3, 8.27 SCPH on No. 4 and 0.619 SCFH on No.

6.

The Acceptance Criteria is 0.375 SCFH.*

The tests were performed on January 15, 1979.

Prompt notification of test results to Mr. Ken Ridgway of the U.

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region III was accomplished at 0949 on January 16, 1979 by John D.
