.- REC'UEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION COF:E SPRAY SYSTEM SURVEILLANCE TEST The proposed change addresses the Core Spray System surveillance test requirements of Specification 4.5.A.1.b. The present requirement states that the

" core spray pumps shall deliver at least 4625 gpm against a system head corresponding to a total pump developed head of > 113 psig."

The amendment would change the specification to state that the

" core spray pumps shall deliver at least 4625 gpm against a system head corresponding to a reactor vessel pressure of > 113 psi above primary containment pressure."

In light of the information presented in the Final Safety Analysis Report Figure No. 6.4-2, and any other pertinent information, please justify use of the value of reactor pressure stated in the amendment, or of another value to be determined from your analysis.
