SUBJECT:
PROGRESS ENERGY FLORIDA, INC. - REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE FOR CRYSTAL RIVER NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT NO. 3 (CR-3) (TAC NO. MD5498)
Dear Mr. Young:
By letter dated September 13, 2007, you submitted an affidavit dated September 11, 2007, executed by Gayle F. Elliott, Manager of Product Licensing for AREVA NP Inc., requesting that portions of the information contained in the following documents be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2, Section 2.390:

AREVA NP Calculation Summary Sheet 32-5031406-02: CR-3 PZR Level Sensing and Water Sampling Nozzle Repair, dated June 2007.

AREVA NP Calculation Summary Sheet 32-9043166-000: Crystal River Unit 3 Thermowell Nozzle As-Left J-Groove Weld Fracture Mechanics Analysis, dated August 2007.

AREVA NP Engineering Information Record 51-5029171-002: CR-3 Pressurizer Nozzle Repair Loose Part Evaluation, dated July 2007.
The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:
(b)
Use of the information by a competitor would permit the competitor to significantly reduce its expenditures, in time or resources, to design, produce, or market a similar product or service.
(c)
The information includes test data or analytical techniques concerning a process, methodology, or component, the application of which results in a competitive advantage for AREVA NP.
We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.390 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 information submitted in the documents outlined above 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.
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 301-415-1321.
Sincerely,
/RA/
