Dear Mr. Burkhardt:

SUBJECT:

SAFETY SYSTEMS

FUNCTIONAL INSPECTION

FOLLOI<UP (TAC NO. 73043)

By letter dated March 28, 1989, Niagara

Mohawk responded

to the unresolved

items noted in the NRC's Safety Systems

Functional

Inspection report

50-220/88-201.

Me have reviewed your response

and have determined that

the following further information is needed

to continue our review.

I.

Unresolved

Item 88-201-2A.

The licensee

should verify that the

revised

pump performance

curves

have been

reviewed to ensure

that design

inputs are consistent with system testing results.

2.

tlnresolved

Items 88-201-2B.

The licensee's

response

states

that

NPSH calculations

indicate that

pump cavitation is expected

to exist

for 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

The licensee

should provide

a verification from the

pump manufacturer that the

pumps will be able to perform their

safety function during and following the

6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> of cavitation.

An

analysis of expected'ibration

should

be performed.

The effects of

any expected vibration should

be evaluated

with. respect

to the other

system

components.

In addition, expected

operator

actions during

and following the cavitation should

be evaluated.

In addition to

the above,

the licensee

should discuss

the capability of other plant

systems

to cool the core following a design basis accident

and the

loss of the core spray

pumps.

3.

Unresolved

Item 88-201-2C.

The licensee

should evaluate

the water

hammer analysis

and verify that it is a bounding analysis.

Specifically the licensee

should discuss

the initiation and transit

of the air volume through

a partially open isolation valve and the

core spray spargers.

In addition, the licensee

should discuss

how a

water

hammer would be identified and what operator action would be

expected

should

a water

hammer occur in this system.

The licensee

should also discuss

whether

any spurious initiations of this

system

have occurred

and whether

any water

hammer

was evident.

The reporting and/or recordkeeping

requirements

of this letter affect fewer

than ten respondents;

therefore

OHB clearance

is not required under

PL 96-511.

Upon receipt of -this letter please

provide an expected

response

date.,

Sincerely,
