Mr. Darrell G. Eisenhut February 13, 1981 The CRBRP Project has done extensive work i in the area of Hypothetical Core Disruptive Accidents (HCDA) and has documented this effort in a single comprehensive reporf., CRBRP-3, Volumes 1 and 2, which was pro-vided to the NRC in Refere;ces (1) and (2). Additional documents that serve as significant references for this work were also provided to the NRC by References (3) and (4). It is now appropriate to withdraw Appen-dix F, " Core Disruptive Accident Accomodation," from the PSAR, since all of the relevant material relating to HCDA's is provided in CRBRP-3 and its associated references.

Accordingly, this Amendment No. 60 withdraws Appendix F from the PSAR and includes: responses to NRC's requests for additional information contained in a letter dated March 30, 1977, and revised responses to previously answered NRC questions concerning structural margins asso-ciated with an HCDA.

The CRBRP Project is confident that the above documentation is respon-sive to NRC Requests for Additional Information regarding HCDA energetics, associated structural margins, and degraded core considerations, and that this information will lead to resolution of outstanding questions regarding these subjects.

A Certificate of Service, confirming service of Amendment No. 60 to the PSAR upon designated local public officials and representatives of the EPA, will be filed with your office after service has been made. Three signed originals of this letter and 97 cc, pies of this amendment, each with a copy of the submittal letter, are he eby submitted.

Sincerely, A MA
