By letter dated April 7,1999, Union Electric Company (UE) provided additional information to the NRC staff. The additional information pertains to UE's application for amendment to allow the installation of Framatome Electrosleeves in the Callaway Plant for two operating cycles. In their letter, UE provided information prepared by Framatome Technologies, Inc. (FTI), entitled
" Thermal Stability Assessment - Electrosleeved Tubes." In their letter, UE indicated that FTl 3
considered this information to be proprietary to FTI.
The UE submittal also included an affidavit dated April 5,1999, executed by you, for Framatome Technologies. Inc. which requested that this document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 0FR 2.790. ~ Since FTl determined that all of the information is proprietary, a non-proprietary version was not provided for placement in the public document room.

"b. The information reveals data or material concoming FTl research or development
)
plans or programs of present or potential competitive advantage to FTI.
j
- d. The information consists of test data or other similar data concerning a process, method or component, the application of which results in a competitive advantage to FTI.
- e. The information reveals special aspects of a process, method, component, or the
()
like, the exclusive use of which results in a competitive advantage to FTI."
}(
' We have reviewed your application and the materialin accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.790 and, on the bar,is of your statements, have determined that the submitted
. information cought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure.

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