SUBJECT:
PROJECTED VALUES OF MATERIAL PROPERTIES FOR FRACTURE TOUGHNESS REQUIREMENTS FOR PROTECTION AGAINST PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK EVENTS We have reviewed your letter dated January 20, 1986 which was submitted in response to the Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) Rule, 10 CFR 50.61, for Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1.
We have found the material properties of reactor vessel beltline materials, the projected fluence at the inner surface of the reactor vessel and the calculated RT T for the end of the current operating license and the 32 EFPY, the plant 8esign lifetime, to be acceptable.
The calculated RTPJS is below the screening criteria of 270°F at 32 EFPY and, therefore, meets tne requirements of the PTS Rule.
The PTS Rule requires that the projected assessment of the RT TS must be updated whenever changes in core loadings, surveillance measu~ements or other information (including changes in capacity factor) indicate a significant change in the projected values.
This ensures that the licensees will track the accumulated fluence for the limiting beltline materials throughout the life of the plant to verify that their assumptions remain valid.
In this regard we request that you submit a re-evaluated of the RT TS and comparison with of the predicted value in any future Pressure-Temperature submittals which are submitted as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G.
Our associated Safety Evaluation is enclosed.

As stated Sinc7}/
