SUBJECT:
PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION-REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE (TAC NO. MF3237)
Dear Mr. Dent:
By letter dated October 3, 2014 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML14280A230), as supplemented by letter dated October 16, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14293A063), you submitted an affidavit dated October 14, 2014, executed by Kimberly Manzione of Holtec International, requesting that certain 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:
Entergy Response to NRC Request for Additional Information (RAI), Regarding the Heavy Loads License Amendment Request (TAC NO. MF3237)
The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reason:
Information which, if used by a competitor, would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff 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 Holtec report Hl-2104715, Revision 7, Holtec drawing 8262, Revision 8, and Holtec drawing 8777, Revision 5, which is 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 301-415-1016.
