On August 29, 1990, the Main Plant Vent High Range Process Monitor, RM-A13, was declared inoperable due to " spiking" of the monitor.

A preplanned alternate method of monitoring has been initiated as required by the Technical Specifications.

Should you required any additional information, please call at your convenience.

Very truly yours,
