May 12, 1993 Docket Nos. 50-295 and 50-304 Mr. Nicholas J. Liparulo Manager of Nuclear Safety and Regulatory Activities Westinghouse Electric Corporation P.O. Box 355 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15230-0355
Dear Mr. Liparulo:
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE (CAW-93-441)
By letter dated April 27, 1993, Commonwealth Edison Company (CECO) submitted the Westinghouse report, " Zion NSSS Setpoint Evaluation Protection Systems Channels, EAGLE-21 Version Westinghouse Channels," Revision 2, March 1993, and requested that it be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790.
A letter dated April 2,1993, and an affidavit dated April 5,1993, from i
Westinghouse, the owner of the information, was included in the submittal.
Westinghouse 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.
"(c)
Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources j
or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, v
shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.
- (e)
It reveals aspects of past, present, or future Westinghouse or f
customer funded development plans-and programs of potential commercial value to Westinghouse.*
i i
We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the i
requirements of 10 CFR 2.790 and, on the basis of Westinghouse's statements, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains trade secrets or proprietary commercial information.
