Subject:

Containment Vessel Tendon Evaluation Program Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-244

Dear Mr. Crutchfield:

This letter confirms a conference call held on February 3

between representatives of RGB, our architect/engineer Gilbert Associates, and you',and members of your Staff regarding the Ginna post-tensioned containment tendons.

We'escribed our plan to implement a program for monitoring the tendons.

The following is the sequence of measures we plan to undertake to implement the program:

1)

Test existing load cells on tendons 53, 93 and 133 for operability.

2)

Remove load cell from tendon 13 (currently inoperable) and send to a laboratory for regaging.

3)

Instrument the tendon jacking system pull-rod with a strain gage and calibrate.

4)

Reinstall load cell on tendon 13 and calibrate all four load cells with the modified pull-rod.

5)

Connect load cells to a recording system.

6)

Record load cell data once each working day (5 days per week during a.normal week).

7)

Review load cell data on a weekly, basis for trends.

We will notify the NRC if the data indicate a significant loss of prestress before it reaches the technical speci-fication level of (0.6)

GUTS.

Error in the system is estimated at k2%.
