Notes:

,,. 1) Safety components have safety related MCB manual controls via both individual soft control switches and ..r

, dedicated system level switches.

J

2) Reactor is shut down by negative moderator temperature coefficient as the coolant heats up. Requires automatic j RCS pressure relief, turbine trip, and PRHR HX actuation. Also requires manual CMT or CVS boration.

At the time this presentation was made, the information was proprietary since that description of the AP600 testing program had commercial value to Westinghouse. At this time, almost six years later, this information does not have commercial value and is no longer considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse.

Reference 2 provided the NRC assessment of the Westinghouse claim that proprietary information was provided in a letter dated December 15,1992, that contained a preliminary description of the AP600 refueling outage plan activities. The NRC assessment was that no material in the letter was specifically identified as being proprictary and that a nonproprietary versloet was not provided. At the J time this subject was being discussed with the NRC technical staff, the information was considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse since it contained information that had commercial value to Westinghouse. At this time, almost six years later, this information does not have commercial value and is no longer considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse.

Reference 3 provided the NRC assessment of the Westinghouse claim that proprietary information was provided in a letter dated February 24,1993, that contained presentation materials from the Febmany 24,1993, Westinghouse /NRC AP600 senior management meeting. The NRC assessment was that the material was similar to material that exists in the current (1998) nonproprietary version of the AP600 probabilistic risk assessment and AP600 standard safety analysis report. In addition the staffindicated the material was used by the staff in the development of the AP600 draft safety evaluation report and-m therefore should remain on the docket. Our 1995 request, Reference 4, indicated that the material provided in the Westinghouse letter of February 24,1993, was presentation material that was intended V for clarification only, not part of the formal review material and requested that the material be returned to Westinghouse. At the time this subject was being discussed with the NRC technical staff, the information was considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse since it contained information that had commercial value to Westinghouse. If this presentation material was indeed used by the staffin development of the AP600 draft final safety evaluation report in November 30,1994, then at this time, over five years later, this information is no longer considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse.

Reference 3 provided the NRC assessment of the Westinghouse claim that proprietary information was a

provided in a letter dated April 19,1993, that contained presentation materials from the April 20, 1993, AP600 overview. The NRC assessment was that the material was similar to material that exists in the current (1998) nonproprietary version of the AP600 probabilistic risk assessment and AP600 standard safety analysis report. In addition the staff indicated the material was used by the staff in the development of the AP600 draft safety evaluation report and therefore should remain on the docket.

Our 1995 request,' Reference 4, ir.dicated that the material provided in the Westinghouse letter of

- April 19,1993, was presentation material that was intended for clarification only, not part of the

-formal review material and requested that the material be retumed to Westinghouse. At the time this subject was being discussed with the NRC technical staff, the information was considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse since it contained information that had commercial value to Westinghouse. If this presentation material was indeed used by the staffin development of the AP600 draft final safety evaluation report in November 30,1994, then at this time, over five years later, this information is no longer considered to be proprietary by Westinghouse.
