Enclosure Supplemental Question for Three Mile Island 2 232.1 A recent submittal by 35W (Amendment 2 to the PSAR of 3SAR-205, Docket No. 50-561) indicates that the scram reactivity function amployed in the safety analyses for TMI-2 cay have been non-conservative.

In particular the ceasured curve of reactivity inserted as a function of fractional control rod insertion cay have been non-conservative with respect to the curve used in safety analysis.

Provide information to show that reactivity inserted as a function of ti=e as assumed in the safety analysis is consistent with the recent measurements or provide reanalyses of transients and accidents which are affected by scram reactivity insertion time.
