SUBJECT:

OYSTER CREEK DEFERMEN'T OF MODIFICATIONS

Reference:

Your memo to Assistant Directors dated February 4,1982, same subject to GPU's letter of December 24, 1981 provided a safety assessment of those modifications which.are proposed to be deferred i from the 1982 to the 1984 refueling outage for Oyster Creek. 'In view - - of the large number of modifications to.be c ompleted in 1982 which will provide a significant increase in plant saft.ty and the licensee's assess- ] ment of the impact for the delay of items until 1984, ICSB concludes that requested relief for Protection System Analog Upgrade, Containment High Range Radiation Monitor, Radiation S,ignal's Purge and Vent Valves, and Torus Temperature Instrumentation is acceptable. j s} 2 MA .g.v1 Faust Rosa, Chief Instrumentation 2: Control Systems Branch Division of Systems Ir.tegration cc: T.
