Attention:
Mr. S. A. Varga Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant - Unit 2 License Conditions 2.C.(9)(b) and 2.C.(12)(c)
Boron Mixing and Natural Circulation Cooldown Gentlemen:
By letter of July 8,1982, Alabama Power Company submitted information to the NRC demonstrating compliance with the referenced license condi-tions. As stated in the letter, an approved Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP-7) includes provisions for natural circulation cooldown with boron mixing.
Subsequent to this letter, the NRC Staff requested confirmation that the current Farley Nuclear Plant procedure has been reevaluated against the
" lessons learned" from the plants which had previously performed the natural circulation cooldown test (North Anna, Salem and Sequoyah). The procedures developed for plants performing the test at subcritical condi-tions, similar to that developed for Farley Nuclear Plant (i.e., Salem and North Anna), were based on the same Westinghouse Owner's Group guidelines and the Sequoyah test procedure.
It has been verified by Alabama Power Company that, as a result of the " lessons learned" by Salem and North Anna, there are no recommendations to revise the Westinghouse Owner's Group guidelines nor were changes made to the Salem and North Anna emergency operating procedures.
Therefore, Alabama Power Company has confidence that its current emergency procedure provides adequate guidance for cooldown under natural circulation conditions.
