. secrets and proprietary commercial information.

i Withholding from public inspection shall not affect the right, if any, of l

P rsons properly and directly concerned to inspect the document. If the need

! arises, we may send copies of this information to our consultants working in l this area. We will, of course, ensure that the consultants have signed the appropriate agreements for handling proprietary information.

If the basis for withholding this information from public inspection should change in the future such that the information could then be made available for public inspection, your should promptly notify the NRC. You should also 86o722o242 PDR ADOCK %pop ha A
