August 30, 1985. taken from a population The statistical of pipe sample supports forincluded which the evaluation was/ elated both safety-and non-safety-related applications. This random sample resulted in a larger than expected number of non-safety-related supports. In order i to obtain the most accurate representation of Pullman Power Products' L quality control program, additional samples were taken of supports in I safety-related applications. Because of this, we were unable to complete ,

the evaluation within the schedule established in our earlier  ;

correspondence. [

Georgia Power Company wishes to defer transmittal of our report t to the USNRC on this matter until September 20, 1985. We apologize for this inadvertent delay.
