Subject:
Docket No. 50-206 Withdrawal of a Request for Temporary Waiver of Compliance Inservice Testing - Safety Injection System San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1
Reference:
Letter, R. W. Krieger (SCE) to J. B. Martin (NRC-RV), dated October 27, 1992 The referenced letter requested a Temporary Waiver of Compliance from the requirements of Technical Specification (TS) 4.7, "Inservice Inspection Requirements," for a period of approximately one month. This request was based on a conservative interpretation of the Licensing basis for the recirculation pump IST wet test interval as stated in Pump Relief Request (PRR) No. 3, "Safety Injection Recirculation Pump - Alternate Testing."
This PRR states that the recirculation pumps shall be tested wet "every refueling or once every 2 years."
The two year intervals for recirculation pumps G45A and G45B expire today on October 28 and on October 31, 1992, respectively.
On October 28, 1992, at approximately 10:00 am PST, we were informed by the NRC (Mr. M. Fields) that the requested waiver was not required. The NRC indicated that the PRR No. 3 wording allows the application of either the 2 year or the refueling interval in this case.
It was indicated that the 2 years need not be considered as a limit on the normal refueling interval test. Thus, we withdraw our request for a Temporary Waiver of Compliance and no additional NRC action is requested on this issue.
We appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. If you have any questions or comments, or if you would like additional information, please let me know.
Sincerely, Document Control Desk, USNRC, Washington, C.
