February 1,1990 Docket Nos. 50-317 and-50-318 Mr. G. C. Creel Baltimore Gas & Electric Company Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant MD Rts 2 &.4.

Post Office Box 1535 Lusby, Maryland 20657

SUBJECT:

REVIEW OF 60-DAY RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 88-20, INDIVIDUAL-PLANT EXAMINATIONS (IPE) (TAC NO. 74392 FOR UNIT NO. 1 AND TAC NO. 74393 FOR UNIT NO. 2)

Re:

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos. I and 2 Generic Letter 88-20 requires, in part, that each operating reactor. licensee and construction permit holder: (1) icentify the approach and method selected for performing the IPE, (2) describe the method to be.used, and (3) identify the schedule for performing the IPE and submitting the results to the NRC.

This. information was to be submitted to the NRC within 60 days of issuance of Supplement-1 of the generic letter.

We have reviewed your letter dated October 31, 1989, submitted in response to the reporting requirements of the generic, letter. We conclude that your IPE approach, raethodology and schedule are acceptable. However, as we stated in Generic letter 88-20, we expect that utilities with extensive PRA experience,.

such as yours, will submit'their IPE results on a shorter schedule than 3 years-. We therefore encourage you to submit your IPE results on a more expeditious schedule to help avoid any possible delays between your completion of the IPE and our review process due to the expected backlog at the end of the 3-year period. We anticipate that any possible additional analysis or reporting requirements, such as those from external events or from the Containment Performance Improvement Program, will not have any adverse effect on your schedule. However, if your schedule should change, please notify the NRC of the proposed change and the reason for the change.
