Dear Mr. Van Brunt:
SUBJECT:
TMI ACTION PLAN ITEM II.K.3.30, SMALL BREAK LOCA ANALYSIS AND II.K.3.31, PLANT ANALYSIS On June 20, 1985, the NRC found acceptable the Combustion Engineering Owners Group (GEOG) submittal, CEN-203, which justified continued acceptance of the CE small break LOCA model (CEFLASH-4AS) in meeting the requirements of TMI Action Item II.K.3.30.
This acceptance, however, is pending a confirmatory benchmark analysis to demonstrate good agreement between CEFLASH-4AS and the data from Semiscale test S-UT-08.
On March 11, 1985, R.
W. Wells as Chairman of GEOG committed to the performance of the validation and projected a
December 1985 schedule for submittal of a report on this effort.
On July 16, 1985, you also provided a letter referencing the GEOG March 11, 1985 letter and committing to the validation of the CEFLASH-4AS agreement with the S-UT-08 test.
Pending the successful validation of the CEFLASH-4AS and based on our understanding that CEFLASH-4AS was used for the Palo Verde
- plant, we find that you have met the requirements of TMI Action Item Action Item II.K.3.30 and a plant specific analysis is not required for TMI Action Item II.K.3.31.
These items are therefore complete.
Please advise this office within 30 days of receipt of this letter, or upon unsuccessful validation of the model, if for any reason our understanding is not correct, and provide you plans and schedule for completing II.K.3.30 and II.K.3.31.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, you should contact Mr. E. Licitra, the Licensing Project Manager.
Sincerely, cc:
