DearMr.Crutchfield:

Rochester GasandElectricsubmitted environmental qualifi-cationinformation relativetoinstalled "TMIitems"byletterdatedJanuary30,1981.Recently, theNRCconsultants, FranklinResearchCenter,requested thatweresubmitthisinformation, aswellasprovidethestatusofseveralotherNUREG-0737 items.Thisinformation isenclosed.

Thequalification documentation isbeingprovidedonlytoMr.CyrilCraneofFRC.RG&Ealsotakesthisopportunity tonotethatafailureevaluation oftheDB-50breakers(usedforreactortrip)underadverseconditions suchashightemperature, highhumidity,

flooding, andvibration isprovidedinSection3.5ofWCAP-7706-L, "AnEvaluation ofSolidStateLogicReactorProtection inAnticipated Transients" byW.C.GangloffandW.D.Loftus,datedJuly1971.Althoughqualitative innature,thisreportdoesprovideadditional indication that.thereactortripbreakerswouldperformtheirfunction(fail-safe) intheshort.timetheyarerequired.

Theinstrumentation generating aSafetyInjection signal,aswellassteamgenerator level,wasdiscussed inRGSE'sprevioussubmittals, andnoadditional information isre-quired.RGSEhaspreviously committed toreplacethosetransmitters locatedinaharshenvironment (seeRG&E'sOctober31,1980andSeptember 4,1981lettersforthelatestcommitment statusforthisequipment).
