FAULTS AT THE SHEARON HARRIS SITE On January 19, 1979 Hr. Bob Black phoned to report that from their investi-gations into the dam area faulting they identi.fied two additional faults.
As a result of mapping in the core trench on the downstream site a fault 4'as identified in core trench floor.'at,stations'+90 to 3+00.
This fault has been designated as Fault A-2.
In addition a fault that had initially been thought to be an extension of previously discovered Fault C (Fault C
was reported in Memo from S. Miner to 0. Parr dated November 21, 1970) was found to be a separate faul't.
This fault has been designated as Fault A-3.
,Based on,.the'i.r i,nvestigatiow,to date the,qppli,cant.concludes that both these faults are non capable within the. meaning of Appendix A to, 10 CFR-100.
Based on the information presented on this and the other faults in the dam area=we agree with the applicant that these faults are probably non capable.
A staff geologist will visit the site ta investigate the faults.
