ENCLOSURE REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ISSUES RELATED TO ONE TIME EXTENSION OF DIESEL GENERATOR ALLOWED OUTAGE TIME COOPER NUCLEAR STATION DOCKET NO. 50-298 (1) In Section 4.3 of the amendment request the licensee states that the temporary equipment required to perform diesel fuel movement will be located on an area of engineered fill, which is resistant to damage caused by seismic events. The licensee is requested to provide the basis for this statement, including a discussion of the level of earthquake ground motion and the load transfer between the tank and the engineered fill. The licensee is also requested to discuss the basis for the statement that the temporary equipment will remain functional during seismic events at this location, including a description of the evaluation of the ability of temporary piping and above-ground tank anchorages to withstand seismic loadings.
(2) The licensee is requested to provide bearing pressure and soil settlement data that might have been taken at the engineered fill location to assure that differential settlement is not occurring at this time and the soil bearing pressure is adequate to support the temporary equipment in a stable manner.
