b ARKANSAS POWER & LIDHT COMPANY POST OFFICE BOX 551 UTTLE ROCK. ARKANSAS 72203 (501)371-4000 August 31, 1979 1-089-20 2-089-20 Mr. K. V. Seyfrit, Director Office of Inspection & Enforcement U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region IV 611 Ryan Plaza Drive, Suite 1000 Arlington, Texas 76011

Subject:

Arkansas Nuclear One - Units 1 & 2 Docket Nos. 50-313 & 50-368 License Nos. DPR-51 & NPF-6 IE Bulletin 79-03 (Files:

1510, 2-1510)

Gentlemen:

Our submittal of June 22, 1979 on the above subject stated that results of tests performed on Youngstown piping would be submitted by September 1, 1979.

These tests were to show that a centerline lack of penetration (CLP) defect is unlikely and that should a minor CLP exist, the pipe would still be expected to withstand the full working pressure allowed by the ASME Code.

This letter is provided toward that end by infonning you that the findings of these tests were presented to the NRC 0.ffice of Inspection and Enforcement at Bethesda, Maryland, on August 15, 1979, by representatives of Bechtel Power Corporation. It is the understanding of Arkansas Power and Light Company that no immediate decisions were reached.

However, Mr. R. W. Rutherford (NRC-I&E) stated that Bulletin 79-03 will be modified to reflect information collected since its issue.

There-fore, we rec,aest a delay of our final submittal on the subject bulletin until we have had an opportunity to review the forthcoming revision.

Very truly yours, b

(.

David C. Trimble Manager, Licensing DCT: ERG:vb 1091 231
