CLOSEOUT FOR PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 92-01, REVISION 1, SUPPLEHENT 1
FOR THE DIABLO CANYON NUCLEAR POWER PLANT UNIT NOS..1 AND 2 (TAC NOS.
H92669 AND H92670)
Dear Hr. Rueger:
On Hay 19, 1995, the NRC issued Generic Letter 92-01, Revision 1, Supplement 1
(GL 92-01, Rev.
1, Supp.
1), "Reactor Vessel Structural Integrity."
In GL 92-01, Rev.
1, Supp.
1, the NRC requested that nuclear licensees perform a
review of their reactor pressure vessel structural (RPV) integrity assessments in order "to identify, collect, and report any new data pertinent to [the]
analysis of [the] structural integrity of their reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) and to assess the impact of that data on their RPV integrity analyses relative to the requirements of Section 50.60 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 50.60),
10 CFR 50.61, Appendices G and H to 10 CFR Part 50 (which 'encompass pressurized thermal shock (PTS) and upper shelf energy (USE) evaluations),
and any potential impact on low temperature overpressure (LTOP) limits or pressure-temperature (P-T) limits."
Hore specifically, in GL 92-01, Rev.
1, Supp.
1, the NRC requested that addressees provide the following information in their responses:
(1) a description of those actions taken or planned to locate all data relevant to the determination of RPV integrity, or an explanation of why the existing data base is considered complete as previously submitted; (2) an assessment of any change in best-estimate chemistry based on consider ation of all relevant data; (3) a determination of the need for the use of the ratio procedure in accordance with the established Position 2. 1 of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.99, Revision 2, for those licensees that use surveillance data to provide a basis for the RPV integrity evaluation; and (4) a written report providing any newly acquired data as specified above and (1) the results of any necessary revisions to the evaluations of RPV integrity in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.60, 10 CFR 50.61, Appendices G and H to 10 CFR Part 50, and any potential impact on the LTOP and P-T limits in the technical specifications, or (2) a certification that previously submitted evaluations remain valid.

'ssuance of the GL.
The information in Reporting, Items (2), '(3),
and (4) was to be submitted within 6 months of the i,ssuance of the GL..
The NRC staff has noted that Pacific Gas,, and.Electric Company submitted the information requested in Reporting Items(1) 'through',(4) on August 16, 1995.
Since Pacific Gas and Electric has submitted, the reque'sted',information,and has indicated that the previously submitted evaluations remain, valid,'the staff considers the RPV integrity data for the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos.
1 and 2, to be complete at this time..The'taff therefore concludes that no additional information regarding the structural integrity of the RPV at the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos.
1 and 2, is available at this time, and that your efforts regarding GL 92-01, ReV., 1,Supp.
1 are complete.
This completes all actions related to the referenced TAC numbers.
