Gentlemen:
The'small' break loss of coolant accident (SBLOCA) analysis of record for-the Maine Yankee plant'was provided to the NRC as Reference (b).
The CE.
1 methodology and modelling logic used.in generating' that analysis is detailed
,V in both that submittal and.the Maine Yankee'FSAR', Reference (c).
This same methodology has been. utilized'by the_CEOG to provide a generic analysis, 6CEN-114-Pc Reference (d), to the NRC as the basis'for resolution of TMI Action
. Item II;K.3.30.
Reference:
(e), places this report on the Maine Yankee-A Edocket. -.-Subsequent CE0G analysis, CEN-203-P, Reference (f), has demonstrated m
-the.. appropriateness of this methodology to conservatively predict SBLOCA response q

-In Reference (g), the NRC has accepted the.CE0G methodology as appropriate to' resolve Action Item II.K.3.30.
Since the Maine. Yankee analysis of record was performed..with the same methodology, Maine Yankee now requests the
. closeout of Action' Item II.K.3.30, 4
The submittal of plant specific analysis, per Action. Item II.K.3.31, is n'o longer required for those plants. utilizing the CE methodology as approved
.through the resolution of Action Item II.K.3.30.
Therefore, in_accordance with the directions given in. Reference (g), Maine Yankee additionally requests the closeout of Action Item II.K.3.31.
We trust you will. find this course of action acceptable.
Please feel. free.

Very truly yours, MAINE YANKEE
