SUBJECT:

RESPONSE TO NRC GENERIC LETTER 89-06 ON THE SAFETY PARAMETER DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR BYRON, BRAIDWOOD AND DRESDEN (MPA F-072, TAC NOS. 73639, 73640, 73632, 73633, 73653 AND 73654)

NRC Generic Letter (GL) 89-06, dated April 12, 1989, requested you to provide certification regarding the implementation of a Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) at your facility. The GL and its attachment, NUREG-1342, provided clarification of the requirements for an acceptable SPDS as originally defined in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, issued January 1983.

The GL further requested you to complete a checklist and take photographs of your SPDS and to retain these records for three years from the date of certification.

On July 11, 1989, Commonwealth Edison Company certified that the SPDS at Byron, Braidwood and Dresden fully meets the requirements of NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, taking into account the information provided in NUREG-1342.

Based upon this certification, the NRC staff concludes that these facilities have satisfactorily met all the requirements for an SPDS specified in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1. Therefore, staff review and licensee implemen-tation of the SPDS are considered complete for these facilities. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely, Isl Paul C. Shemanski, Project Manager Project Directorate III-2 Division of Reactor Projects - III, IV, V and Special Projects Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation cc:
