AFFIDAVIT OF WILLIAM R. SPEZIALETTI REGARDING CONTENTION 2 (VERIFICATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF COMPUTER CODES)

William R. Spezialetti, being first duly sworn, deposes and states:

I am employed by Westinghouse Electric Corporation (Westinghouse) in the position of Manager, Domestic Licensing Technology. I have knowledge of the Westinghouse technical reports relied on in performing the safety analyses of the Nuclear Steam Supply Systen of Comanche Peak and of their verification by Westinghouse and acceptance by the NRC Regulatory Staff.

A statement of my education and professional qualifications is attached to this affidavit, and is incorporated herein by reference.

I will list the various Westinghouse Topical Reports which have been identified by Citizens for Fair Utility Regulation (CFUR) as being the subject of Contention 2 in the above-captioned proceeding. I will also 8201290440 820126 PDR ADOCK 05000445 0 PDR

Number 2 is an earlier version of Number 3. Only Number 3 was used at Comanche Peak. Number 17 was previously used in safety analyses for Comanche Peak but is no longer relied on for performing such analyses and is no longer referenced in the Comanche Peak FSAR. Number 22 is merely an informational report submitted to the NRC for that purpose only.

Topical Report Numbers 3, 9,13,14,15 and 18 do not introduce new computer codes for NRC review and do not present justification for the validity of any particular code. These topical reports present infor-

mation, provide bases or describe analyses which have been accepted by the NRC Staff. The uses for which Topical Report Numbers 3, 9, 13, 14, 15 and 18 were employed in the Comanche Peak FSAR are described in FSAR Sections 5.2, 5.4,15.2,15.3, 4.2 and 4.2, respectively.

Further, Number 7 was employed to generate the mass / energy data present in FSAR Section 6.2.1.
