(a) December 14, 1983 T.R. Tramm letter to H.R. Denton. 'I

Dear Dr. Murley:

Reference (a) provided a revised response to Open Item #4-to the July, 1983 NRC Fire Protection-Audit, performed at Byron Station for Unit 1.

3 Reference (a) provided in part, the fire loading for Fire Zones 2.1-1 and ,!

2.1-2 of 42,300 BTU /ftb and 43,900. BTU /ft2, respectively. As a result of a recent Commonwealth Edison review, the value of.43,900 BTU /ft2 for Zone 2.1-2 was identified as not having been incorporated into the Byron /Braidwood Fire Protection Report (FPR).

As a result, the purpose-of this letter is to provide an advanced '

notification of a change that will be'made to FPR pages 2.2-18 and 2.3-14 that  !

will be provided to the NRC staff in the annual FPR update in December, 1990,  !

consistent with Edison's previous committment. Marked-up copies of;pages j 2.2-18 and 2.3-14 are provided in Attachment A.

The fire loading has remained and is below the 43,900 BTU /ft2 value in Zone 2.1-2 at both the Byron and Braidwood Stations.

Please direct any questions-regarding this submittal to this office, .;
