Dear Mr. Jones:

By letter dated September 9, 1977, and supplemented August 14, 1978, you provided the results of examinations on the first containment surveillance tendon sample which was removed from H. B. Robinson Unit 2.

We have reviewed the information that you submitted and we found that continuity among the-individual surveillance test was lacking and we recommend that you establish a common baseline for future tests. This baseline should be able to provide a basis to determine the movements of those reference points for monitoring the displacements of the containment and its base mat. Since the lack of continuity does not impair the structural integrity 'of the containment, and you have satisfactorily resolved our past concerns, we conclude that the<

capability of the containment to perform its function has not been impaired.

Sincerely, Original signedbV.
