Subject:
REPORT ON THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION UNIT 1
Dear Dr. Scaborg:
[l-At its.ninety-sixth meeting, on April 4-6,'1968, the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safcguards gompleted its re-examination of the application by Metropolitan Edison Company to construct the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station Unit 1.
The Three Mile Island Nuclear Station Unit I was the subject of a report to you' dated January 17, 1968. The review was re-opened at the
/
ninety-fifth ACRS meeting, on March 7-9, 1968, in consideration of an additional submittal by the applicant evaluating further
.the effects of the proximity of the Olmsted State Airport.
Thg Committee has had the benefit of discussions with repre-sentatives of Metropolitan Edison Company, Babcock and Wilcox Company, Gilbert Associates, and the AEC Regulatory Staff and their consultants. The additional documents submitted are listed.in this report.
Although the probability of an airplane hitting the station is very small, the applicant has undertaken to provide principal structures and components of the station with the capability of withstanding aircraft strike loadings over a range of condi-tions, including effects such as secondary missiles, fire, and pressure and temperature effects. The reactor building, control building, fuel handling building, auxiliary building, and interme-diate building will have the necessary modifications to assure the capability of bringing the plant to a safe shutdown condition. 1556 013 7911060 6 [7
