Indian Point Unit No. 2 Docket No. 50-247 Document Control Desk U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Mail Station Pl-137 Washington, DC 20555

SUBJECT:

Supplemental Information To Incorporate Westinghouse Optimized Fuel Assemblies (OFA) - (TAC# M69543)

By letter dated September 30, 1988, we transmitted a document entitled "Application for Amendment to Operating License".

The Application requested an amendment to Indian Point Unit No. 2 Technical Specifications to allow a fuel design transition to Westinghouse 15x15 OFA fuel through revisions to the applicable plant operating limitations.

The safety Assessment included with that Application employed Westinghouse's Improved Thermal Design Procedure (ITDP) instrument uncertainty methodology. The methodology used for the 15X15 OFA fuel design has been generically approved by the NRC via their review of the "Reference Core Report-17X17 Optimized Fuel Assembly," WCAP-9500-A by letter dated May 22, 1981, from Robert L. Todesco of the NRC to T. M. Anderson of Westinghouse.

One of the conditions NRC imposed in accepting WCAP-9500-A as a reference document was submittal of plant-specific ITDP information.

Accordingly, transmitted as Attachment A and B to this letter, respectively, are:

  • Four (4) copies of WCAP-12003, "Westinghouse Improved Thermal Design Procedure Instrument Uncertainty Methodology for Consolidated Edison Company of New York - Indian Point 2" (proprietary), December, 1988.

Four (4) copies of WCAP-12004, "Westinghouse Improved Thermal Design Procedure Instrument Uncertainty Methodology for Consolidated Edison Company of New York -

Indian Point 2" (non-proprietary), December, 1988.

Attachment C is a Westinghouse authorization letter (CAW-88-134), a Proprietary Information Notice, and an accompanying affidavit.

Since proprietary claims as to Attachment A are asserted by Westinghouse Electric Corporation, those claims are supported by an affidavit signed by Westinghouse.

The affidavit sets forth the basis on which claim is made that the information may be withheld from public disclosure by the Commission, and addresses the considerations listed in 10 CFR Section 2.790(b)(4).

Accordingly, it is respectfully requested that Attachment A, or in the alternative such portions of Attachment A as the Commission 4901050189 8,8,1230

determined to be protected by 10 CFR Section 2.790 as proprietary to Westinghouse, be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with the Commission's regulations.

Correspondence with respect to the proprietary aspects of the Application for Withholding or the supporting Westinghouse affidavit should refer to (CAW-88-134) and should be addressed to R. A.
