ENCLOSURE NOTICE OF DEVIATION Duke Power Company Docket Nos. 50-269, 270, and 287 Oconee 1, 2, and 3 License Nos.

states in part that those portions of Engineered Safeguards Systems which may see recirculated reactor building sump water following a Loss of Coolant Accident are required to be Class II (Duke Class B).

Contrary to the above, the portions of the Unit 1 and Unit 3 low pressure injection systems between check valves LP-29/30 and motor operated valves LP-21/22 are classified as Class III (Duke Class C),

even though this piping may see recirculated reactor building sump water following a Loss of Coolant Accident.

This Deviation is applicable to Units 1 and 3.

B.

Final Safety Analysis Report, section 3.2.2.1, "System Classifications,"
