Additional Information Request Concerning Response to IEB 85-03, "Motor-Operated Valve Common Mode Failures Dur'ing Plant Transients Due to Improper Switching" R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-244

Dear Mr. Stahle:

Your letter dated December 8, 1988 requested that the response to Question 2 of our October 9, 1987 lettei be revised. As mentioned in our October 9, 1987 response, the effect of water hammer due to valve closure was considered to be negligible due to the slow closure times of the valves involved. Since the effect was considered negligible, it was not added to the static pressure drop calculated for valve closure ~

The thirty valves tested in the IEB 85-03 program have an average closure stroke time of 18. 29 seconds. The fastest valves stroke in 5.81 seconds. The slowest stroke is 31.68 seconds. These times are judged to be slow enough to preclude any water hammer effects. Also, plant experience during valve closure has not indicated any problems attributable to water hammer.

Very truly yours, 890ii90346 890i06 Robert C. ecre PDR ADOCK 05000244 P PNU General Manager Nuclear Production RWE~012 xc: U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region I 475 Allendale Road King of Prussia, PA 19406 Ginna Senior Resident Inspector I 0
