Dear Ms. Adensam:
Re: Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Docket No. 50-410 The Niagara Mohawk letter from C. V. Mangan to E.
G. Adensam dated April 7, 1986 identified ten systems whose preoperational tests were planned to be deferred until after fuel load and forwarded pertinent information relative to each system.
A subsequent letter from C.
V. Mangan to E.
G.
Adensam dated May 7, 1986 requested schedular relief under 10 CFR 50.57(b) and also requested exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR Section 50.12(a) for portions of the Automatic Depressurization
- System, Containment Leakage Monitoring System, Offgas System and Containment Monitoring System.
The purpose of this letter is to explicitly identify those preoperational tests which we are planning to defer beyond fuel load, those which require exemptions, and those which do not require exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 50.12(a).
These
- systems, as discussed in previous correspondence and meetings on this subject, are listed below.
Responses to Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff requests from a May 12, 1986 Status Review meeting and Nuclear Regulatory Commission Project Manager's site meeting of June 3, 1986 have been included in this correspondence.

The requested exemptions for the Offgas System, the Containment Monitoring System, and the Reactor Coolant and ECCS Leak Detection System were provided in our May 7, 1986 letter.
- Further, an exemption request to defer the Design Basis Accident Recombiner Testing will be provided under separate cover.
Revised information is provided in Attachment 1 for Electrical Hydraulic Control System, and new information is provided for Post Accident Sampling System.
Niagara Mohawk is ready to meet with the cognizant Nuclear Regulatory Commission personnel to review this matter at your convenience.

Test No."
FSAR Section 14.2-42 Preop Test 34 System Post-Accident Sample System Schedul e" for Compl etion Six months after fuel load but prior to oper-ation above 5X of rated thermal power System Oescription As described in FSAR Sections 1.10 and 9.3.2, the PASS is designed to obtain representative liquid and gas samples from within the primary containment for radiological analysis in association with the possible consequences of a loss of coolant accident (LOCA).
The system consists of:
1) a piping station located in the reactor building; 2 ) a sampling station located in the radwaste sample room; 3) two control panels situated approximately 10 ft. from the sample station in the sample room; 4) assorted transport equipment; 5) a ventilation system; and 6) assorted interconnecting tubing.
Justification for Not Completin the Test Ouring fuel loading and prior to low power testing no radioactive gaseous effluents can be gener ated.
The operability of the Post-Accident Sample System ensures the system will be available for post-LOCA conditions.
The Post-Accident Sample System can only perform a function during a post-LOCA with degraded core conditions.
This condition is not physically possible until after initiation of operation above low power (5X of rated thermal power).
Basis for Concludin Acceptability Prior to initial power operation, the Post-Accident Sample System can perform no safety function, is not needed, and is not required.
As the test will be per formed prior to oper ation above low power (5X, of rated thermal power), the test schedule is acceptable.
Technical Specification Requirements and Effects There are no technical specifications applicable to this system.
Exemption Requests No exemption requests are required at this time, since there are no deviations from regulatory requirements or plant Technical Specifications.

(con'est No; FSAR Tabl e 14.2-44 Preop Test 23 System Electrical Hydraulic Control System Schedule for Completion Prior to opening of the main steam isolation val ves
System Description
As described in FSAR Sections 1.2.5.3, 7.7.1.5 and 10.2.2, the Electrical Hydraulic Control System is used to maintain and control normal power gener ation of the turbine generating system and to provide protection for the Nine Mile Point Unit 2 turbine during transient conditions.
The pressur e
regulator maintains control of the turbine, control of the turbine bypass valves to allow proper generator and reactor r esponse to system load-demand
- changes, while maintaining the nuclear system pressur e essentially constant.
The turbine generator speed-load controls can initiate rapid closur e of the turbine control valves (rapid opening of turbine bypass valves) to prevent turbine overspeed on loss of generator electric load.
Justification for Not Completin
=the. Test This system is nonsafety related and not required for safe operation of the plant - only for power generation.
Basis for Concludin Acceptability Technical Specifications require that the Electrical Hydraulic Control
- Systems, which control the bypass valves, turbine stop valves and control
- valves, are tested in accordance with Section 3/4.3.8.
This equipment is required for operational conditions 1 and 2.
The turbine overspeed protection specification is provided to ensure that turbine overspeed protection system instrumentation and turbine speed control valves are operable and will protect the turbine from excessive overspeed.
Therefore, provided that the system is tested prior to opening of the main steam isolation valves, the Unit will be in full conformance with the technical specifications.
Technical S ecification Requirements and Effects As indicated
- above, Technical Specification 3/4.2.8 describes the applicable requirements for Unit 2 compliance.
Exemption Requests No exemption requests are required at this time, since this is a nonsafety related
- system, and Unit 2 will be in conformance with the Technical Specifications.
