Gentlemen:
JOSEPH M. FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT - UNITS 1 AND 2 THERMAL SH0CK TO REACTOR PRESSURE VESSEL, GENERIC LETTER 81-19 The Westinghouse Owners Group, of which Alabama Pomar Company is a member, has con:nitted to a program to address potential reactor vessel integrity concerns as identified in NRC Generic Letter 81-19. That l
commitment, and the description of the program, are contained in letter l
OG-58 dated May 14, 1981, from Robert W. Jurgensen, Chairman, Westinghouse Owners Group to D. G. Eisenhut, Director, Division of Licensing, USNRC.
Additionally, as described in the May 14 letter, all Westinghouse plants including Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant-Unit 1 have been shown to safely sustain severe thermal shock transients, including repressuri-zation, to beyond January, 1983, at a minimum.
Inasmuch as Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant-Unit 2 has not begun comercial operation, the reactor vessel has not experienced any signi-ficant irradiation damage. Thus, as discussed in the May 14 letter, "no near term vessel integrity corcern can exist for this vessel" (e.g.
Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant-Unit 2).
Specifically, the Westinghouse Owners Group program to be completed in December,1981, will identify, for Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant-Units 1 and 2, if future additional plant specific analyses and/or remedial actions may be required, and will provide tL ' Se in plant life when these additional actions may be needed.
