Enclosed please find a magnetic data tape containing available validated meteorological data taken from onsite meteorological instrumentation at Seabrook Station.
This information is being provided to the NRC Staff for their information and use.
The enclosed tape provides two files containing data for the periods of 4/1/79 through 12/31/83 and 10/1/86 tnrough 6/30/87.
The enclosed Appendix provides further details on tape format, data format and available meteorological parameters.
The tape format was developed using the recommended format for transmitting onsite meteorological data as described in Section 2.3.3 of Appendix A of Standard Review Plan (!MREG-0800).

APPENDIX TAPE CHARACTERISTICS AND DATA FORMAT FOR SEABROOK STAION METEOROLOGICAL DATA TAPES Taoe Format:
Nine track, EBCDIC, Standard label, Record Length = 160, Block size = 3200, Density = 1600 BPI Data Formq11 The tape data format is intended to follow the NRC recommended format outlined in Appendix A of Standard Review Plan Section 2.3.3 (Onsite Meteorological Measurement Programs).
Note that all measurements were made in English Units (e.g.,
wind speed in mph, temperature / dew point in dog F, temp. diff. in dog F/ delta-i height, and precipitation in inches) and were converted to Metric Units for the purpone of creating the tapes.
Each tape contains two files:
the first file contains
[
meteorological data for the period 04/01/79 through 12/31/83 and the second contains data for the period 10/01/86 through
{
06/30/87.
The first five records of each file contain a tape description, f
including plant name, location (latitude, longitude),
dates of data, and heights of measurements.
The format for these five records is 160A1.
The remaining records in each file contain the meteorological data in format (I6,I2,I3,I4,25F5.1,FS.2,3F5.1). A description of the meteorological data format is provided in Exhibit A.
All data is provided to the tenth of a unit, except solar radiation which is given to a hundredth of a unit. Note that all nines in a field (99999) indicates a lost record and all sevens in a wind direction field (77777) indicates calm (wind speeds less than 0.5 mph).
Listings of the first 20 records in each of the two files are provided in Exhibits B and C.
