SUPPLEMENTAL TESTIMONY ON CONTENTION 2.2(a)

My name is Dennis C. Bley.

I am a consultant in relia-bility, risk, and decision analysis for electrical generat-ing plants at Pickard, Lowe and Garrick, Inc.

I was a prin-cipal investigator on the Indian Point Probabilistic Safety Study.

A statement of my professional qualifications is attached.

The purpose of this Supplemental Testimony is to cor-rect a misstatement in my testimony as filed on January 12, 1983, and in the Indian Point Probabilistic Safety Study (IPPSS), upon which my testimony was based.

The correction pertains to the statement that the flooding event at Unit 2 on October 17, 1980, led to numerous hardware and administrative changes for both units including for both units:

o Revised technical specifications regarding limiting conditions for operation of the various leakage detection systems and operating leakage limits.

Licensees' Testimony of Dennis C.

Bley on Contention 2.2(a) at 2 (Jan. 12, 1983); IPPSS { 7.4.2.2.5.

This statement is in error regarding Unit 3 because Unit 3's Technical Specifications in existence prior to the flooding event at Unit 2 already addressed the subject of fan cooler leakage.

See Amendment No. 31; Technical Specifications for Indian Point Unit No. 3 at 4.4-10.

The testimony of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Staff on this subject is accurate:

" Technical specifications at Unit 3 already existed that required testing of the air cooler system that limited the leak rate to 0.36 gallons per minute, this leakage limit includes all valves, coils and pipes, not just the isolation valves."

NRC Staff Testimony of William T.

LeFave, Frank Rowsome and Bernard Turovlin on Contention 2.2.a at 14 (Jan. 12, 1983) (emphasis added).
