Dear Sir:

This letter transmits one (1) copy each of the Reference 1 Reports which satisfy the requirements of Item 4 in IE Bulletin 79-26, Revision 1.

Reference 1 provides the results of additional post-irradiation examina-tions, and comparisons of the post-irradiation examination results to a new boron depletion analytical model developed by General Electric. The boron depletion model described in Reference 1 is shown to be in good agreement with the post-irradiation examination data.

General Electric demonstrates in Reference 1 that the control blade destructive examination data presented in References 1 and 2 are applicable to and representative of, the control blades in Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station.

The reports confinn that the loss of boron based on 50% local boron de-pletion is predictable, and is not affected by the plant (s) operating para-meters.
