Mr. Mano Nazar UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 January 28, 2016 President and Chief Nuclear Officer Nuclear Division NextEra Energy P.O. Box 14000 Juno Beach, FL 33408-0420
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE FOR TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT NOS. 3 AND 4 (CAC NOS. MF6783 AND MF6784)
Dear Mr. Nazar:
By letter dated October 6, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15301A261), Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) submitted an affidavit (reference CAW-15-4156) dated April 7, 2015, executed by Mr. James A Gresham, Manager, Regulatory Compliance, Westinghouse Electric Company LLC, requesting that information contained in the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 2.390: - FPL response to BVPS [Beaver Valley Power Station], FNP [Farley Nuclear Plant] and VEGP [Vogtle Electric Generating Plant] RAI [Request for Additional Information] Questions (Proprietary).
A non-proprietary version of the above document is available under ADAMS Accession No. ML15301A261 (Attachment 5).
The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:
(4)(ii)(a)
(4)(ii)(c)
The information reveals the distinguishing aspects of a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention of its use by any of Westinghouse's competitors without license from Westinghouse constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies.
Its use 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 a similar product.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has reviewed the submittal in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.390 and, on the basis of the statements in the affidavit, has determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure. Therefore, the
aforementioned document 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, the NRC may send copies of this information to its consultants working in this area. The NRC will ensure that its 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, the NRC should be promptly notified. The NRC may revisit this determination in the future if, for example, the scope of a Freedom of Information Act request includes this information. The NRC will notify you in advance of any public disclosure if the NRC makes such a determination.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (301) 415-0489 or Audrey.Klett@nrc.gov.
