Dear Ms. Sekuler:

This letter is to confirm the agreement in principle we reached in respect of t.ontantion 2(n) at the spent fuel hearinas in Zion in June.

Should the Board authorize the requested replacement of storage racks in the Zion spent fuel pool, Commonwealth Edison will follow the practices and controls for limiting occupational exposure described in the affidavit of John P.

Leider, attached to Applicant's Motion for Summary Disposition dated January 9, 1979.

The Nuclear Regulatory Corc=ission has indicated that it will review and enforce the ccamitments made by Ccamenwealth Edison during these proceedings.

Nevertheless, to provide additional assurance that occupational exposures will be maintained As Low As Reasonably Achievable ("ALARA") during the proposed reracking, Commonwealth Edison will:

(1) invite the State's designated representative, who shall be an employee of an appropriate State agency such as the Illinois Cepartment of Public Health, to observe the rack replacement operation; and (2) provide your office with a report summarizing the occupational exposures experienced during the job.

Because the commitments and reviews outlined above should ensure that occupational doses will be ALARA, the State will not urge the Licensing Board to impose additional technical specifications dealing with this subject.

pv. ' ' ' t 9, 908.15 cc56

t n.

Ms. Susan Sekuler July 3, 1979 By enter g this agreement the State does not withdraw or waive any other contention or objection which it has raised or will raise in respect of the proposed rack replacement.

The agreement only relates to the occupational exposure issue if the Board grants Commonwealth Edison Company's appli-cation to replace the racks in the Zion spent fuel p001.

I am authorized to state that the NRC Staff has aa objec-tion to this arrangement.

If thic letter accurately reflects our agreement, please sign the original and return it to me.

I will submit it to the Board as an attachment to Applicant's proposed findings of fact.

Sincerely yours2
