89 EAST AVENUE, ROCHESTER, N.Y. I4649 TCI.CPwOMC Ance CONC VIS 546-2700 May 23, 1980 Mr. Eldon J. Brunner, Chief Reactor Operations and Nuclear Support. Branch U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region 1

631 Park Avenue King of Prussia, Pennsylvania 19406

Subject:

IE Inspection No. 50-244/78-24 R.E.

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nl Docket No. 50-244

Dear Mr. Brunner:

In reference to our letter of December 29, 1978 concerning the storage of non duplicate records from Ginna Station I have the following to report.

The Ginna QA Program currently endorses Regulatory Guide 1.88 Rev.

2 which specifies a four hour minimum fire rated facility.

A recent draft revision to ANSI N45.2.9 is relaxing the four hour requirement to two hour rating.

In addition, NRC revision 1 of NUREG-75/087 provides fire protection alternatives to Regulatory Guide 1.88 in paragraph 17.4.

These alternatives utilize the two hour fire rating requirement of the proposed N45.2.9 standard revision consistent wi'th NFPA No.

232 guidelines.

The NRC alternative described in paragraph 17.4 would provide some economical benefits in the new record storage facility.

We plan to use these alternatives in our design as meeting our current commitments to Regulatory Guide 1.88.

In reference to the attached letter of September 19, 1979 from the NRC, this room will comply with paragraph 17.4 as an alternative.

The storage room will be built on the second floor of our Andrews Street building warehouse facility located in downtown Rochester.
