Dear Mr. Liparulo:
\\
SUBJECT:
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (RAI) ON THE AP600 As a result of its review of the June 1992 application for design certifica-tion of the AP600, the staff has determined that it needs additional informa-1 I
tion in order to complete its review. The additional infomation is needed in i
the area of safeguards (Q920.1 - Q920.2),* Enclosed are the staff's ques-tions.
Please respond to this request within 90 days of the date of receipt of this letter.
j You have requested that portions of the information submitted in the June 1992 application for design certification be exempt from mandatory public disclo-sure. While the staff has not completed its review of your request in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 2.790, that portion of the submit-ted information is being withheld from public disclosure pending the staff's final determination. The staff concludes that this request for additional information does not contain those portions of the information for which exemption is sought. However, the staff will withhold this letter from public disclosure for 30 calendar days from the date of this letter to allow Westing-house the opportunity to verify the staff's conclusions.
If, after that time, you do not request that all or portions of the information in the enclosures be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with 10 CFR 2.790, this letter will be placed in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Public Document Room.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE WESTINGHOUSE AP600 DESIGN 920.1 Sectio.
2.2.1 of Chapter 9 of the EPRI Advanced Light Water Reactor (ALWR) utility Requirements Document (URD) for passive plant designs states that a vulnerability analysis should be performed prior to finalizing the design to analyze issues associated with insider and outsider sabotage.
In Section 5.2.2 of the EPRI final Safety Evalua-tion Report, dated August 31, 1993, the staff stated that a vulnerabil-ity analysis would be reviewed as part of an individual application.
Westinghouse has stated that it will comply with the EPRI ALWR URD.
Provide that analysis.
920.2 Section 13.6.5.2 of the AP600 SSAR states that a listing of vital equipment is provided in the AP600 Security Design Report.
The Security Design Report, dated June 30, 1992, did not contain a list of vital equipment.
Provide a listing of vital equipment for the AP600 design.
