UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Mr. Bryan C. Hanson Senior Vice President Exelon Generation Company, LLC President and Chief Nuclear Officer Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555 June 18, 2018
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE FOR THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1 (EPID L-2016-LLL-0002)
Dear Mr. Hanson:
By letter dated September 16, 2016 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML 16263A338), you submitted an affidavit dated August 22, 2016, executed by Thomas E. Ryan, Manager, Product Licensing, for AREVA Inc. 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) Section 2.390: "MRP-227-A Applicant/Licensee Action Item 7 Analysis for Three Mile Island Unit 1, Topical Report," ANP-3479P, Revision 0, Proprietary Version A non-proprietary copy of this document entitled "'MRP-227-A Application/Licensee Action Item 7 Analysis for Three Mile Island Unit 1, Topical Report,' ANP-3479NP, Revision 0, Non-Proprietary Version," contained in Attachment 2 of the letter dated September 16, 2016, has been placed in the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Public Document Room and added to the NRC Library in ADAMS at Accession No. ML 16263A319. The affidavit stated that the submitted information should be considered exempt from mandatory public disclosure for the following reasons: (b) Use of the information by a competitor would permit the competitor to significantly reduce its expenditures, in time or resources, to design, produce, or market a similar product or service. (c) The information includes test data or analytical techniques concerning a process, methodology, or component, the application of which results in a competitive advantage for AREVA. (d) The information reveals certain distinguishing aspects of a process, methodology, or component, the exclusive use of which provides a competitive advantage for AREVA in product optimization or marketability.
B. Hanson 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. Therefore, the document listed above, marked as proprietary, will be withheld from public disclosure pursuant 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 and directly concerned to inspect the documents. If the need arises, we may send copies of this information to our consultants working in 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, you should promptly notify the NRC. You also should understand that the NRC may have cause to review this determination in the future, for example, if the scope of a Freedom of Information Act request includes your information. In all review situations, if the NRC makes a determination adverse to the above, you will be notified in advance of any public disclosure. If you have any questions regarding this matter, I may be reached at by phone at 301-415-2048 or by email to Justin.Poole@nrc.gov.
