Data Point Library Modifications Ladies and Gentlemen:

In accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section VI, Item 3a, Southern Nuclear Operating Company is submitting changes to the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Unit I and 2 Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) data point library. The changes were completed on July 27, 2004.

The data points T6174 (Primary MET Tower 60-10 Meter Delta Temperature) were revised to accommodate abnormal weather conditions that may occur.

If you have any questions, please advise.

Sincerely, ie e T.asser JTG/TDH

Enclosures:

Marked-up changes to the Unit I and 2 ERDS data point library.
