October 16, 2018 Mr. Wren Fowler Director, Licensing NAC International 3930 East Jones Bridge Road, Suite 200 Norcross, GA 30092
SUBJECT:
APPROVAL OF NAC INTERNATIONAL REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE
Dear Mr. Fowler:
By letter dated April 11, 2017 (see Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML17116A075), you submitted an affidavit dated April 11, 2017; requesting that the information contained in the consolidated application for the Model No.
NAC-STC package be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 2, Section 2.390.
A non-proprietary copy of these documents, as appropriate, were placed in the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC's) Public Document Room and added to the ADAMS Public Electronic Reading Room.
The affidavits state that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:
Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by competitors of NAC, without license from NAC, constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies.
Information that, if used by a competitor, would reduce their expenditure of resources or improve their competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality or licensing of a similar product.
Information that reveals aspects of past, present, or future NAC customer-funded development plans and programs of potential commercial value to NAC.
We have reviewed your application in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.390 and, on the basis of your statements, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure.
Therefore, the version(s) 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.
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 of the date of public disclosure, in advance, which will be a reasonable time thereafter.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, you may contact me at 301-415-6577.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Bernard H. White IV, Senior Project Manager Spent Fuel Licensing Branch Division of Spent Fuel Management Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards Docket No. 71-9235
