Subject:

Dresden Station, Unit 1 Testing Program for the Temporary Diesel Generator NRC Docket No. 50-10

Dear Mr. O'Connor:

The enclosed information and planned testing program are provided in response to your verbal request.

As previously des-cribed, this new temporary standby diesel generator was procured as a commercial quality unit to be obtained quickly and utilized during the requested ECCS, IEEE-279 exemption extension period during which the permanent safety related quality diesel generators will be installed.

The manufacturer previously stated, "the engine and other components have previously been accepted for nuclear standby service applic.ation".

The manufacturer has recently further explained his statement as follows:

"PSD has used an engine of the same configuration, size

~

and manufacture (EMD 20-645E4) as supplied on the following licensed nuclear plants:

Rancho Seco - Sacramento Municipal Utility District James A. Fitzpatrick - Power Authority of the State of New York Davis Besse - Toledo Edison Browns Ferry - Tennessee Valley Authority" In view of the above, the attached testing program has been developed to satisfy the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.108 to demonstrate the operability of the temporary diesel generator system for the Dresden Unit 1 application.

Very truly yours, k
