SUMMARY

OF MEETING WITH ENTERGY OPERATIONS, INC. ON THE CONTAINMENT ISOLATION SYSTEMS DESIGN I

On April 23, 1997, members of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff met with representatives of Entergy Operations, Inc. (E0I) at Waterford Steam 4

Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3), at Killona,~ Louisiana to discuss the design and licensing basis of certain essential containment isolation systems

at Waterford 3. This was a follow-up meeting from the meeting on March 21, 1997. E01 provided a detailed planning to resolve the containment isolation

! issues for certain essential systems at Waterford 3. The short term and long -

, term resolutions for the Containment Spray (Penetration 34 and 35), Component Cooling Water to the Containment Fan Coolers, and Chemical and Volume Control

! System (Penetration 27) were discussed. The NRC staff provided its generic

. interpretation of the requirements for the containment isolation systems. The staff requested E01 to provide a detail submittal describing its approach in

! resolving the containment isolation issue for each system in question. E0I j- indicated that it will submit a written response for each system in question.

! A list of Attendees is provided in Enclosure 1. A copy of E0I's presentation

is provided in Enclosure 2.
