ENCLOSURE COMMENTS ON SEP TOPICS XV Topic XV-3, Loss of Load Topic XV-19, Loss of Coolant Accident (Systems)

The licensing bases assumed for these safety evaluation reports correctly reflect the characteristics of the as-built facility.

Topic XV-4, Loss of Non-Emergency AC Power to Station Auxiliaries The safety evaluation report on Topic XV-4 needs to list the reference:

Letter from W. C. Moody, Southern California Edison Company, to Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, NRC, Attention D. M. Crutchfield,

Subject:

Design Basis Event Review, SEP, San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1, dated July 1, 1981.

This reference supports the second and third paragraphs of Section V of the SER.

Topic XV-8, Control Rod Misoperation The licensing bases assumed correctly reflect the characteristics of the as-built facility.

Topic XV-12, Spectrum of Control Rod Ejection Accidents.

Topic XV-12 had an error in terminology and errors in fuel temperatures. The last sentence of the first paragraph on "Evaluation," should be:

"The maximum fuel clad temperatures ranged from 1305 0 F for the zero power, end of life case to 21090 F for the full power, beginning of life case; the maximum fuel temperatures (pellet centers) were 1792oF and 4491oF respectively and the average fuel temperatures (pellet) were 1580oF and 34020F.

Topic XV-16, Radiological Consequences of Failure of Small Lines Carrying Primary Coolant Outside Containment-San Onofre Unit 1 We feel that understanding of the "Evaluation" section of the SER on Topic XV-16 would be clarified by adding phrases thus:

"...We assumed that an iodine spike occurred...500-fold increase based on Technical Specifications concentrations in the iodine release...Section 15.6.2.

We assumed...environment was that contained in the maximum flashing fraction, 38%...."
