Description:
.During the afternoon of July 15, 1981, the Wisconsin Electric Power Company Nuclear Engineering Safety Review Committee met to consider information received on July 14, 1981 from the Bechtel Power Corporation regarding the investi-gation of masonry block walls at the Point Beach Nuclear Plant.
Bechtel has been retained by Wisconsin Electric to conduct masonry wall investigations and analyses in accordance with the require-ments of IE Bulletin 80-11.
On July 14, 1981 Bechtel reported
- by -telephone that their analyses of several of the walls in the Point Beach Nuclear Plant control room and battery rooms indicated that in the event of an SSE, stresses in these walls exceeded the revised acceptance criteria stress limits as established during the meeting between Licensee and the NRC Staff on June 9-11, 1981.
Modification or reinforcement of the walls will be required to correct these conditions.
The Nuclear Engineering Safety Review Committee has reviewed and evaluated tais information and deter-mined that discovery of this condition is reportable under the g/
provisions of Technical Specification 15.6.9.2.A.9.
}
The Nuclear Engineering Safety hview Committee evaluation of this information included the determination that continued operation
/
of the Plant pending modifications to these walls is justified.
Details of the operability determination and the proposed modifi-cations for these walls will be included in the 14-day report.
