Dockets Nos. 50-269, 50-270 and 50-287 Mr. Hal B. Tucker Vice President - Nuclear Production APR 27 1987 Duke Power Company P. 0. Box 33189 422 South Church Street Charlotte, North Carolina 28242

Dear Mr. Tucker:

SUBJECT:

GENERIC LETTER 83-28, ITEM 4.5.2, REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM RELIABILITY (SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL TESTING)(TACs 54005/54006/54007)

Re:

Oconee Nuclear Station, Units 1, 2 and 3 We have reviewed your letter dated November 4, 1983, "Required Actions Based on Generic Implications of Salem ATWS Events."

Item 4.5.2 of Generic Letter 83-28 required that plants not currently designed to permit periodic on-line testing to justify not making modifications to permit such testing.

Alternatives to on-line testing proposed by licensees will be considered where special circumstances exist and where the objective of high reliability can be met in another way. Based on our review, we have concluded that the reactor trip system reliability at Oconee Nuclear Station is acceptable. The details of our review are contained in the enclosed Safety Evaluation.

Sincerely, B. J. Youngblood, Director Project Directorate 11-3 Division of Reactor Projects-I/Il
