i 1.1 The structures of the f acility are very similar to those of recently licenced operating facilitics of the PUR type, such as Palisades, for which the Bechtel Corporation was the architect-engineer and constructor.

The structures interior i

The designer has employed analysis techniques that account for thich valled areas (such as the ring girder region), the influence of the Special foundation and the creep and crackins, properties of concrete.

attention has been given to liner, buttress, and large openinr, design.

The stresses and deformations have been kept to very conservative values as indicated in the tabular stress su== aries.

1. fa STRUCREAL ACCEpTN CE TESTING AND SURVEILLANCE t

The applicant has outlined his structural and leakage acceptance test i

program. The structural surveillance program for the containtr.nts has also been established. Nine tendons of one contain cat have been

+

aciccted.for surveillance. The tendon nonitoring program consists csacntially of nonitoring of tendon forca by lif t-off readings and l

sampling of selected tendons; first, at five years af ter plant startup i

cud, thereaf ter, at an interval to be determined when the results i

of the initial surveillance test.sre knavn.

Ecchtel Corporation is in the process of completing a statistical study to substantiate the appropriate frequency, numbers, types and positions of tendons for a i

containnent of their type.

It is our intent to. require that the results of this study be considered for application to Oconce and, also, that visual inspection of the containment interior including the liner and punctrations additionally be performed as a part of the structural soundness curveillance. The program as proponed and nodified above is considered acceptabic. Mcnitoring for scisnic tround cotion in also being provided.

i l.7 _CO:ICLUSIONS Based on our review of the Oconce structural design, construction and plans for testing and surveillance, the structural features of the facility are considered to provide ar. adequate narcin of safety.
