4 Public disclosure of the infonnation would cause substantial harm to the competitive position of General Electric.

We have reviewed your application and the material based on the requirements and criteria of 10 CFR 2.790 and, on the basis of General Electric's statements, have determined that the submitted infonnation sought to be withheld contains trade secrets or proprietary corrinerical infomation.

Therefore, the Technical Specifications improvement Analysis for the Reactor Protection System for Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant, Unit 1, marked as proprietary, will be witheid from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790 (b)(5) and Section 103 (b) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended.
