1. On !!ovember 13, 1968, Applicant submitted C!nnge Reports 15 ard 16 describing the installation of a wter seal on the pressurizer safety valves and the $nstallation of a spilled coolant recirculation system.
2. On July 8,1969, Applicant submitted one amendment each to Chance Reports 15 and 16 pro;)osing pressure tests to demonstrate the integrity of the above inctallatiot.c. The proposed pressure tests involved pressuritation of the reactor coolant systen, and both amendments presented arguments to support the adequacy of the tests and conform-ance with the applicable Codes.
3. By letter dated C'etober 7,1969, Division of Reactor Licensing adviced Applicant of apparent inconsistencies bt. tween the supportinc argu .ents and the Technical Specifications, and rcquested clarifying infernation be provided.
4. Applicant hereby submits Amendmont flo. 2 to Change Reports 15 and 16 providing the clarifying information requested by Division of Reactor Licensing.
