The report containing the results of the study entitled, "Review of the Structural Design of Polyethylene High Integrity Containers,"

is enclosed. The report also contains an Appendix that presents the results of the NRC consultant's review of the structural engineering analysis and information contained in your Topical Report entitled, "Topical Report, High Integrity Containers," and in your response to our October 15, 1987 letter, which is dated January 29, 1988.
