7 REODEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION GEORGIA POWER COMPANY. ET AL.

REQUEST TO AMEND THE PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMITS IN TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS' DOCKET NOS. 50-321 AND 50-366

1. It appears that the revised statement of Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.4.9.1(a) regarding Figures 3.4.9-1, Pressure / Temperature Limits for Inservice Hydrostatic and Inservice Leakage Tests, and 3.4.9-2, l Pressure / Temperature Limits for Non-Nuclear Heatup, Low Power Physics '

Tests, and Cooldown Following a Shutdown, is not consistent with the captions of those figures. Please correct this apparent discrepancy. j 1

2. Provide the generic P versus (T-RT ) curve and its methodology for the l uppervesselthatarementionedin,dENE-523-A137-1295, and the ratio of the worst stress around the feedwater nozzle to the membrane stress at places with no geometry discontinuity. Confirm that the generic P versus (T-RT ,7) curve for the bottom head that you are using is the same as that provided by Illinois Power in support of its recent pressure / temperature limits revision (dated February 22,1996) for the Clinton Power Station that has been reviewed by the staff. Otherwise, please provide similar information as requested for the upper vessel curve.

l

3. Provide the copper and nickel contents of the beltline limiting material for the Hatch Unit 2 vessel and confirm that all chemistry and material data used in generating the beltline P-T limit curves for Unit 2 are the same as those in your Generic letter 92-01 submittals.
