Mr. Timothy S. Rausch UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 August 28, 2014 Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer PPL Susquehanna, LLC 769 Salem Boulevard Berwick, PA 18603-0467

SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE FOR SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 (TAC NOS. MF4426 AND MF4427)

Dear Mr. Rausch:

By letter dated July 11, 2014, 1 you submitted an affidavit executed on July 11, 2014. In this affidavit, you requested that the information contained in the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (1 0 CFR), Part 2, Section 2.390: P to the Enclosure to PLA-7191, "Projected Income Statement and Calculation of Six-Month Fixed Costs" A nonproprietary copy of this document has been placed in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC's) Public Document Room and added to the NRC Library in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).

The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:

• P contains confidential commercial information, the disclosure of which would adversely affect PPL Susquehanna, LLC.

This information has been held in confidence by PPL Susquehanna, LLC. To the extent that PPL Susquehanna, LLC has shared this information with others, it has done so on a confidential basis.

PPL Susquehanna, LLC customarily keeps such information in confidence, and there is a rational basis for holding such information in confidence. The information is not available from public sources and could not be gathered readily from other publicly available information.

Public disclosure of this information would cause substantial harm to the competitive position of PPL Susquehanna, LLC because such information has significant commercial value to PPL Susquehanna, LLC.

1 ADAMS Accession No. ML14195A110.

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 version of the submitted information marked as proprietary will be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.390(b)(5) and Section 1 03(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 301-415-4090.
