Dear Mr. Haynes:

In accordance with the Technical Specifications of Facility Operating License No. DPR-26, the following confirms notification on November 8, 1982 to Mr. Peter Koltay of your office, by Mr. Michael Blatt of Consolidated Edison of a Reportable Occurrence LER 82-045. This event is the type defined in Technical Specification, Section 6.9.1.7.1.c.

The Cycle 5/6 spent fuel inspection program includes a video examination of fuel assemblies scheduled to be returned to the core for Cycle 6. As a result of the review of videotapes of fuel assembly F-44, Con Edison was informed by Westinghouse at 3:25 p.m. on November 8 that an upper end plug from one fuel rod was observed to be lodged betwe(~ the upper end plugs of adjacent fuel rods within this assembly. The end spring for the affected fuel rod was visible, extending cut of the top of the rod, indicating that the fuel pellets remained contained inside the rod. No other significant anomalies were observed for this assembly.

The affected assembly will not be returned to the core for Cycle 6.

Consolidated Edison believes that this report also satisfies the requirements l of 10 CFR Part 21.

Very truly your /

/ ,
