+'seems Lhlhlem"~egal

Dear Mr. Crutchfield:

The Westinghouse Owners Group, of which Rochester Gas and Electric is a member, has committed to a program to address potential reactor vessel integrity concerns as identified in NRC Generic Letter 81-19.

That commitment, and the descrip-tion of the program, are contained in letter OG-58 dated May 14, 1981 from Robert W. Jurgensen,

Chairman, Westinghouse Owners Group to D.

G. Eisenhut, Director, Division of Licensing, USNRC

~

As described in the May 14 letter, all Westinghouse plans including Ginna have been shown to be capable of safely sustaining severe thermal shock transients, including repres-surization, to beyond January, 1983, at a minimum.

The Westinghouse Owners. Group program to be completed in December, 1981 will identify, for all. operating plants as identified in the May 14 report,.if future additional plant specific analyses and/or remedial actions may be required, and will provide the time in plant life when these additional actions may be needed.

Based on the results of the program, as will be provided to the NRC at the end of 1981, we will provide additional detail including a schedule for reanalyses and/or remedial action if requiredE and the basis for same.

Very truly yours, J..

Maier
