SUBJECT:

NRC BULLETIN 88-01, "OEFFCTS IN WESTINGHOUSE CIRCUIT BREAKERS" (TACS 65955/65956)

On February 5,1988, NRC Bulletin 88-01 was issued and requested holders of operating licenses or construction pemits to provide letters of confimation to the NRC of the cornpletion of specified inspections on Westinghouse DS series circuit breakers. Addressees who do not have 05 series circuit breakers in Class 1E service were requested to provide a letter to the NRC stating this fact.

Your response dated April 8,1988 confimed that Westinghouse DS series circuit breakers are not used in safety-related applications at the Vermont Yankee plant. Thus, your response to Bulletin 88-01 is satisfactory, and no further reply is necessary.

Sincerely.
