Dear Ms. hiatt:
This letter acknowledges receipt of your Petitior-cf April 6, 1990, requesting that action be taken with regard to the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1.
Specifically, you requested that the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission order the Cleveland Electric 111uminating Company to shut down Perry Unit 1 and that they be issued a Hotice of Violation and Civil Per,alty for operating in violation of their Technical Specifications since hovember 1989.
Your Petitier has been referred to me pursuant to 10 CFR $ 2.206 of the Concission's regulations.
As provided by Section 2.206, we will take action on your reauest within a reasonable time.
However, a preliminary review cf the con-cerns in your Petition does not indicate any need to take imrrediate action as you request because bcth of the traveling screens 1or the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit No.1, are currently in service; theref ore, the emergency service water (ESW) systern is currently fully operable.
However, as stated by the licensee in its May 16, 1990, letter responding to your htition, the traveling screens for the Perry ESW system are parallel, redundant trairs and serve a comon suction tay from whict ell six ESW pumps from both Units 1 and 2 draw suction supply water.
Each indisidual traveling screen has the capacity to supply sufficient cooling water flow with all Unit 1 and Unit 2 ESW and fire protection pumps operating.
Additionally, in this condition a re'atively low approach velocity would exist, thus nir.imizing the potential for cebria accumuletion ard clogging. Even if debris were to accumulate and either the screen wash pumps or autoniatic screen rotetion were to f ail for both traveling screens, the traveling screens could be n.anually washed to prevent screen blockage and potential fitwpath irrpairn.ent. Therefore,1 do not believe that the irrrediate action requested in your Petition is wartanted.
I have enclosed for your information a copy of the notice that is being filed with the Office of the Federal Register for publication.
Sincerely, Opiginal eigned t'y i

Dear Ms. Hiatt:
This letter acknowledges receipt of your Petition of April 6,1990,/ requesting that action be taken with regard to the Perry Nuclear Power Plant / Unit 1.
$)ecifically, you requested that the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Coalmission order di t1e Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company to shut down Perryj nit I and that they be issued a Notice of Violation and Civil Penalty for o rating in violation of their Technical Specifications since Novembe 89.
Your Petition has been referred to me pursuant to 10 CFV6 2.206 of the Consnission's regulations. As provided by Section 2.2Q5', we will take action on your request within a reasonable time.
However, a pfeliminary review of the con-cerns in your Petition does not indicate any need to take immediate action as you request because both of the traveling screens for/the Perry Nuclear Power Plant
)
Unit No.1, are currently in service; therefore/the emergency service water (ESW system is currently fully operable. However, 4s letterrespondingtoyourPetition,statedbythelicenseeinits the traveling screens for the May 16, 1990, Perry ESW system are parallel redundant trains and serve a common suction bay from which all six ESW pumps from both Units 1 and 2 draw suction supaly water.
Each individual traveling screen has t)6 capacity to supply water witi all Unit 1 and Unit 2 ESW pumps and fire protection pumps operating and still to maintain a relatively low approach velocity, thus minimizing the potential for debris accumulation and clogging. Evengif debris were to accumulate and either the screen wash pumps or automatic /otation were to f ail for both traveling screens, the traveling screens could be' manually washed to prevent screen blockage and potential flowpath impairment. Therefore, I do not believe that the immediate action requested in your, Petition is warranted.

Howeve, as stated by the licensee in its May 16, 1990, letter responding to your P ition the traveling screens for the Perry ESW system are parallel redundant rains a,nd serve a common suction bay from which all six ESW pumps from both its 1 and 2 draw suction sup)1y water.
Each individual traveling screen has th capacity to supply water wit 1 all Unit I and Unit 2 ESW pumps and fire protect n pumps operating and still maintain a relatively low approach velocity thu inimizing the potential for debris accumulation and clogging.

Dear Ms. Hiatt:
This letter acknowledges receipt of your Petition of Aaril 6,1990, requesting that action be taken with regard to the Perry Nuclear 'ower Plant, Unit 1.
Specifically, you requested that the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission order
'3 the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company to shut down Perry Unit I and that they be issued a Notice of Violation and Civil Penalty for operating in violation of their Technical Specifications since November 1989.
Your Petition has been referred to me pursuant to 10 CFR I 2.206 of the Commission's regulations. As provided by Section 2.206, we will take action on your request within a reasonable time.
However, a preliminary review of the con-cerns in your Petition does not indicate any need to take imediate action as you-request because both of the traveling screens for the Perry Nuclear Power Pla Unit No.1, are currently in service; therefore, the emergency service water (ESW system is currently fully operable.
However,-as stated by the licensee in its May 16, 1990, letter responding to your Petition, the traveling screens'for the Perry ESK system are parallel redundent trains and serve a comon suction bay-from which all six ESW pumps from both Units 1 and 2 draw suction supply water.
Each individual traveling screen has the capacity to supply sufficient cooling water flow with all Unit 1 and Unit 2 ESW-and fire protection pumps operating. Additionally, in this condition a relatively low approach velocity would exist, thus minimizing the potential for debris accumulation and clogging. Even if debris were to accumulate and either the screen Wash 4
pur.;ps or automatic screen rotation were to fail for both traveling screens, the traveling screens could be manually washed to prevent screen blockage and potential flowpath impairment. Therefore, I do not belit.ve that the imediate action requested in your Petition is warranted.
