Re: Oconee Nuclear Station N ***

Docket No. 50-287

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

On June 10, 1982 your office was informed that two fuel assemblies were found with broken holddown springs during a visual inspection. This constitutes per-formance of components that requires remedial action to prevent operation in a manner less conservative than assumed in the accident analyses in the safety analysis report. Reportable Occurrence Report R0-287/82-07 providing details of this incident was to have been submitted to you by June 24, 1982, pursuant to Technical Specification 6.6.2.1.a(9). However, the investigation of this incident and the preparation of a report are incomplete at this time. It is expected that the investigation and report will be completed, reviewed, and submitted to you no later than July 23, 1982.

Very ruly yours, o
