UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Ms. Tanya Hamilton Site Vice President Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant 5413 Shearon Harris Road New Hill, NC 27562-0165 December 12, 2016
SUBJECT:
SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1 - REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE (CAC NO. MF8487)
Dear Ms. Hamilton:
By letter dated October 19, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML16294A218), you submitted an affidavit dated October 19, 2016, executed by Nathan E. Hottle, Manager, Product Licensing, AREVA Inc., requesting that the information contained in the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 1 O of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2, Section 2.390:, Calculation 32-9176350-003, Shearon Harris Unit 1 CRDM/CET Nozzle-As-Left J-groove Weld Analysis (PROPRIETARY)
A nonproprietary copy of this document has been placed in the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC's) Public Document Room and added to the NRC Library under ADAMS Accession No. ML16295A159.
The affidavit stated that the submitted information is considered proprietary 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.
(d)
The information reveals certain distinguishing aspects of the process, methodology, or component, the exclusive use of which provides a competitive advantage for AREVA in product optimization or marketability.
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 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 301-415-2760.
