Inourevaluation, ofFloridaPowerandLightCom-pany'ssubmittal concerning "FirePumpController (4.3.1.2, 9.0)undercoverletterdatedJanuary7,1980,weindicated thatwithouttheprovision ofadieselenginedrivenfirepump,thearrangement ofstartingtheelectricmotordrivenfirepumpsnotemploying listedfirepumpcontrollers wasunacceptable.
