DOCKET NO. 50 445 STORAGE AND HANDLING OF FUEL ASSEMBLIES REF: NRC letter " Draft Operating License" from C. 1. Grimes to W. J. Cahill, Jr. dated September 16, 1989.

Gentlemen:

The referenced letter identifies a license issue regarding the storage and handling of fuel assemblies in the Fuel Building. TU Electric hereby confirms its position in regard to fuel handling operations in the Fuel Building. That-is; 1) within the fuel handling building, no more than two fuel assemblies shall be outside of an approved shipping container, fuel inspection station, storage rack or fuel transfer tube at any one time, and 2) a minimum 12-inch edge to edge distance shall be maintained between such assemblies. A minimum

'12-inch edge to edge distance between fuel assemblies is sufficient to assure Keff remains below 0.95 for dry (unmoderated) as well as flooded (unborated water) conditions. These criteria have been incorporated into the operations fuel handling procedures.

If additional information is required, please notify TU Electric by contacting the Licensing Department at (214) 812 6866.

Sincerely, William J. Cahill, Jr.
