ENCLOSURE 3 - STACK ALIGNMENT AFTER GUY WIRE RETENSIONING Instruction: Show to scale a point with dimensions representing the position of the centerline of the stack at the guy location, with respect to centerline of the stack at the base, in the applicable quadrant. In this case the stack "base" is the lowest visible elevation which can be seen from the set-up locations of the optical survey instruments.

NOTE North is defined by the PNPS convention shown on Drawing C322A, which differs from true north.

4.0 DISCUSSION

(-'

The Main Stack is constructed from 30" diameter by 5/8"thick steel pipe and is supported atop the Main Stack Fiiter Building, located about 700 feet northwest of the Reactor Building. Its top elevation is approximately 400 feet above mean seawater level. It is laterally supported at three different elevations by three guy wires 120 degrees apart. Each guy wire is connected to the stack at the upper end and fastened to a concrete anchor block at the ground level. Guy wire tensions must be maintained within acceptable ranges to limit stack deflections and stresses under design basis wind loading.

5.0 SPECIAL TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT Transit (or equal) to check stack alignment (Augmented Scope only)

\rz/ Shunt type dynamometer (or equal) to check guy wire tension (Augmented Scope only)

[3] Access to wind speed, direction, and air temperature data (Augmented Scope only)

/ Binoculars for visual inspections of unreachable locations above ground level

[/Radios and phone for emergency communications

[ W S a f e t y equipment for worker protection when climbing

'- Lz/ Camera 6.0 QRECAUTlONSAND LIMITATIONS safety precautions shall be observed at all times while performing inspection:

Authorization must be obtained from the SM prior to the inspection.

General condition inspection should be performed by experienced and trained personnel using proper safety equipment (PNPS 1.4.54).

Personnel climbing the stack ladder shall use a full body harness and center rail ladder

&"' /

climbing device and have a means of communication (preferrably radiolphone) with ground personnel.

Ground personnel shall he equipped with a radiolphone to permit communications with climbers and the Station.
