements for handling proprietary information.
If the basis for withholding this information from public inspection should change in the future such that the information could then be made available for public inspection, you should promptly notify the NRC. You also should understand that the NRC may have cause to review this determination in the future, for example, if the scope of a Freedom of Information Act request includes your information. In all review situations, if the NRC makes a determination adverse to the above, you will be notified in advance of any public disclosure.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, I may be reached at 301-415-3154.
Sincerely,
/RA/
