There were four areas in which additional information will be requested: (1) the technical basis for crediting 11 grouted wall penetration as an equivalent anchor for small bore piping; (2) verify that underground piping was not credited as an anchor that is equivalent to a seismic anchor; (3) describe the Quality Assurance program for the combustion turbines; and (4) verify scoping of support systems using plant and industry experience . The staff also answered numerous questions from the public regarding the methods used during the Oyster Creek audit and the license renewal process in general.
