SUBJECT:

REQUESTS FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE IN THE FEBRUARY 6, 2018, MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC SUBMISSION (CAC NO.: MF4228, EPID: L-2014-TOP-0006)

Dear Mr. Remley:

By letter dated February 6, 2018 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML18040A479), Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (MELCO) submitted an affidavit executed on February 5, 2018, by Manabu Taniguchi, Senior Manager, Control and Protection Systems Section. The letter and affidavit requested that the 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.

JEXU-1041-1140-P, Conformance of MELTAC [Mitsubishi Electric Total Advanced Control] Platform Development to RG [Regulatory Guide] l.152 Rev. 3 MELCO indicated that a non-proprietary version was not provided because the extensive amount of proprietary information in the document would have made a nonproprietary version of little use to stakeholders.

MELCO detailed the reasons for withholding the information in the affidavit.

The NRC staff has 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, has determined that the submitted information sought 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 under 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 agency may send copies of this information to its consultants working in this area. The NRC staff 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 staff.

G. Remley You also should understand that the NRC staff 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 can be reached at 301-415-7297 or via electronic mail at Joseph.Holonich@nrc.gov.

Sincerely,

/RA/
