MAR 5 1982 Docket Nos.:

50-206/361/362 MAR5 1982 2

Mr. A. W. Dowden 2206 Alta Vista Drive Vista, California 92083

Dear Mr. Dowden:

Your letter of January 27, 1982 to Mr. Olan D. Parr has been referred to me for reply. I am pleased to provide the following information regarding the issues you raise.

The Atomic Energy Commission (now the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or NRC) contemplated exclusion areas "'outside the immediate physical; plant of a reactor installation and its security area" at least as early as February 11, 1961, when 10 CFR Part 100 was originally proposed.

Part 100 became effective on'5/12/62 (see Enclosure 1).

The exclusion area is defined in 10 CFR 100.3(a), whIch does not require that the exclusion area boundary coincide with the nuclear plant site boundary.

Part 100.3(a) requires only that the nuclear plant licensee have the authority to determine all akfivities within the exclusion area.

With regard to the date that SCE and SDG&E became aware that an exclusion area would be required, this question is more properly put to SCE and SDG&E. However, the record indicates that in May 1963, SCE provided the AEC with a map, as part of an"amendment to the Preliminary Hazards Summary Report for San Onofre Unit 1,' which defined an "effective exclusion area" which included the plant site and the highway and railroad rights-of-way to the east of the plant site. The exclusion area was expanded when San OnofreUnits 2 and 3 were proposed. Amendment 2 to the San Onofre 2 and 3 Pretiminary Safety Analysis Report (PSAR),

dated September 16, 1970, shows a proposed exclusion area that extends to the north 1640 feet beyond the site boundary. The most recent

-change, proposed in Amendment 22 dated October TO, 1975, to the PSAR, resulted in an Exclusion area which does not extend further north than the plant site boundary (see Figure 2-3 of the NRC staff's Safety Evaluation Report for operation of San Onofre 2 and 3, Enclosure 2).
