Subject:

Pressurizer Relief Tank (PRT) Temperature Indication Gentlemen:

In Reference (c) New Hampshire Yankee (NHY) made the following commitment:

"We will show that the quench tank temperature indication will remain functional and on-scale, including the maximum expected saturation temperature, during any accident that lifts the pressurizer relief valves, or provide a range that will envelop these conditions.

If an extended range is necessary it will be installed before startup after the first refueling outage."

This commitment was made in response to the review by EG&G Idaho Inc.,

for the NRC, of NHY's compliance with USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.97.

The EG&G review was do,cumented in Reference (b), Appendix L.

The purpose of this letter is to notify the NRC that NHY has completed this commitment. A design change has been implemented which extends the indication range of the PRT (RG 1.97 identifies as a quench tank) 0 temperature instrumentation to a temperature (350 F) which is above the 0

maximum expected saturation temperature (338 F) corresponding to the PRT rupture disk pressure of 100 psig. The details of this design change are available at Seabrc,ok Station for NRC review.
