( SU19fARY OF MhETING WITH PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY TO DISCUJS FORTHCOMING GEOLOGY / SEISMOLOGY SUDMITTAL FOR DIABLO CANYON 1RICLFAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 & 2 (OL) l Mambers of the NRC staf f met with a representative of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) in Bethesda, Maryland'on August 28, 1975 to discusa a forthcoming g: ology and ceismology submittal for Diablo Canyon.

A list of participants is presented in the enclosure.

PG&E was preparing a submittal to address (1) The earthquake to be aosociated with the Hosgri Fault.

(2) The calculated acceleration (g-value) at the site resulting from such an earthq 2ake.

(3) The ground response spectrum to be associated with that g-value, and _

(4) The effect of the earthquake, with its associated g-value and groun3 response spectrum at the site, on the plant structures, equipment and syste:2a.

In connection with the forthcoming subnittal, PCLE had been discussing the shape of the ground response spectrum (item (3) above) with its t

I consulte.ut, John Blume. Acceptability of the spectral shape to the staf f would be among the considerations in celecting a spectral shape. Previous staff questions to PG&E had implied that a narrow spectrum, such as a Parkfield-5 of Cast alc earthquake spectrum, would be appropriate for the Hosgri Fault. Uowever, PG&C and John Elune were also considering a broad spectrum einilar to the spectrum given in Regulatory Guide 1.60. Such j

a broad spectrun could be obtained by enveloping or averaginn appropriate specific narrow spectra from the Parkfield-5, Castaic and several other earthquakes. It would have a more severe effect on structures, equipment and systems than a narrow spectrum. PG&E wished to learn as much as possible about the staff's attitude on this matter.

i 007 ^ 01975 j The staff technical personnel responsible for reviewing the adequacy of the ground response spectra (Site Analysis Branch) did not participate in the meeting. However, staff personnel from Reactor Licensing and fron the Structural Engineering Branch discussed the matter with the PG&E representative. The staff personnel did not give a firm recommendation on which spectrum to use. The staff did state that when PG&E selected a spectrum, the staff would review its adequacy for assessing the affects of an earthquke on the Hosgri Fault and that this did not necessarily mean that a broad spectrum such as the one in Regulatory Guide 1.60 would be required.

Tnis memarardum is to advise you of the status bf the Safety Evaluation l Report (SER) ard its supplements fx Diablo Canyon Units 1 and 2 ard to l surmarize the outstanding ites. The cutstarding iterne are categorized accordirr, to tle metlxd poposed in your memorandum of Decemter 5,1974 to Mr. H. K. Shapar. 1 1

Tne SER ms issued on October 16, 1974 and Supplement No. I was issued on l January 31, 1975. The ACRS did rot poceed with the review because we had l rot Insolved the geology /seisaology issues. Following E. G. Case % request, i ACRS has agreed to consider the application in two parts. The first part, )

which excludes geology, seisnology ard seisntic design is scheduled fm consideration by the full ACRS in June 1975, with a subsequent meeting in September 1975. This split approach will etable us to minimize the length of our review ard its impact on fuel loadiry; fx Dialdo Canyon Urit 1. We are row prepared to issue Supplement Mo. 2 to support the ACRS consideration l

at its June r?etire. l' li. Supplement No. 2, we have idertified certain issues categorized as outstanding issues in our review which require the applicant to provide  :

confinatory infon:ution in onder that we may cmplete our review, x  ;

which requiry our evaluation of infortatim already provided by the applicant ard which is currently urder review. These issues involve infarrntion that require our evaluation prix to issuance of an operating license fx this application. The issues in this category are surmerized in i.ttachaent A and further discussed in the sections of the SER ard/or its supplo:ents, as irdicated in the attachnent. We anticipate that rat, if rot all, of these issues (other than those related to geology, seistology ard seis: tic design) can be satisfactorily cmpleted prix to our scheduled date fx issuance of the supplement to the SER follcwring the June ACRS meeting.

Mr

MAy 081875-A. Giamtusso  !

We have also identifjed certain issues categorized as resolved issues on which we hwe completal our review and hwe estahlfahed a position to which the apn14aant han m t yet agreed in the FSAR. The issues in this catagery are sumerized in Attactinent B and arv rHarumsed in the sections of the SIR and/w the supplements as indicated in the attac h ant. We anticipate that these immum will be entisfactorily a:idrwssed in the supplanant to the SER following the June ACRS meetirg.

(k1 the basis of our assessnant that the issues identified in' Attachants A and B, which are not related to geology, seiselogy or m.4 m4* design, can be satisfactorily concluded prim' to our scheduled date fw issur,yne

. of the supplement to the SER followirs the June ACRS meeting, we r*W i that Supplement No. 2 be issued and that we meet with the ACRS in June j as. scheduled.
