Gentlemen:
l
'You submitted two documents dated April 24 and 28, 1975, entitled
" Cycle 5 Reload and Loss-of-Coolant Accident Reevaluation Information",
and " Loss-of-Coolant Accident Analysis Reevaluation - Additional 1
Information." Your letters noted that Attachment II to the first j
'I document entitled " Responses to NRC Questions on Cycle 5 Reload" and Attachment II of the second document entitled " Additional Data Regarding the Loss-of-Coolant Accident Analysis for GE Fuel" were considered proprietary information by the Exxon Nuclear Company and General Electric Company, respectively, and requested that they be withheld from public disclosure.
The reasons for withholding this information were stated'to be:
Cycle 5 Reload:
1.
The information reveals certain distinguishing aspects of fuel design where prevention of its use by any Exxon Nuclear's competitors without license from Exxon Nuclear constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies; 2.
The information contains product design data, which data secures competitive economic advantage by design optimization and improved marketability; and 3.
The use of the information by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design and manufacture of a similar product.
+
Additional Information (ECCS) 1.
The figures contain information which is of the type which General Electric customarily maintains in confidence and withholds from j
puMic disclosure in accordance with the procedures and standards f the General Electric Proprietary Classification System; and no+

2.
The analytical methods and the data which would be compromised by disclosure of these figures were developed at considerable expense to the General Electric Company and the :elease of the information would allow competitors to conform similar designs without incurring similar expense.
The Nuclear Regulatory staff has examined the subject material and pursuant to Section 2.790(b) of 10 CFR Part 2, has approved,your requests.
Accordingly, pursuant to Section 2.790(b) of 10 CFR Part 2, we are withholding from public inspection the two documents that were included as Attachment II to your letters dated April 24 and April 28, 1975, and marked proprietary information. Withholding from public inspection shall not affect the right, if any, of persons properly and directly concerned to inspect tho documents.
Sincerely, Q
