Point Beach Units 1 and 2 Discussion Points Pertaining to Supplement 1 to License Amendment Request 229 Technical Specification LCO 3.5.2, ECCS - Operating and LCO 3.5.3, ECCS - Shutdown" Supplement Dated March 27, 2003

1. Residual Heat Removal (RHR) pumps In page 4 of Attachment 1, you stated that RHR pump casings do not need to be vented because they are at system low points and because of their configuration. What is the location of the high point vents with the capability of venting the RHR pumps? Do you have any diagrams and/or information that will help us to understand the venting system?
2. "Nominal amount" of noncondensible gas In page 4 of Attachment 1, you mentioned that pumping a "nominal amount" of noncondensible gas into the reactor after a SI signal or during shutdown does not significantly affect ECCS performance. Please define "nominal amount" of gas, address the location of the gas, and provide the basis for your conclusion.
