Mr. Nicholas J. Liparulo Manager of Equipment Design and Regulatory Engineering Westinghouse Electric Corporation P.O. Box 355 Pittsburgh, PA 15230-0355 SUBJECT. REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE JOSEPH M. FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2
Dear Mr. Liparulo:
By your application dated February 10,1997 (CAW-97-1077), and affidavit dated February 11, 1997, you submitted " Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Safety Analysir intermediate Range Neutron Flux Reactor Trip Setpoint Change," NSA-SSO-96-524, Rev.1 (Proprietary) and requested that it be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790. You also submitted a nonproprietary version (NSA SSO-96-525, Rev.1) which will be placed in the l
NRC's Public Document Room for pub"c inspection.
You stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the l'cIlowing reasons:
1.
The information reveals the distir.guishing aspects of a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention of its use by any of Westinghouse's competitors without license from Westinghouse constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies.
2.
The information's use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitivo position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.
We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.790 and, on the basis of Westinghouse's statements, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information.
Therefore, the /ersion of the submitted ir. formation marked as proprietary will be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790(b)(5) and Section 103(b) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as r. mended.
