SUBJECT:
SEISMIC QUALIFICATION OF STANDPIPE SYSTEM We recently received a transcript of the Independent Design Review meeting held on February 25.
1981 to d) scuss the Palo Verde Fire Protection System.
In reviewing this transcript.
we noted that some misinformation was inadvertently given to the Board on the Palo Verde standpipe system.
During the meeting, an NRC observer stated that the Palo Verde standpipe system is required to be seismically designed.
This is not correct.
Seismically qualified standpipe systems are required only for facilities which received a
construction permit after July 1, 1976 or for facilities which are located in seismically active regions.
If you have any questions on this matter, please contact us.
