RE:
TURKEY POIHT HUCLEAR GENERATING UNITS HOS.
3 AtlD 4 Enclosed for your fnfomat$ on is. a copy of a 1etter dated January 3, 1977 from Robert D. Pollard, which is being considered as' Request for Action pursuant to 10 CFR 2.206, regarding your License Nos.

The letter fran Hr. Pollard, artong other things, states that a refueling accident inside the containnIent buildfng raay not have been adequately considered during the licensing review of your facility.
As you are a>~are, Me recently contacted nenbers of your staff to obtain fnfomatfon for an independent assessment of such a postulated accident at your facility.
Based on our prelinfnary review, potential site boundary radiation exposures due to such an accident at your facility would be relatively low and wel 1 >>fthfn 10 CFR Part 100 guidelines even assuming no contafnnent fso'lation or effluent filtration.
On the basis of this prelfnfnary review we expect,- that vodfffcations to your facility will not be required.
In order to conffrn these results and to document the factors involved in the eValuation,
>~e request that you provide a detailed evaluation of the potential consequences of such an accident at your facility within 60 days of receipt of this letter.
Your analysis should utilize assunptfons co~parable to those given fn Regulatory Guide 1.25, MAssunptfons Used for Evaluating the Potential Radiolog'ical Consequences of a Fuel Hand1ing Accident in the Fuel Handling and Storage Facility for Boiling and Pressurized lfater Reactors" and
- consider, in a conservative nanner, any nfxing in the containE~ent.
