In order for us to complete our review of the Three Mile Island Unit 1 (TMI-1) emergency core cooling system (ECCS) perfonnance reefalua-tion submitted August 8,1975, it will be necessary for you to provide additional information regarding the containment input parameters. The specific data and justification desired are identified in the enclosure i

to this letter. Your reply is requested within 30 days of receipt of this letter.

Sincerely.
