Dear Sir:
A reanalysis of the Three Mile Island Unit 2 (TMI-2) Reactor Vessel (RV) steady state and accident criticality safety evaluations was necessitated by an increase in the estimated quantity of fuel remaining in the TMI-2 RV above that assumed for the previous analyses (References I and 2). The n: analysis (attached) was performed by the Oak Ridge National laboratory (ORNL).
A conservative criticality model was used to bound the most credible fuel configurations. The ORNL analyses demonstrated that the TMI-2 RV will remain suberitical by a substantial margin in both the steady state and accident configurations notwithstanding the conservative criticality models and assumptions.
Sir..erely,
