Danald J. Skovholt 2-gg gg;.g After reviewing the proprieta"y and non-proprietary versicn of the docurents nnd atterpting to achieve an effective balance between legitirate concerns for p"otection of Gulf United's cc petitive position and the right of the public to be fully apprised as to the cperation of light water reactors using GU2C fuels and safety issues a.ssociated themwith, we have ccncluded that GCIFC has rade a sufficient sho ing c
that its interest could be adversely affected by disclosure of the infonration contained in the proprietary documents. We also have
['
concluded that suffic2ent infonation is contained in the nc.> proprietary versicns filed with letters dated August 21, 1973 and noverber 7, 1973, and in other non-proprietary docurents in the public mcord to advise a::
interested member of the public on the operation of light water reactors
[
such as Dresden Unit 1 using GUNFC fuels and applicable safety considerations i-associated therewith.
Based on the above, I have concluded that di.sclosure of the proprieta~y
_~
docurents transmitted by GEE lettem dated June 28 and October 15, 1973, is rot mquired in the public interest nor by 10 CFR Part 9, and they should themfore be withheld from public inspection pursuant to 2.790(b) of 10 CFR Part 2.
A letter is being sent to GEE granting the June 28 and October 15, 1973, withholding requests.
