June 16,1993 Mr. Regis Matzie, Vice President Nuclear Systems Development ABB-Combustion Engineering F

100 Prospect Hill Road

. Windsor, CT 06095-0500

Dear Mr. Matzie:

I am responding to your letter of May 27, 1993, in which you provided preliminary comments on SECY-93-087, " Policy, Technical, and Licensing Issues Pertaining to Evolutionary and Advanced Light Water Reactor (ALWR) Designs."

In this letter, you also endorsed the views provided by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) on several of the staff positions contained in SECY-93-087.

Some of your comments pertain to issues in SECY-93-087 where the NRC staff has provided its final recommendations to the Commission for approval.

Your comments did not contain significant new information that would justify a.

change in the existing staff positions. The staff has been conducting its certification review of the System 80+ design based on these positions.

We will work with you to implement any additional guidance from the Commission on these issues on the most timely schedule possible. As noted in SECY-93-087, any Commission approval on these issues would be tentative, subject to further review in design certification rulemaking.

Your remaining comments deal with issues such as sourcs term and emergency planning where the staff is still developing its position.

I will ensure that your views are appropriately considered as the staff finalizes its recommendations on these issues.

I look forward to our continued interactions to resolve these and other remaining issues affecting the completion of the System 80+ design review.

Sincerely,

<inal signed by Dennis M. Crug g g t g ciate Director for Advanced Reactors and License Renewal Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation cc:
