This letter refers to the safety inspection

by Mr. A. A. Varela of

this office on

R.

ED Ginna plant site.

Mr. Varela discussed

the findings of

the inspection with Mr. B. A.

and

M. Lilley in a subsequent

telephone call

on

May 22,

1987.

Areas

examined during this inspection

are described

in .the

NRC Region I

Inspection

Report enclosed with this letter.

Within these

areas,

the inspec-

tion consisted of selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observations

by the inspector.

determined that ( 1) the factors of safety for pipe support

base

plate anchor bolts in certain portions of the Standby Auxiliary Feedwater

and

the

Emergency Service Water systems

had not been evaluated

and (2) anchor

bolts in five pipe support

base plates

in portions of those

same

systems

had

not been reinspected

subsequent

to system

modifications'n

June

15,

1987, Messrs.

C. J. Cowgill and J.

R. Strosnider of this office

discussed

the above findings with Mr. P.

C.

Wi lkens

and other members of your

staff.

Based

on that telephone

conversation, it was our understanding

that

you would take the following actions to'fulfill the commitments

made in

response

to IE Bulletin 79-02.

1.

Static equivalent, analyses willbe performed

by July 6,

1987 to

demonstrate

that the subject

unanalyzed

base plate anchor bolts meet the

established

minimum factor of. safety of 2.0.

Subsequently,

Mr. P. Wilken and other members of your staff informed

Messrs

analyses

described

in

1 above

had been

completed

and that the factors of

safety for the subject anchor bolts all satisfied the established

acceptance

criteria.
