Reference:

G.C. Andognini to F.J. Miraglia, Jr. letter dated February 25, 1988

Dear Sirs:

In the referenced letter the District committed to resolve the Control Roca habitability concern with respect to ammonia.

This commitment was reiterated by the NRC staff in NUREG-1286, Supplement 1, with a date of June 1,1988, for resolution.

Pursuant to this commitment the District evaluated the use of ammonia on site and as a result will reduce the concentration of the bulk ammonia storage tank from 28 to 20 weight percent by June 1,1988.

Attached are the assumptions and results of the re-evaluation of the ammonia spill assuming a 20 weight percent solution.

Adequate time exists from odor detection until donning of breathing apparatus (Regulatory Guide 1.78);

therefore, the lowering of the ammonia concentration will result in an acceptable Control Room environment in the event of a postulated ammonia spill.

Members of your staff with questions requiring additional information or clarification may contact Mr. David Swank at (209) 333-2935, extension 4920.
