- Mark, I understand why you made the decision you made, and I didn't intend to question it. What I really want to know is: Can we change the classification? I would imagine you've seen the letter from Entergy asking for information on the CFAST modelling of their fire areas. I'm trying to get them an answer by Friday (4/11) so that we can keep moving forward towards a Regulatory Conference. That attachment to the TIA response would supply answers to some of their questions. Under todays rules for classifying documents, would we still consider the attachment sensitive'?
- Thanks, Charlie

I believe we did that for a number of reasons including:
- 1. Its a pre-decisional matter
'2. If the inspection of a NPP identifies a potential fire vulnerability, and we can show where & how big a, fire you need to cause unacceptable consequences, then from a security standpoint, its conservative &
prudent to mark it sensitive.
Those were our concerns & we tried to error conservative.

- Charles,
.,Good question. I also see that it is marked as sensitive in ADAMS, which is unexpected to me (in addition
\\_. I to non-public, which is expected). SPLB - can you tell us why you have the July 18. 2002, memo marked as senstive In ADAMS?

V Tom, is marked "Sensitive". Are you sure it's okay to send that to the licensee?

t Rebecca,
\\ Naeem lqbal (Plant Systems Branch, NRR) tells me that Attachment 3 to the 09/25/02 NRR TIA response f to Region IV contains the information the licensee is asking for in Items 1 and 3 of the licensee's 04/02/03 letter (i.e., CFAST inputs, assumptions and results for zones 99M and 98J; and sensitivity analysis for zone 99M). The accession number for Attachment 3 is ML021990405 (July 18, 2002 memo from Weiss to Reinhart on Supplemental Fire Modeling).
Doug Coe (Inspection Program Branch, NRR) tells me that it is acceptable to provide the licensee with information that shows how we did our analyses, and that Region IV should reply by letter to the licensee's v-04/02/03 letter (if Region IV decides to provide information), and anything we give to ANO should also be J
placed in the PDR. I understand from Naeem that SPLB doesn't have any concern with providing (or portions of it, if this is more appropriate) to the licensee.
I tried to call you to explain the above. Call me if you have any questions.

I hear you're coordinating the HQ attendance at the reg conference. Thanks. Do you need any help? I'm in the ofc this week and can help if you need anything. Do you know who's coming, yet?
Did you get the letter from ANO asking for info? If not, I can fax it to you. Is John Hannon's group going to provide answers to #1 ?
