Dear Mr. Lee:
As I discussed with you during our June 25, 1984 meeting, I and members of my
staff have a number of concerns about a new building at the Fort St. Vrain
site. This building, referred to as Building 10, contains some vital
electrical equipment and should, therefore, provide acceptable levels of
protection. Adequate information for us to reach a decision on the
acceptability of this building has not been provided. We, therefore, request
that you respond to the concerns presented in the enclosure to this letter.
Further, we request that your response be submitted within 30 days of the date
of this letter and be in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR Part 50. 54(f).
Since this reporting requirement relates solely to the Fort St. Vrain facility,
fewer than ten respondents are affected; therefore, OMB clearance is not required
under P. L. 96-511.
If you have any questions on this subject, please contact the NRC Project
Manager - Philip C. Wagner at (817) 860-8127.
Sincerely,
tJohn T. Collins
U Regional Administrator

NRC CONCERNS ABOUT BUILDING 10
1. The safety evaluation contained in the Change Notice for the construction
of Building 10 (CN 1460) concludes that the activity does not appear to
involve an unreviewed safety question nor does it appear to be safety
significant. We assume the basis for these conclusions is the statement
that "the design criteria for the new structure meets or exceeds that
applicable to the original plant." In order for us to determine your
compliance with the provisions of 10 CFR Parts 50.59 and 50.92 we request
that you provide a comparison of all applicable design criteria utilized
for Building 10 to those of the original plant.
2. Provide a description of all of the safety related equipment located
within Building 10 and briefly explain its function and/or significance;
also include a discussion of any plans you may have for the installation
of additional safety-related equipment.
3. Provide a discussion on how the provisions of 10 CFR Part 50.48 are being
fulfilled in the absence of a staff fire protection evaluation report
accepting the adequacy of protection to BTP 9. 5-1 .
4. Since it would appear that changes may be necessary to at least one of
the first four categories of information (Background, Generic Planning
Base, Licensee Planning Base, Responsibility Matrix) and that changes to
the safeguards contingency plan (together with detailed procedures and
personnel training) are required, provide a discussion on how the
provisions of 10 CFR Part 50. 54(p) were fulfilled.
