Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station Docket No 50/395 Operating License No. NPF-12 NUREG-0612, " Control of Heavy Load s"

Dear Mr.~Denton:

-In response to a request for additional information from the NRC Staff concerning South Carolina Electric and Gas Company's (SCE&G) compliance with paragraph 5.1.1, Guideline 5 of NUREG-0612, " Control of Heavy Loads," the following information is provided.

Guideline 5 requires' lif ting devices which are not specially designed (slings) be installed and used in accordance with ANSI B30.9-1971. However, specific exceptions that are consistent with the Guidelines of NUREG-0612 were provided in an' enclosure to the Phase I Technical Evaluation Report (TER) for Control of Heavy Loads at the Virgil _ C.- Summer Nuclear Station under " Synopsis of Issues Associated with NUREG-0612."

On the basis of the approved exceptions to the Guidelines provided in the Phase I TER, SCE&G evaluated the potential routina dynamic loading for lifting devices Lnot specially designed and found them to be a small f raction (not greater that 15%) of maxianza allowable static loads.- The estimate was based on the impact loading calculations as specified in CMAA Specification No. 70.

The results of these calculations are detailed in paragraph 4.2.2 -and Table 4-1 of GAI Report 2364, transmitted to the NRC in a letter from O. W. Dixon,

~Jr., to'H. R. Denton dated January 25, 1985.

Should you have any further questions, please contact us at your convenience.

Very truly yours, O. W. Dixon, r
