Prior to startup following the first refueling outage, GSU shall' implement modifications (installation or upgrade) for those items listed below con-sistent with the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Revision 2 unless prior approval of an alternate design of these items is granted by the NRC staff.
These items as listed in GSU's letter of June 24, 1985 are:

primary system safety relief valve position; f
standby liquid control system storage tank level; g
emergency ventilation damper position; and h
airborne radiohalogens 'and particulates.
The staff and its consultant, EG&G, have reviewed your proposed response to Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.97 as co'ntained in the River Bend FSAR and letters dated June 24, 1985 and July 23, 1985. The staff has prepared a safety evaluation report (SER) and the consultant a Technical Evaluation Report (Enclosed) which concludes that your design is acceptable, except for the neutron flux instrumentation.
I am forwarding this SER to you so you understand the basis for our evaluation.
