Teleconference between Conmonwealth Edison Company and the Nuclear Regulatory Ccnmission dated February 28, 1995, Regarding Braidwood Station Unit 1 Mid-Cycle Inspection Reference 3 transmitted the Nuclear Regulatory Comnission (NRC) 's Safety Evaluation Report (SER) for the Use of Interim Plugging Criteria (IPC) for Conmonwealth Edison Comaany (Comed) 's Braidwood Unit 1.

The SER states that," 'Ibe inspection data and repair results of the mid-cycle insaection, along with the licensee's safety assessment, willlae reviewed by the staff prior to restart from the mid-cycle outage."

The Reference teleconference was held to clarify this statement from the SER.

The following is Comed's understanding of that teleconference.

This..

This safety assessment:followed the Draft Generic Letter with the exceptions previously identified via Reference 2. The following identifies the differences between the upcoming-Braidwood safety assessment and the Byron safety assessment:

t Braidwood Station will not pull any steam generator.

tubes during the midcycle outage, this is consistent ~

with the Draft Generic Letter.

Regarding the calculation of. leak and burst, Braidwood j

intends to perform these calculations in accordance.

with WCAP 14277, "SLB Leak Rate and Tube Burst-Probability Analysis Methods'for ODSCC at TSP Intersection."

This information was previously transmitted to the Staff via Reference 4.-

Additionally, the Staff and Comed agreed that,

" Calculation of leakage and of conditional burst probability (mode 4) uses the as found end of midcycleto be performed to service voltage distribution (as opposed to a projected distribution)."

Regarding the data base that will be used for the calculation of leak and burst, Braidwood Station will-.

use the same data base as on used with the following exception: Byron Cycle 6 t pull results will be included, and the model boiler specimen 598-1 will not' be included in this data base.

Also per the Reference teleconference, it is Comed's t

understanding that after the safety assessment is transmitted to the Staff, Braidwood Unit 1 will proceed with unit startup, unless otherwise notified by the NRC.
