UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555

November 9, 1979

TO ALL PENDING CONSTRUCTION PERMIT APPLICANTS

Gentlemen:

SUBJECT: DISCUSSION OF LESSONS LEARNED SHORT TERM REQUIREMENTS

On October 10, 1979, you received a letter which defined a set of "short term" requirements resulting from the NRC staff investigations of the TMI accident. Since the letter was issued, the staff has further defined these requirements.

Enclosure 1 provides the additional clarifications of the NRC staff requirements as provided to licensees of operating reactors. Enclosure 2 provides a list of modifications to these clarifications to make them applicable to duplicants for operating licenses, applicants for construction permits and licensees of plants under construction. It should be noted that the intent of these requirements and the purpose of our letter of October 10, 1979 have not changed.

If you have any questions regarding these actions, please contact the NRC Project Manager for your facility.

Sincerely,

D. B. Vassallo, Acting Director Division of Project Management Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
