Stolz Operating Reactors Branch 44 Division of Licensing U. S. Nuclear. Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555
Subject:
Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Emergency Operations Facility
Dear Mr. Stolz:
On June 1, 1991, Philadelphia Electric Company, in a letter S. L. Daltroff to D. G. Eisenhut, requested an exemption from the location criteria in NUREG-0696 for the Peach Bottom Emergency Operations Facility.
Additional information to support this request was provided to you on April 15, 1993, in a letter S. L. Daltroff to D. G. Eisenhut.
Subsequent conversations with NRC staff (G. Gears, E. Williams, F. Pagano) indicated that Philadelphia Electric should consider the establishment of a backup EOF in the event the existing primary EOF at Unit 1 Administration building became uninhabitable.
Philadelphia Electric proposes to establish a backup EOF at the Conowingo Hydro Electric Station (Conowingo Dam).
The Dam is located 8.5 miles downstream (SE) of PBAPS on the Conowingo Pond (Susquehanna River).
This location would be provided with i
communications equipment, dose assessnent capability, and a location for decision making personnel.
Information relating to the benefits of this location are provided in Attachment 1. describes the facilities and equipment avellable to support the backup EOF.
