Dear Mr. Tedesco:

In response to the August 13, 1981 letter on the Long Term Operability of Deep Draft Pumps which divided the recommended actions into installation instructions and testing procedures, Pennsylvania Power and Light Company has reviewed the concerns raised and has reached the following conclusions.

The original installation of the deep draft pumps on site is deemed adequate.

The procedures used for the installation are available onsite for IE Inspector review. These procedures ensured installation was within the manufacturers.

tolerances. Further, these pumps have operated without incident, as described later in this letter. Pump removal and reinstallation for the sole purpose of verifying proper installation is unnecessary. Deep draft pump assembly and disassembly maintenance procedures will be revised to include steps similar

'to the recommended guidelines stated in the subject letter. However, optical alignment to assure maximum straightness and concentricity of the assembly is unnecessary. Dial indication alignment checks will be performed. Additionally, the pump-tomotor flange parallelism and shaft perpendicularity checks will be included. Construction of the sumps for the deep draft pumps has also been completed. Pump testing has been performed to verify the absence of fluid anomalies, such as vortexing'r turbulance, in the suppression pool near, the Residual Heat Removal Pump intakes and the Core Spray Pump intakes.
