..:..'.. M Our recent discussicos with Toledo personnel regarding their osed'to reduce 1

the stea= generatat level setpoint for natural circulatico, and 3&W's need to maintain a high level because of ICCS s=all break have led to an i= passe.

. f)i Both B&V and Toledo are in a " risk" position because the Toledo s=all break topicial was based on a 32' level position; any change to that position =ay require.re-analysis a.d re-licensing. Nevertheless, a stea= ge:erator level value has not been reported to NRC and the ICCS Unit believes that a 10' level se: point vill bs adequate.

L,,

Toledo's needs to lover the serpoint are genuine and I offer the following

~

suggestion which you should pursue with Toledo:

1.

Alter the ec=:rol logic of the STRCS so that it vill provide evo se:pci===.
