Gentlemen:

Subject:

Inspection 50-311/78-46

This refers to your letter dated January 16, 1979, in response to our

letter dated December 15, 1978~

Your letter states that strain gage measurements

11were not considered a

formal *part of the Structural Integrity Test

11

However, your commitments

in Amendent 38 of the Salem Generating Station FSAR (Question 5.20)

indicate that due to equipment layo~t it is not possible to run trans-

ducer wires at six points at each circumference for growth measurements

and,

11 numerous additional strain gages will be used on the liner plate

and rebar to supplement the measurements".

As noted in IE Inspection

Report No. 50-311/78-51, we observed that these strain gage commitments

were met during the test, and data/evaluations will b~ included in the

final test r~port. *

In a telephone conversation between Mr. R. Evans of your staff and Mr.

Toth of this office we were advised that a review of all Salem 2 struc-

tural specifications was completed on January 18, 1979 to identify any

process/test related requirements which may have been inadvertently

omitted from other procedures.

We understand that no such cases were

identified.

Should you have any questions or clarifications regarding the above

understandings, please contact this office.

Your corrective and pre-

ventive actions documented in your letter and described above will be

examined during a subsequent inspection of your licensed program .
