Dear Mr. Andrews:

SUBJECT:

PROJECTED VA' LUES OF MATERIAL PROPERTIES FOR FRACTURE TOUGHNESS REQUIREMENTS _FOR PROTECTION AGAINST PRESSURIZED, THERMAL SH0CK EVENTS The NRC staff has completed the review of your letter dated January 23, 1986, and the supplemental information in your May 7,-1986 letter, which you submitted in response to the Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) Rule, 10 CFR 50.61, for the-Fort Calhoun Station,-Unit No.

1~.

The staff's Safety Evaluation is enclosed.

The staff finds that the material properties of the reactor vessel beltline

. material.are acceptable.

The staff also finds the projected fluence at the

~

inner surface o_f the' reactor vessel at the expiration date of the license (June'7, 2008) and the calculated RT at the expiration date of the license to be acceptable based on an evaluat$M at 32 effective full power years of operation.

The Fort Calhoun reactor is projected to have less than-32 effective full power years of operation at the expiration date of the license.

The calculated RT is below the screening criterion of 270 F

~

of 10 CFR 50.61.

Thismeet$TkherequirementsofthePTSRule.

The PTS Rule requires that the projected assessment of the RT be updated wheneverchangesincoreloadings,surveillancemeasurements,pNother information (including changes _in capacity factor) indicate a significant change in the projection values.

This ensures that the licensees will track the fluence at the limiting beltline materials throughout the life of the plant to verify their assumptions.

In this regard, we request that you submit are-evaluationoftheRT[kalswhicharerequiredby10CFRPart50,AppendixG.

and comparison of the predicted value with future Pressure-Temperaturesubm$

This request for information was approved by OM8 under clearance number 3150-0011 which expires September 30, 1989.

Comments on burden and duplication may be directed to the Office of Management and Budget, Reports Management, Room 3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington, D.C.
