SUBJECT:

WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRIC COMPANY, REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE (EPID: L-2019-TOP-0047)

Dear Ms. Zozula:

By letter dated October 31, 2019, Westinghouse Electric Company (Westinghouse) submitted an affidavit dated November 4, 2019, executed by Korey L. Hosack, Product Line Manager, requesting 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), Part 2, Section 2.390:

WCAP-18443-P/WCAP-18443-NP, Revision 0, Qualification of the Two-Dimensional Transport Code PARAGON2 (Proprietary/Non-Proprietary)

A nonproprietary copy of this document has been placed in the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) Public Document Room and added to the NRC Library in the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System under Package Accession No. ML19308C037.

Westinghouse detailed the reasons for withholding in its affidavit.

We have reviewed your application and the material 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 versions 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.

C. Zozula 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 301-415-3151.

Sincerely,

/RA/
