Attention:.Mr. S. A. Varga J. M. Farley Nuclear Plant - Units 1 and 2-

-NUREG-0737, Item II.F.2 Reactor Vessel Level System

- Gentlemen:

E

. On January 22,1985,' a' meeting was held between Alabama Power Company.

and the NRC to. discuss the status of Alabama Power Company's efforts tcf '

. install a Reactor Vessel. Level System at Farley Nuclear: Plant. Alabant.:

Power Company's schedule for this installation is.for-the work to be' 1 accomplished during the next three refueling outages for.
each unit. The

- first outage.(Unit 1, 6th and Unit 2,,3rd).will-be utilized for: system =

walkdowns:to obtain detailed measurements for design-development. The.

~

second and third outages'will:be utilized for: system installation.; The:. 7 scope;of work planned for the second outage includes installation of main control room' processor cabinets, outside containment; cable and cable trays,-

containment' penetration modules, cable trays inside containment from the containment penetration to: thel reactor cavity.'and'all reactor: vessel; f

internals and head modifications including : installation ofsthe' heated

= junction thermocouples.' Installation. of the Lreactor. cavity cableltrays,

containment mineral insulated cable and main control board displays are.

included.in.the scope'of work-for? the third outage.

f

.. ?As; discussed 11n the Janu'ary 22,!1985 meeting, installation.of the _

'~

Reactor. Vessel Level ; System-is scheduled;for completion by the: endtof the

. If the second outage 11s sufficiently extended beyondLthe -

third outage.

, established criticallpath' outage schedule and the remaining reactor 1 vessel

level modifications can be: performed without impacting the: return Lto power:'

[ critical path,.then the) Reactor Vessel-Level l$ystem installation will.be L Lcompleted at that time. An Joutage extension would ! allow the ; reactor ; cavity-

Mr. S. A. Varga February 20, 1985 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 Although such an outage extension is not currently planned, the packaging of the entire modification will be completed by the second outage. This packaging would allow Alabama Power Company to take advantage of any unscheduled outage extension and complete vessel level installation prior to startup from the Unit 1, 7th and Unit 2, 4th refueling outages.

In the event of an unforeseen shutdown of sufficient duration between the two installation outages where the remaining reactor vessel level modifications can be completed without impacting the outage critical path, Alabama Power Company will also be able to complete installation of the reactor vessel level system.

If you have any questions, please advise.

Yours truly, R. P. Mcdonald j
