Dear Congress 1an Nelligan:
/9%"
I am pleasec to respond to your April 3,1982, inquiry about the February 9, 1982 letter from one of your constitue.ts, Gerald R. Schultz, Esq., regarding the Susquehar.na Steam Electric Station.
That letter expressed concerns about the reactor vessel head or cap and a la rge concrete pipe to the cooling towers.
Upon receipt of Mr. Schultz's letter on February 10, 1982, our Region I office telephoned Mr.
Schul tz to discuss his concerns, explain the NRC checks
- involved, c'. a ri fy sa fety aspects, an: inquire as to the availability of further i n fc rma tion. The NRC staff responded in writing to Mr. Schul tz 's concerns on February 11, 1982.
A copy of that response is enclosed for your infomation.
After our discussion with Mr. Schultz, :he NRC Resident Inspectors at the Sus-quehanna plant rechecked installation :f the reactor vessel heads, including observation of the Unit One head being put in place on the vessel on February 11, 1982.
la safety problems were iden:ified.
We have found no damage to the heads, closure studs, or associated e:uipment.
The large concrete pipe Mr.
Schultz described does not appear to :e safety-related.
Simple patching of holes in su:n pipe should be a sufficient repair, but we are being alert for potential pr:blems with any cooling sys:em piping.
fir. Schultz's concerns are being addressed by our inspection efforts, and we will consider any additional input he provides in our assessments of facility sa fe ty.
The NRC Regional Staff also contacted Mr. Schultz by telephone on February 23, 1982 and asked if more information is available.
None has been provided to : ate.
I trust this reply is responsive to ycur inquiry.
please let me know if we can provide lay further assistance.
Sincerely,
,f
