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

June 25, 1980

TO ALL POWER REACTOR APPLICANTS AND LICENSEES

Gentlemen:

Enclosed with this letter is a Commission Memorandum and Order dated May 27, 1980. The Order contains decisions on the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) petition of May 2, 1978 for reconsideration of a previous Memorandum and Order dated April 13, 1978. The April 13, 1978 Order responded to the UCS original petition of November 4, 1977. This petition sought action in two areas: fire protection for electrical cables, and environmental qualification of electrical components.

This Memorandum and Order is provided for your information. In the near future, you will be provided with further guidance and requirements to implement the decisions contained in the order.

Sincerely,

Darrell G. Eisenhut, Director Division of Licensing

Enclosure:

Memorandum and Order
