Mr. N. J. Liparulo, Manager Nuclear Safety Regulatory and Licensing Activities Box 355 Pittsburgh, PA 15230-0355

SUBJECT:

RE(UEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE (Diablo Canyon Power Plant)

REF:

CAW-94-739

Dear Mr. Liparulo:

By Pacific Gas and Electric Company application dated November 14,

1994, and Westinghouse Electric Corporation letter and affidavit (CAW-94-739) dated October 17, 1994, it is requested that the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790:

WCAP-13878, "Reliability Assessment of Potter 8 Brumfield MDR Series Relays."

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

(a)

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.

(b)

It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a

process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.),

the application of which data secures a competitive economic advantage, e.g.,

by optimization or improved marketability.

(c)

Its use by a competitor would reduce its expenditure of resources or improve its competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a

similar product.

(d)

It reveals aspects of past,

present, or future Westinghouse or customer funded development plans and programs of potential commercial value to Westinghouse.

We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.790

and, on the basis of your statements, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains trade secrets or proprietary commercial information.

Therefore, the versions of the submitted information marked as proprietary will be withheld from the public 94i22iOi33 94i2i6 PDR ADOCK 05000275 F

Hr. N. J. Liparulo December 16, 1994 disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790(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.
