4 Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) her^ov tubmits its Firewatch Investigation Report, detailing all invewLigative work, findings, and corrective actions relating to firewatch performance i.

i issues at the Salem and Hope Creek Generating Stations.

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.790 (a) (6) , PSE&G is

  • requesting that the attached Report be withheld from public disclosure. The Report specifically identifies current and former i employees at the site and contains personal information - the-1 public release of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of the privacy of those individuals identified. The release of personal information would also result in increased i

! witness reticence during interviews thereby seriously impeding the j ability of PSEEG and the NRC to gather facts and investigate future safety matters or other issues. Additionally, the Report divulges PSE&G's investigative plan and techniques which, if released, would l

i decrease the effectiveness of its corporate and site protection investigative functions.

l 1

i. For the foregoing reasons, the Firewatch Investigation Report j should be withheld. In the event that the NRC determine not'to i

grant this request for withholding, PSE&G requests, in accordance i

with the provisions of 10 CFR 2.790 (c), that the subject report be

! returned. .
