Submittal Supporting Accelerated ABWR Schedule - ATWS Stability EPGs (Issue #12)

Dear Chet:

Enclosed are SSAR markups of the Emergency Procedure Guidelines (EPGs) incorporating the ATWS stability strategy (Issue #12) as requested by the NRC during the June 10,1993 management meeting. This will be included in Amendment 32 scheduled to be transmitted to the NRC on August 31,1993.

Please provide a copy of this transmittal to George Thomas.

Sincerely,
