Pollution and Environmental Problems, Inc., requested that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) shut' down immediately Dresden Station Units 2 and 3 and Quad Cities Station Units 1 and 2 until "essential scram discharge volume monitoring equipment" is installed.
This equipment was the subject of an October 2, 1980 "Confirmatory Order" sent to Commonwealth Edison Company (licensee) which required that the equipment be in place by I
December 1, 1980; in the interim period between October 2 and December 1,.the licensee was ordered to increase surveillance of the scram discharge volume (SDV) water level to at least once per shift.
The Commission's Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has treated this request as a request for action under 10 CFR 2.206.
Upon review of this matter, the Director has determined that shut down of the named facilities is not warranted and that continued operation of the facilities pending installation of the scram discharge volume monitor-irig equipment on December 1, 1980 will not jeopardize public health and safety. Accordingly, the request has been.denied Copies of the Director's decision are available for inspection in the Commission's Public Document Room, 1717 H Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.

A copy of the decision will also b.e filed with the Secretary for the Commission's review in accordance with. 10 CFR 2.206(c) of the Commission's regulations.
