The licensee had issued a memorandum to operations and maintenance personnel reminding them of the requirement to address all items on the E0R and the reasons for this requirement. The effectiveness of the corrective action will be assessed based on the results of the next audit of this area by the licensee. The inspector was satisfied that the corrective action was appropriate and that the effectiveness would be assessed by the licensee within an appropriate time frame, (0 pen) (Arresolved Item (155/85010-02): Contrary to the requirements i of the revised Nuclear Operations Department Standard N0DS-P01 (" Equipment Status Identification and Verification"), plant operating procedures permitted operability testing to be used as an independent verification of system alignment. At the time of this inspection the licensee had not implemented the revised standard. This item will remain open pending NRC review of licensee actio (0 pen) Unresolved Item (155/85010-03): Failure to ensure that cancelled N005 were not used as "use" references in the administra-tive procedures (APs) or other NODS.
