However, the staff stated that similarity of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 SPDS's must be demonstrated.

Georgia Power Company's discussion of this similarity is attached.

e..s SPOS SIMILARITY BETWEEN UNIT 1 AND UNIT 2 The software used in the verification and validation of the Unit 2 SPDS is the same sof tware used in the verification and validation of the Unit 1 SPDS.

With regard to the similarity of the Unit 2 Emergency Response Facility (ERF) computer to the Unit 1 ERP computer the dif f erences are outlined below.

The Unit 2 ER? computer hardware le identical to the Unit 1

computer except the meteorological data (16 inputs), the common radiation data (26 inputs), and some miscellaneous HVAC damper positions (17 inputs) are not terminated in the Unit 2 computer.

Therefore the Unit 1 and Unit 2 software is !dentical except for the following:

1.

There is no data base information in the Unit 2 computer pertaining to the inputs above.

2.

The software which drives the radiation status lights as part of the Unit 2 SPDS does not "look" at the common radjation data.

This is the only difference in the SPDS portion of the two EdF computers.

3.

The software which computes the met tower data averages and drives the three (3) met tower displays has been deleted from the Unit 2 software.

If should be noted that there may be some normal and alarm setpoint differences in ti;e two d; ta bases due to operating dif f erences in the units.
