CONFORMANCE TO ITEM 2.1 (PART 2) OF GENERIC LETTER 83-28 REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM VENDOR INTERFACE POINT BEACH-1 AND -2 SAN ONOFRE-1

1. INTRODUCTION On July 8, 1983, Generic Letter 83-281 was issued by D. G. Eisenhut, Director of the Division of Licensing, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, to all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for operating licenses, and holders of construction permits. This letter included required actions based on generic implications of the Salem ATWS events. These requirements have been published in Volume 2 of NUREG-1000, "Generic Implications of ATWS Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant."

This report documents the EG&G Idaho, Inc. review of the submittals of three of the Westinghouse plants, Point Beach-1 and -2 and San Onofre-1, for conformance to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of Generic Letter 83-28. The submittals from the licensees utilized in these evaluations are referenced in Section 7 of this report.

2. REVIEW REQUIREMENTS Item 2.1 (Part 2) (Reactor Trip-System - Vendor Interface) requires licensees and applicants to establish, implement and maintain a continuing program to ensure that vendor information on Reactor Trip System (RTS) components is complete, current and controlled throughout the life of the plant, and appropriately referenced or incorporated in plant instructions and procedures. The vendor interface program is to include periodic communications with vendors to assure that all applicable information has been received, as well as a system of positive feedback with vendors for mailings containing technical information, e. g., licersee/applicant acknowledgment for receipt of technical information.

That part of the vendor interface program which ensures that vendor information on RTS components, once acquired, is appropriately controlled, referenced and incorporated in plant instructions and procedures, will be evaluated as part of the review of Item 2.2 of the Generic Letter.

Because the Nuclear Steam System Supplier (NSSS) is ordinarily also the supplier of the entire RTS, the NSSS is also the principal source of information on the components of the RTS. This review of the licensee and applicant submittals will:

1. Confirm that the licensee/applicant has identified an interface with either the NSSS or with the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Trip System.
2.

Confirm that the interface identified by licensees/applicants includes periodic communication with the NSSS or with the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Trip System.

3. Confirm that the interface identified by licensees/applicants includes a system of positive feedback to confirm receipt of transmittals of technical information.

2

3. GROUP REVIEW RESULTS The relevant submittals from each of the included reactor plants were reviewed to determine compliance with Item 2.1 (Part 2).

First, the submittals from each plant were reviewed to establish that Item 2.1 (Part 2) was specifically addressed. Second, the submittals were evaluated to determine the extent to which each of the plants complies with the staff guidelines for Item 2.1 (Part 2).

4. REVIEW RESULTS FOR POINT BEACH-1 AND -2 4.1 Evaluation Wisconsin Electric Power Company, the licensee for Point Beach-1 and -2, provided their response to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter on April 5, 1984. In that response, the licensee confirms that the NSSS for Point Beach is Westinghouse and that the Reactor Trip System (RTS) for Point Beach is included as a part of the Westinghouse interface program established for the Point Beach NSSS.

The Westinghouse interface program for the NSSS includes both periodic communication between Westinghouse and licensees/applicants and positive feedback from licensees/applicants in the form of signed receipts for technical information transmitted by Westinghouse.

4.2 Conclusion We find the licensee's confirming statement that Point Beach is a participant in the Westinghouse interface program for the RPS meets the staff position on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter and is, therefore, acceptable.

5.

REVIE RESULTS FOR SAN ONOFRE-1 5.1 Evaluation Southern California Edison Company, the licensee for San Onofre-1, provided their response to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter on November 28, 1983. In that response, the licensee confirms that the NSSS for San Onofre-1 is Westinghouse and that the Reactor Trip System (RTS) for San Onofre-1 is included as a part of the Westinghouse interface program established for the San Onofre-1 NSSS.

The Westinghouse interface program for the NSSS includes both periodic communication between Westinghouse and licensees/applicants and positive feedback from licensees/applicants in the form of signed receipts for technical information transmitted by Westinghouse.

5.2 Conclusion We find the licensee's confirming statement that San Onofre-1 is a participant in the Westinghouse interface program for the RPS meets the staff position on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter and is, therefore, acceptable.

6. GROUP CONCLUSION We conclude that the licensee/applicant responses for the listed Westinghouse plants for Item 4.5.2 of Generic Letter 83-28 are acceptable.
