2 CAPPING DOWNCOMERS

Dear Mr. Schwencer:

Confirming a telephone conversation with Mr. Farouk Eltawila of the Containment Systems Branch, this is to advise you that it will be necessary to cap three downcomers to eliminate LOCA jet loads on ECCS suction piping in the wetwell.

The three downcomers direct discharging water, air, and steam during a

LOCA onto the

LPCS, HPCS, and RHR-C suction lines which partially obstruct the downcomer exit a short distance below the ends of khe downcomers.

In order to eliminate the postulated LOCA jet loads which would be applied to these lines, it has

'een decided to cap downcomers by sealing the entrance to the downcomers above the diaphragm floor.

This will be accomplished by welding a 1/4-inch plate to the jet deflector. 'he effect on drywell pressurization following a LOCA, due to the approximately 3/ reduction in vent area, has been evaluated and found not to be significant.

This will be docu-mented in a future revision to the FSAR.

Very truly yours,

~D'Ba G.
