-UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 NOV 15 1984 MEMORANDUM FOR: Chairman Palladino FROM:

William J. Dircks Executive Director for Operations

SUBJECT:

DECISION REGARDING RESTART OF SAN ONOFRE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION, UNIT 1 T in response to your request of November 7, 1984, provided below are staff views on the necessary schedule for Commission action with respect to Southern California Edison Company's (SCE) capability to meet the terms set by the California Public Utilities Commission.

The PUC decision, issued on May 2, 1984, established the following requirements:

a) Return-San Onofre 1 to full service by January 1, 1985 or begin toaccrue liability up to a maximum equal to the revenues collected on San Onofre 1 for 1984.

b) Full service is defined as either "200 consecutive hours at 90%

of capacity or 30 days continuing operation at-65% of capacity."

Under the first alternative to achieve full service, the plant wou1d have to run at 90% capacity from about December 23, 1984 to January 1, 1985.

Realistically, power generation would have to begin well before that to ensure no interruptions occur during the power run.

Under the second option, Unit 1 would have to be generating electricity by December 2, 1984 and maintain an average capacity of 65% for the month.

Prior to reaching full power, there are startup tests that must be performed after criticality is achieved, including physics tests and heat balances.

The staff estimates that this process, from criticality to full power operation, would take approximately two weeks.

Based on these considerations, the staff agrees that the SCE's characterization of the schedules involved are reasonable and that prompt Commission action would be necessary if SCE is to satisfy the conditions set by the PUC.
