==Dear Sir or Madam:==
By letter dated October 26, 2011 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 113081234), you submitted an affidavit dated October 20,2011, executed by Mr. Edward D. Schrull, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC (GEH), to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requesting that the information contained in the following document be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2, Section 2.390: Attachment, GNRO-2011/00090, "GEH Report NEDC-33688P, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station Power Range Neutron Monitor, Previously Developed Software Analysis and Report (GEH Proprietary Information)" Due to the extent of proprietary information contained in this document, GEH was not required to submit a nonproprietary version. The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons: a. Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by GEH's competitors without license from GEH constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies. b. Information that, if used by a competitor, would reduce their expenditure of resources or improve their competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product. We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.390 and, on the basis of the statements in the affidavit, have determined that the submitted information sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure.
