REACTOR (SBWR) TESTING ACTIVITIES AT GE NUCLEAR ENERGY (GE)

tion at the.GE Nuclear Energy (GE) offices in San ' Jose, California on. August.9 1 1

through 13, 1993. The inspection team will consist of Messrs. Richard -

details of the inspection with Mr. George Sweden, et.al., of yourf staff on- 1 July 22 and 26,1993. I q

The inspection will review the quality assurance' programs and controls . j implemented during the tests conducted at the gravity-driven cooling system - 1 integral systems test facility (GDCS-IST) during the late 1980's and the development of the GDCS computer modeling.
