Dear Mr. Parker:

Subj ect: Plans for Use of Westinghouse !!odel D Steaq Generators %g W

t.

Within the last few nonths, there has been considerable interest pai 'tg s T

operating nuclear poter plants with pre-heater stean generators (ibdel F-nanufactured by Westinghouse Electric Corporatioq. This interest was initiated by tube failures and degradation in steam generators of this model at non-domestic nuclear power plants. He understand that you propose to use Westinghouse !bdel D pre-heater type steam generators at your facility.

Because of the safety concerns relative to steam generator tube damage, we i

consider the potential for'such damage to be of safety significance.

Therefore, we request that you provide us with your plans to. address this probica at your facility within 30 days of receipt of this letter. We are especially interested to know whether or not you are relying on the results of the Westinghouse test program or testing at operating plants, what instrumentation you may propose for detection of flow-induced vibrations, and what testing and start-up procedures you propose for yourown facility.

Your full cooperation in this matter is appreciated.

The reporting and/or record keening requirements contained in this letter.

affect fewer than ten respondents; therefore, O'1B clearance is not j

required under P.I.. %-511.

Si ncerely,
