12 Revision 0 9/16/2006 Page 2 of 13 MSFIS Configuration Management Plan 1.1 Executive Summary The purpose of the Main Steam and Feedwater Isolation System (MSFIS) Controls Replacement Project is to replace the existing Consolidated Controls MSFIS controls system with an Advanced Logic System (ALS). The replacement installation is schedule for Refuel 16, spring 2008. The MSFIS Controls Replacement Project is one aspect of an overall project to replace the existing Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV) bodies and actuators as well as the Main Feedwater Isolation Valve (MFIV) bodies and actuators.

The existing MSFIS controls system does not support the operation of the replacement MSIV and MFIV actuators.

A modified or replacement controls system is required to operate the new valve actuators.

In addition to the lack of capability, the existing MSFIS controls system is based on obsolete technology and that has become less reliable as the system ages. A recent plant trip (August 2003) was due to a failed circuit card in the existing MSFIS control system. Several single point failures exist in the existing MSFIS Controls system.1.2 Project Description The MSFIS Controls Replacement Project is replacing the existing Consolidated Controls system with an Advanced Logic System (ALS). The ALS provides several advantages over the existing system; 1) Non-obsolete,based on a technology to mitigate future obsolescence

2) Increase reliability, no single point of failure will cause a false actuation

3) Modular design to allow additional safety-related controls systems to be replaced with the ALS. This provides benefits in the form of common spares and reduced training for plant personnel

4) Reduced manual testing due to automated and interactive automated testing inherent to the ALS.The design and implementation of the replacement MSFIS Controls System is being accomplished by three independent entities working under the oversight of Wolf Creek project management and Wolf Creek design change and QA Program. The three independent entities are; 1) Platform Owner and System Design Consultant, CS Innovations

2) Qualification

& Dedication Services, Nutherm International

3) IV&V Consultant, Baseline Engineering.

A diagram of the project organization is provided in Section 1.4.1.3 Scope of Work The scope of work for the Main Steam & Feedwater Isolation System controls replacement project is to replace the existing Consolidated Controls Corporation system located in cabinets SA075A and SA075B with an Advanced Logic System (ALS). The scope of this project is limited to work within cabinets SA075A and SA075B. The replacement MSFIS Controls are to interface with the replacement MSIV and MFIV actuators.

The installation of the replacement controls is to occur during Wolf Creek Refueling Outage 16, which is in April of 2008.Revision 0 9/16/2006 Page 3 of 13 MSFIS Configuration Management Plan 1.4 Project Organization MSFIS Controls Replacement Project Organization w/Key Contacts Wolf Creek Executive Sponsor VP Engineering Terry Garret (620) 364-8831 x4084 tegarre@wcnoc.com I" V&V Consultant Baseline Engineering Tom Bums -IV&V Engineer (518) 446-1557 baseline@nycap.rr.com Qualification

Subject:

6000-00000, "ALS Level-I System Specification" dated April 2007 (CS Innovations LLC 2006 Confidential and Proprietary)

The proprietary-information for which withholding is being requested in the above referenced report is further identified in Affidavit 9100-00007 signed by the owner of the proprietary information, CS Innovations LLC. The affidavit, which accompanies this letter, sets forth the basis on which the information may be withheld from public disclosure by the Commission and addresses with specificity the considerations listed in paragraph

.(b)(4) of 10 CFR Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations.

Accordingly, this letter authorizes the utilization of the accompanying affidavit by the Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation.

Correspondence with respect to the proprietary aspects of the application for withholding or the CSI affidavit should reference this letter, 9100-00006, and should be addressed to Steen D. Sorensen, President

& CEO, CS Innovations LLC, 9150 E. Del Camino, Suite 110, Scottsdale, AZ, 85256.Very truly yours,\teen D. Sorensen President

& CEO Ref- 9100-00007 AFFIDAVIT State of Arizona County of Maricopa Before me, the undersigned authority, personally appeared Steen D. Sorensen, who, being by me duly sworn according to law, deposes and says that he is authorized to execute this Affidavit on behalf of CS Innovations LLC (CSI), and that the averments of fact set forth in this Affidavit are true and correct to the best of his knowledge, information, and belief: St D. Sorens ent & CEO Sworn to and subscribed before me this I Z" day of j, 2007 Notary Public/Page 1 of 4 Ref- 9100-00007 (1) I am President

& CEO, CS Innovations LLC (CSI), and as such, I have been specifically delegated the function of reviewing the proprietary information sought to be withheld from public disclosure in connection with nuclear power plant licensing and rule making proceedings, and am authorized to apply for its withholding on behalf of CSI.(2) 1 am making this Affidavit in conformance with the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the CSI "Application for Withholding" accompanying this Affidavit.

(3) 1 have personal knowledge of the criteria and procedures utilized by CSI in designating information as a trade secret, privileged or as confidential commercial or financial information.

(4) Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.390 of the Commission's regulations, the following is furnished for consideration by the Commission in determining the information sought to be withheld from public disclosure should be withheld.(i) The information sought to be withheld from public disclosure is owned and been held in confidence by CSI.(ii) The information is of a type customarily held in confidence by CSI and not customarily disclosure to the public. CSI has a rational basis for determining the types of information customarily held in confidence by it and, in that connection, utilizes a system to determining when and whether to hold certain types of informationin confidence.

The application of that system and substance of that system constitutes CSI policy and provides the rational basis required.Under that system, information is held in confidence if it falls in one or more of several types, the release of which might result in the loss of an existing or potential competitive advantage, as follows: (a) The information reveals the distinguishing aspects of a process (or component structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention ofits use by any of CSI's competitors without license from CSI constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies.(b) It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) the application of which data secures a competitive economic advantage, e.g. by optimization or improved marketability.

Page 2 of 4 Ref: 9100-00007 (c) Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.(d) It reveals costs or price information, production capacities, budget levels, or commercial strategies of CSI, its customers or suppliers.(e) It reveals aspects of past, present, or future CSI or customer funded development plans and programs of potential commercial value to CSI.(f) It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may be desirable.

There are sound policy reasons behind the CSI system which include the following: (a) The use of such information by CSI gives CSI a competitive advantage over its competitors.

It is, therefore, withheld from disclosure to protect the CSI competitive position.(b) It is information that is marketable in many ways. The extent to which such information is available to competitors diminishes the CSI ability to sell products and services involving the use of the information.(c) Use by our competitor would put CSI at a competitive disadvantage by reducing his expenditure of resources at our expense.(d) Each component of proprietary information pertinent to a particular competitive advantage is potentially as valuable as the total competitive advantage.

If competitors acquire components of proprietary information, any one component may be the key to the entire puzzle, thereby depriving CSI of a competitive advantage.(e) The CSI capacity to invest corporate assets in research and development depends upon the success in obtaining and maintaining a competitive advantage.(iii) The information is being transmitted to the Commission in confidence and, under the provisions of 10 CFR Section 2.390, it is to be received in confidence by the Commission.(iv) The information sought to be protected is not available in public sources or available information has not been previously employed in the same original manner or method to the best of our knowledge and belief.Page 3 of 4 Ref 9100-00007 (v) The proprietary information sought to be withheld in this submittal is that which is appropriately marked in 6000-00000, "ALS Level-I System Specification" dated April 2007 (CS Innovations LLC 2006 Confidential and Proprietary), The information is provided in support of a submittal to the Commission, being transmitted by the Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation and Application for Withholding Proprietary Information from Public Disclosure, to the Document Control Desk.This information is part of that which will enable CSI to: (a) Provide a replacement MSFIS Controls for Wolf Creek Generating Station.Further this information has substantial commercial value as follows: (a) The information requested to be withheld reveals the distinguishing aspects of a methodology which was developed by CSI.Public disclosure of this proprietary information is likely to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of CSI.The development of the technology described in part by the information is the result of applying the results of many years of experience in an intensive CSI effort and the expenditure of a considerable sum of money.In order for competitors of CSI to duplicate this information, similar technical programs would have to be performed and a significant manpower effort, having the requisite talent and experience, would have to be expended..Further the deponent sayeth not.Page 4 of 4
