.,;.----* APR 16 iOOa As you know, our staff conducted an on-site RPS review at the Calvert Cliffs and St. Lucie units. A copy of the resultant Safety Evaluation for St. Lucie, presenting the finding of the RPS review (pages 3 to 5),

is provided for your information as Enclosure 2.

Our conclusion was that allowing indefinite bypass of one of the four RPS is not justified, hut since the four channel CE_ system does have some independence, bypassing for 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> during testing or maintenance of one RPS channel is justified.

As an alternative to the requested review of RPS and ESFAS channel separation, we will consider issuance of the Calvert Cliffs and St. Lucie type TS for your RPS and ESFAS if you provide an application including documentatfon ofdesign similarity to those of Calvert Cliffs arid St.

Lucie.

Enclostire 3 provides sample TS for your use.

Any such application should be submitted within the same 90 days of your receipt of this letter.

If your have questions on this subject, please contact your NRC Project Manager.
