Mr. Alexander Protsenko Chairman U.S.S.R. State Committee for the Utilization of Atomic Energy
Dear Mr. Protsenko:
I appreciated the opportunity to meet with you in Vienna and was most interested ir. the information which you provided on the fire at Ignalina.
As I mentioned, NRC has a large body of information on the major fire that occurred in 1975 at a U.S. commercial f acility, the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant.
I have enclosed three documents concerning the 1975 fire that I believe may be of interest to you.
These documents will provide you with a good overview of our experience with a significant fire that resulted in spurious component opera tion, loss of control functions, and erroneous control room instrumentation readings.
I hope that this information will be helpful to you.
Sincerely, N* W Lando W. Zec i Jr.
