Riccardella- 2 -secures a competitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization orimproved marketability.(c)Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources orimprove his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.(d)It reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels,or commercial strategies of SI, its customers or suppliers.(e)It reveals aspects of past, present, or future SI or customer fundeddevelopment plans and programs of potential commercial value to SI.(f)It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may bedesirable.We have reviewed your application and the material in accordance with the requirements of10 CFR 2.390 and, on the basis of your statements, have determined that the submittedinformation sought to be withheld contains proprietary commercial information and should be withheld from public disclosure. Therefore, the four drawings marked as proprietary, will be withheld from public disclosurepursuant to 10 CFR 2.390(b)(5) and Section 103(b) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. Withholding from public inspection shall not affect the right, if any, of persons properly anddirectly concerned to inspect the documents.
