Dear Mr. Bauer:

Subject:

Concerns Regarding the Adequacy of the Design Margins of the Mark I and II Containment Systems A number of concerns regarding the adequacy of the General Electric Mark III containment design have been raised by Mr. John Hunphrey, a former employee of GE. When these concerns came to the attention of the NRC staff on the Grand Gulf docket, we initiated a series of telephone conference calls and meetings.

While these concerns were first directed by Mr. Humphrey towards Grand Gulf, in subsequent discussions he extended his concerns towards other facilities.

Af ter considering Mr. Humphrey's concerns, we concluded that this information is potentially generic and may have applicability to all dockets with boiling water reactors which use the GE pressure suppression containment systems (i.e., the GE Mark I, II and III containment systems).

The enclosure to this letter contains 22 categories into which Sir. Humphrey's concerns were coalesced on the Grand Gulf docket as of June 21, 1982, less those items which are clearly associated with a Mad III contaiment. In some instances, we have modified an original concern to make it more applicable to the Mark I and II contaiments and have added some footnotes which generalize Mr. Humphrey's concerns. We request that you respond within 14 days of receipt of this letter with your proposed schedule for submitting a program to address those concerns which we have identified as being potentially applicable to your facility. If you have any questions on this matter, please contact the assigned project nanager. Mr. Byron Siegel (301-492-7534) is the contact for operating Mark I facilities and Mr. M.D. Lynch (301-492-9793) is the contact for all other facilities.

This infomation is being requested under Section 50.34(b)(2)(i) of 10 CFR Part 50 and was approved by WB under a blanket clearance 3150-0011 which expires April 30, 1985.

Sincerely, 7
