of those portions of the high-pressure safety injection system piping designated as Code Class 1 l

l with nominal pipe sizes between 4 inches and 1% inches inclusive, and the need for addressees to maintain the integrity of this reactor coolant pressure boundary piping in l

L

- accordance with the provisions of their current facility licensing bases and report to the NRC '

their previous actions for verifying the integrity of the subject piping and their plans regarding i

i future inspections. The comment period for this proposed generic letter was originally scheduled to expire on April 29,1998. In a letter dated March 31,1998, the Nuciw Energy Institute requested a 30-day extension of the comment period to permit sufficient time to reach j
