JUN 211983 Docket No.: 50-275 Dr. William E. Cooper Teledyne Engineering Services 130 Second Avenue Waltham, Massachusetts 02254
Dear Dr. Cooper:
The staff and our consultant, Brookhaven National Laboratories (BNL),
have completed the review of Interim Technical Reports (ITRs) 13,16, 39 and 40 (Reference 1 through 4). These reports were prepared by R. L.
Cloud Associates (RLCA) as part of the Diablo Canyon Unit 1 Independent Design Verification Program (IDVP).
In addition, the staff and BNL assisted in a Region V inspection of background information referenced in the reports on June 8, 9 and 10, 1983 at the offices of RLCA.
Based on our review, we have concluded that ITRs 13, 39 and 40 do not adequately address a number of geotechnical issues related to the intake structure and therefore do not provide an acceptable basis for the conclusions contained therein. Our principal concerns are:
(1) ITR 13 does not define the material properties of the backfill and therefore the adequacy of the analysis and design cannot be assessed.
(2) The methodology and the assumptions for determination of soil strength used in ITR 39 to compute lateral earth pressures are, in our opinion, inappropriate for large magnitude earthquakes.
(3)
ITR 40 only verifies the magnitude of the parameters used in the sliding analysis. Consistent with IDVP objectives, we believe that
, the ITR should assess the factor of safety against sliding under the Hosgri seismic event.
The concerns listed above were discussed with representatives of RLCA in some detail at the exit interview following the audit. At that time the staff agreed that these matters are difficult to discuss in a number of ITRs of narrow scope, as was attempted.
It is our understanding that

revisions to the four ITRs referenced will be made and that this information, as well as the remaining geotechnical issues, will be combined into a single report. The NRC staff is available to discuss these matters further if you desire.
Sincerely, a

Dear Mr. Schuyler:
PMorrill In a meeting with you on May 4,1983 we discussed, among other issues, eight allegations that had been made by an anonymous individual regarding the Diablo Canyon design verification effort. At the conclusion of the meeting we requested that you provide us.with any additional information on these matters as you would detemine to be appropriate.
Based on our review of the transcriipt and in order to establish an auditable record we request that you address each of the allegations in writing.
You should state if a particular concern, based on your understanding of that concern, is valid or not and provide your bases.
If a particular concern is addressed in your internal program or in the IDVP you should state when and how the concern was raised and included in the effort.
If a concern is valid but not addressed in the verification effort you should discuss how it is being resolved.
Please provide the requested infomation within two weeks after receipt of this letter.
Sincerely, Wi inal signed by B
