AFFIDAVIT OF RICHARD C.
ANDERSON COALITION FOR SAFE POWER' S CONTENTION NO. 17 1.
My name is Richard C.
Anderson.
I am employed by Bechtel Power Corporation (Bechtel) as Engineering Manager in the San Francisco Power Division.
I have been employed in this position since 1977.
My professional qualifications are contained in an attachment to this affidavit.
2.
I have been involved in the Trojan Plant modification design work since April 1978.
I have had supervisory responsi-bility for the development of the proposed modification to the complex, including its analysis, design, and general details of construction work necessary to carry out the modification.
In my position I am familiar with the way in which the modifi-cation work will be carried out at the Trojan Plant so as to minimize any potential for the work to interfere with the ability of Plant operators to respond to an emergency.
3.
The purpose of this affidavit is to address, in part, Coalition for Safe Power's Contention No. 17, which reads as follows:
Performance of modification work will hamper the ability of plant operators to respond to any emergency properly and thus poses an undue risk to the public health and safety.

C. Anderson 4.
This affidavit will describe the areas in which the modification work will be performed and the measures to be taken to minimize any potential interference with the ability of Plant operators to respond to an emergency.
The affidavit of Mr. C. P. Yundt on this contention will show that performance of the modification work will not adversely affect the ability of the Plant operators to respond to an emergency.
5.
Activities related to the modification program will be performed in the following general areas of the Plant:
I.
Control Building a.
At el. 45' from R line to N line between column lines 41 and 47 b.
At el. 61'/65' from R line to N line between column lines 41 and 47 c.
At el. 77' from R line to N line between column lines 41 and 47 d.
At el. 93' and above from R line to N line between column lines 41 and 47
CFSP #17 Page 3 of 6 R.

Anderson II.
Turbine Building a.
At el. 45' from R line to Z line between column lines 41 and 47 (but not within the west and east Emergency Diesel Generator Rooms) b.
At el. 69' from R line to Z line between column lines 41 and 47 (but not within the ESF Switchgear Room) c.
At el. 93' from R line to Z line between column lines 41 and 47 III.
North of the Auxiliary Building - at el. 45' adjacent to N line between column lines 41 and 46 Each portion of the work will take place primarily in a small area immediately adjacent to the wall to be modified or added within the above-listed general areas.
6.
In the Turbine Building at el. 45',
six of the steel plates to be attached to the R-line wall will be moved to the base of that wall at the end of the corridor to the railroad bay.
During such movement of each plate, access through that corridor to the railroad bay could be limited for approximately fifteen minutes.
At no time, however, would personnel access be blocked.
CFSP #17 Page 4 of 6 R.
C. Anderson 7.
The following items must be temporarily removed from the Turbine Building at el. 93' to provide room for rigging of the plates on the R line wall:
(a) the steel stairway to the Visitors' Gallery above the Control Room; and (b) the ladder with safety cage and a steel platform leading to the crane cab.
Temporary ladders will provide alternative access to the Visitors' Gallery and crane cab.
Installation of bolts and plate washers will require access beneath the Control Building stairs to the Visitors' Gallery.
Such access will be devised such that access to the Visitors' Gallery will not be obstructed.
8.
With respect to all other tasks, including removal of concrete, adding of walls, installatior of plates, storage of materials, etc., the only other potential interferences with access paths would consist of workers in aisles who could easily move aside and move any equipment and materials they may have with them.
9.
Work in the Control Room will be limited to that as-sociated with installation of bolts and plate washers on the N and R line walls.
The work will only involve a few workers in the Control Room at any one time.
They will be located well away from the Control Room control panels and, like all other construction workers, will be instructed to follow all orders of Plant operating personnel.
Similar activities will be performed in the Electrical Auxiliaries Room at el. 61'/65' in the Control Building under the same conditions.
CFSP #17 Page 5 of 6 R.
C. Anderson 10.
Modification work away from Plant buildings is limited to the relocation of the railroad spur.
Delivery vehicles, temporary office and tool trailers, stored materials and other construction facilities will be placed such that access into Plant buildings will not be obstructed.
11.
Tools to accomplish the modification work will be se-lected with the minimum noise level consistent with performing the work.
As described in paragraph 11 of Mr. Yundt's affidavit on this contention, if excessive noise is being created, the work will be halted and then lighter weight tools or other means will be imployed.
12.
I know of no other potential impacts of the modification work on the ability of operators to respond to an emergency.

Richard C. Anderson, of lawful age, being first duly sworn, state that I have reviewed the foregoing affidavit, and that the statements contained therein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
