MEMORANDUM FOR: Victor Stello, Jr.

Executive Director for Operat ns k

FROM: Nunzio J. Palladino / ),f SbBJECT: PRIORITY TASK - DAVIS BE SE FINDINGS PRIOR TO RESTART/ -J'jk gggjgj By memorandum dated April 3, 1986, you advised that Toledo Edison will not complete items necessary for plant startup prior to October 1, 1986. Initially, the Commission was advised that the Davis Besse return to service plan had called for completion of IIT items this spring and had scheduled plant startup for May of this year.

It is my present understanding that the reason for the Davis Besse schedule slippage is the need to replace the reactor coolant pump shafts due to the recently discovered shaft cracking. Furthermore, I understand that replacement of shafts is being voluntarily undertaken by the licensee. Finally, I understand that the licensee has delayed their final submittal to staff on IIT items to take advantage of the additional time made available as a result of the outage extension.

If my above understanding of the reason for the startup delay is correct, it would be appropriate for the staff to brief the Commission shortly after completion of its safety evaluation associated with the IIT items. This will allow the Commission to address the Davis Besse IIT report in a timely manner.

Regarding other items such as reactor coolant shaft replacement, the staff should make the appropriate findings and decisions later and keep the Commission informed.

Please provide the schedule for the final licensee submittal.

I would also appreciate receiving your schedule for completing the staff's evaluation of the Davis Besse IIT items and sending a report to the Commission. Finally, I would like to know when you will be able to brief the Commission on the IIT results.
