FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant Docket No. 50-333 Containment Purging During Normal Plant Operation
Dear Sir:
By letter dated January 9, 1979 (JPN-79-3), the Authority advised you that we would provide the response to your request on the above subject by February 26, 1979.
It now appears that we can not meet this date and request an extension of 90 days.
We shall respond to your request by May 28, 1979.
Our investigations have revealed that the valves used for purging are not opened by utilizing the separate override relay, and will receive a close signal in the event of a LOCA.
Contain-ment purge is always routed through the charcoal beds of the standby gas treatment system.
We, therefore, request that we not be limited to 90 hcurs per year of purging since this will limit our ability to continue plant operations.
It is necessary for us to operate these valves to maintain our drywell to torus differential pressure requirement.
We plan to justify unlimited purging by the above referenced date.
Very truly yours,
\\
