SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR WITHHOLD!NG INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE
- PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT NO.1 (TAC NO. MA3990)
Dear Mr. Myers:
I By letter from FirstEnergy dated October 27,1998 (PY-CEl/NRR-2325L), and Generai Electric Company's affidavit, executed by Glen A. Watford, dated September 21,1998, the following proprietary document was submitted: to the letter from Lew W. Myers to USNRC Document Control Desk, Proposed Revision of Minimum Critical Power Ratio Safety Limit, letter number PY-CEl/NRR-2325L, dated October 27,1998. The proprietary text has been enclosed by double brackets.
General Electric Company (GE) requested that the proprietary information be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790. GE stated that the information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons:
(4)a Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by General Electric's competitors without license from General Electric constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other
/
companies; O
(4)b Information which, if used by a competitor, would reduce his expenditure of resources or /f,[j/
improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product.
(8)
The information identified [as listed) above, is classified as proprietary because it contains details of GE's Safety Limit MCPR analysis and the corresponding results which GE has applied to Perry's actual core design with GE's fuel.
The development of the methods used in these analysis, along with the testing, development and approval of the supporting critical power correlation was achieved at a significant cost, on the order of several million dollars, to GE.
