Enclosure 1 is a copy of draft of NUREG/CR-1833, "Seismic Review of the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 as Part of the Systematic Evaluation Program.
11 This report will serve as the principal input for the staff's final assessment for Systematic Evaluation Program topics III-6, "Seismic Design Considerations" and I II-11, "Component Integrity". Pl ease inform us if your as-built facility differs from the licensing basis assumed in our assessment.
According to our review, some open items have been identified (Enclosure 2} related to these topics. The detailed evaluation of these open items can be found in the attached report.
In order to complete our review on these topics, we require additional information from you.
You should submit within 30 days from the date of this letter information which is requested in Enclosure 2.
In the event that analysis is necessary for you to complete your evalua-tion, you should submit a schedule for completion of each open item.
Proposed modifications identified in our report are representative of the types of modifications which should be considered to upgrade seismic safety margins. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59 you should indepen-dently evaluate the necessity of any modifications to your facility.

ENCLOSURE 2 OPEN ISSUES PALISADES NUCLEAR POWER STATION The following list documents issues that developed as a result of our seismic review of the Palisades facility. These issues have been highlighted for a variety of reasons.
In some cases, a lack of adequate documentation exists. Designation here does not necessarily imply a safety deficiency.
However, the NRC staff has determined that further documentation of the seismic resistance capacity of these items is requested.
This documentation should include an evaluation by Consumer's Power Company.
- 1.
Essential Service Water Pump - Insufficient information was provided to (1) determine stresses and the material used in the discharge head, thus, allowable stresses in the head are unknown, and (2) evaluate the functional adequacy of the pump.
- 2.
Auxiliary Feedwater Pump - Insufficient information was provided to evaluate the functional adequacy of the pump.
- 3.
Diesel Generator Oil Storage Tank - No information was provided for evaluation.
- 4.
Safety* Injection Tank - Provided information is insufficient to demonstrate structural integrity of the tank and its support.
- 5.
Motor-Operated Valves - Sample small p1p1ng seismic analysis report has been received (12/4/80 submittals). According to our review, this analysis was not performed based on the as-built condition. Thus, no evaluation can be made at this time until additional information is provided.
- 6.
Control Rod Drive Mechanism - Insufficient information was provided to evaluate the functional adequacy.
- 7.
Steam Generator - Insufficient information was provided to verify design adequacy.
- 8.
Reactor Coolant Pump - Insufficient information was provided to verify design adequacy.
- 9.
Reactor Vessel Supports and Inter.vals - Insufficient information*
was provided to verify design adequacy.
- 10.
Battery Racks - Racks O.K., with the exception of wooden lateral bracing which should be replaced or strengthened to carry full seismic inertia loads.
', 11.
Motor Control Centers - No information available to evaluate rack structural adequacy or electrical component functionality.
- 12.
Switchgear - No information available to evaluate switch-gear rack structural adequacy or electrical component functionality.
- 13.
Control Room Electrical Panels - Insufficient information was provided to verify design adequacy.
- 14.
