(b)

It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a process (orcomponent, structure, tool, method,etc.),the application of which data secures a corpetitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization or improved marketability.

(c)

Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or inprove his ccn'petitive position in the design, ranufacture, shipnent, installatten, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.

(d)

It reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels, or consercial strategies of Vestinghouse, its customers or suppliers.

, (f)

It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may be desirable.

(g)

It is not property of Westinghouse, but must be treated as proprietary by Westinghouse according to agreen.ents with the owner.

We have reviewed your application and the material based on the requirenents and criteria of 10 CFR 2.790 and, on the basis of Westinghouse's staterents, have detemined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains trade secrets or proprietary com ercial information.

Therefore, the version of the submitted information marked as proprietary will te withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790(b)(5) and Section 103(b) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.

Withholding from public inspection shall not affect the right, if any, of persons properly and directly concerned to inspect the docunents.

If the need arises, we may send copies of this information to our consultants working in this area. We will, or course, ensure that the consultants have signed the appropriate agreenents for handling proprietary infonration.

If the basis for withholding this information form public inspection should change in the future such that the infonnatien could then be trade available for public inspection, you should promptly notify the NRC. You should also ur.derstand that the NRC ray have cause to review this determination in the future, such as, if the scope of a Freedce of Infontation Act request includes your infonnation.

In all review situaticns, if the NRC makes a determination adverse to the above, you will be notified in advance of any public disclosure.

Sincerely, original signed by Peter S. Tam, Project Manager Project Directorate I-4 Divisicn of Reactor Projects I/II cc See next page Off LA 301-4 fM:PD1-4 PD1-4 SMr?
