Docket Nos. 50-269, -270, -287

Dear Mr. Case:

Section 20.103 of 10 CFR 20, as amended on' November 29, 1976, requires that respiratory protection equipment be used as stipulated in Regulatory Guide 8.15 if credit is to be taken for the protection provided by the respiratory protective equipment. Regulatory Guide 8.15 requires specific Commission authorization to use respiratory protect 1on equip-ment not approved under the schedules in 30 CFR Part 11 or where there is no existing schedule for approval of such equipment.

It is therefore requested that Ccmmission approval be granted for the use of the Elwood Nuclear Safety Model ENS-1560 two-piece air supplied suit for respiratory protection. The suit consists of a slipover jacket with a permanently attached sealed hood, positive sealing detachable gloves and pants with permanently attached, completely sealed boots and drawstring at the waist. The suit is made of .006 gauge self-extinguishing polyvinal chloride with air distribution tubing.

The suit has been tested by Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory and test results show that the material and performance characteristics of this suit are capable of providing an acceptable degree of protection under anticipated conditions of use. Test results are attached. A protection factor of.1000 would be applied during use of the suit.

V y truly yours, e
