AFFIDAVIT I, Thomas J. Martin,.being duly sworn, depose and state as follows:-
J (1)
I am Vice President - Engineering and Construction of
- Public Service. Electric and Gas Company.
I have been delegated the function of reviewing the proprietary information sought to be withheld from public
~
disclosure in connection with nuclear power plant licensing.
(2)
I am making this Affidavit in conformance with the revisions of 10CFR Section 2.790 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the Public Service l
Electric and-Gas application for withholding accompanying this Affidavit.
(3)
I have personal knowledge of the criteria and procedures utilized by Public Service Electric and Gas
-Company in designating information as a trade secret, privileged or as confidential commercial or financial information.
l s
u (4)
. Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, the following is furnishad for consideration by the Commission in determining whether the information sought to be withheld from public disclosure should be-withheld.
(i)
The' information sought to be withheld from public disclosure is owned and has been held in confidence by Public Service Electric and Gas.
l (ii) The information is of a type held in confidence by Public Service Electric and Gas and not disclosed-to the public.
Public Service Electric and Gas I
has a rational basis for determining the types of information held in confidence.by it and, in'that connection, utilizes a system to determine when and whether to hold certain types of information in confidence.
The application of that system and the substance of that system constitutes Public Service Electric and Gas policy and provides the rational basis required.
(5)
Under this system, some examples of categories of information which fit into-the definition of proprietary information are:
4
r-
.a.
Information consisting of supporting data and analyses, including test data, relative to a process, method or apparatus, the application of which provide a competitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization or improved marketability; b.
Information which if used by a competitor, would reduce his expenditure of resources in the licensing of a similar product; c.
Information which reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels or commercial strategies of Public Service Electric and Gas Company.
d.
Information which discloses patentable subject matter for which -it may be desirable to obtain patent protection; e.
Information which Public Service Electric and Gas must treat as proprietary according to agreements with other parties.
(6)
The document mentioned in paragraph 9 below has been evaluated in accordance with the above system and has been found to contain information which is proprietary and which is customarily held in confidence by Public Service Electric and Gas.
(7)
The information is being transmitted to the Commission in confidence and, under the provisions of 10CFR Section 2.790, it is to be received in confidence by the Commission.
(8)
The information sought to be protected is not available in public sources to the best of our knowledge and belief.
(9)
The proprietary information sought to be withheld in this submittal is " Test Report on Cable and Raceway Physical Separation Verification Testing for use in Public Service Electric and Gas Company's Hope Creek Generating Station," dated March 1985, prepared by Wyle laboratories.
The subject information could only be duplicated by competitors if they were to invest time and effort equivalent to that invested by Public Service Electric and Gas.
7 (10) Publicfdisclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to the o
competitive position of Public Service Electric and Gas Company and deprive or reduce the' availability of profit making opportunities.
-The matters set forth in this af fidavit are true to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief.
Respectfully submitted, Public Service Electric and Gas Company By:
Thomas Jp' Martin Vice President -
Engineering and Construction Sworn to and subscribed before me, a Notary Public of New Jersey, this VT2 day of April 1985.
