August 10, 1979 Docket No. 50-213 Mr. W. G. Counsil, Vice President Nuclear Engineering and Operations Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company
' Post Office Box 270 Hartford, Connecticut 06101
Dear Mr. Counsil:
.In May 1976, we issued guidelines reflecting the NRC's policy regarding the implementation of General Design Criterion 3 - Fire Protection.
Since that time, you have performed a fire hazards analysis for your facility and have compared its fire protection program with the NRC guidelines.
In late 1976, we set October 1980 as the date for completing the imple-mentation of all modifications associated with this program. This implementation schedule recognized that such modifications should be completed as soon as practical, with due consideration of the nature of the modifications. For example, minor modifications, adoption of administrative controls and additional portable equip-ment would be completed within six months; however, majc.aodifications would require a year or more to complete and some modif'.ations would be coordinated with refueling outages.
By their Memorandum and Order in the matter of the Union of Concerned Scientists' Petition for Emergency and Remedial Action, dated April 13, 1978, the Commission directed the staff to use their best efforts to maintain this schedule, and also directed that the Commission be advised if any siippage is ant'.cipated, aleng with suggested corrective actions.
We urge you to apply your best efforts to maintain your schedules for caapletion of all of the fire protection modifications at your facility (ies) and to submit, on an expedited basis, any infonnation that is still outstanding with regard to open items and required design details.

Sincerely, b
