MAY 2 A 1993 Docket No. 50-322 Mr. Leslie Hill, Resident Manager Long Island Power Authority Shoreham Nuclear Power Station P.O. Box 628 North Country Road Wading River, New York 11792

Dear Mr. Hill:

SUBJECT:

APPROVAL OF DECOMMISSIONING PLAN CHANGE The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has reviewed the Long Island Power Authority's (LIPA) letter, LSNRC-2053, dated April 6, 1993, and the supplemental telephone memorandum dated April 19, 1993.

LIPA requested approval to use the Salt Water Drain Tank, G-11-TK-190, to drain the Spent Fuel Storage Pool (SFSP) water following removal of the Shoreham fuel. This request for a change to the Shoreham Decommissioning Plan (DP) was submitted in accordance with Conditions 3 and 4 of the Shoreham Decommissioning Order.

The staff is approving the use of the Salt Water Drain Tank, G-ll-TK-190, as an alternative method to drain the SFSP water. The use of the Salt Water Drain Tank alternative was approved because:

1) LIPA has_ demonstrated that the Appendix I requirements will be met by circulating the SFSP water through the temporary demineralizer system, sampling the SFSP water, and verifying the SFSP water is'within Appendix I limits before discharging the water to the Salt Water Drain Tank; 2) LIPA has committed to provide a plant operator to monitor the tank, and terminate the discharge of the water in the event that

radiation levels exceed the setpoint.

The Salt Water Drain Tank discharge is monitored by radiation monitor, IDll-PNL-079. The operator is required because the radiation monitor does not feature an automatic interlock to terminate the discharge in the event that radiation levels exceed the setpoint; and 3) LIPA has committed to develop a system for pumping the contents of the Salt Water Drain Tank back to the SFSP, prior to discharging I
