e LNCLOSURE Emergency Operating Procedures have been revised to incorporate the require-ment for ensuring at least a 430F subcooling margin (normal full. power sub-cooling) before terminating safety injection. This is in accordance with the Small-Break Loss-of-Coolant Accident Operator Guidelines approved by NRC by your letter to Mr. Cordell Reed, dated November 5, 1979.

Currently, the non-LOCA transients and E01's are being reviewed for the pur-poses of incorporating a subcooling criterion in the HPI termination criteria.

These activities will be completed and transmitted to the NRC by the Owner's Group chairman within the 21 day requirement.

Derivation of instrument irors associated with measurement of RCS pressure and temperature for ensuring adequate core subcooling is given below.

Pressure RCS wide range pressure is measured by ITT Barton, Model 763 pressure trans-mitters.

Qualification of the transmitters are documented in the Westinghouse document entitled " Qualification Testing of Barton Pressure and Differential Pressure Transmitters" transmitted to Mr. J. F. Stolz on September 29, 1978.

The following describes errors in indicated pressure as a result of normal and post-accident environment:
