Docket No. 50-237 LSOS-81-12-01 6 Mr. L. Del George

Dear Mr. Del George:

December 4,, 1981

SUBJECT:

.SEP REDIRECTION AND TOPIC COMPLETION SCHEDULES -

DRESDEN 2 On November 3, 1980 a meeting was held between representatives of the SEP Owners Group and Dairyland Power and NRC senior management, including the Executive Director for Operations. At that meeting, NRC management expressed some concern over progress with the SEP, and stated that it was considering assigning its resources towards the completion of one lead SEP plant. The NRC reiterated its committment to complete the SEP review as soon as practicable using information presently on the utilities dockets.o The owners subsequently proposed to assume more of the SEP topic review responsibility which would result iQ completing their review of 60% of the SEP topics by June 30, 1981.

The owners proposed this approach in lieu of the NRC's lead plant approach.

On January 14, 1981 the staff approved the owners group "lead topic" approach for a 90-day trial period' after which the staff would evaluate the quality and progress of the licensee's topic reviews.

Due to the limited number of topic assessments received ~Y the staff during the 90-day period, the staff decided to extend the trd_a]

period until June 30, 1981.

Our letter dated July 7, 1981, indicated our c'[ntinued concern*regarding progress of the redirected SEP program.

Our concern was based on the number of licensee topic assessments received versus that which was com-5c,o'f mitted to be submitted by June 30, 1981. and the quality of those topic s

assessments.

In that letter we stated that only one half of the assess-1~

ments received by June 15, 1981 were useful due to their poor quality and

., (*/f,J that an insufficient number of topic assessments had been received to

~"' ~

0 judge the overall success of SEP redirection. Therefore, we requested a

~~n*

meeting with licensee management to assure that the owners were providing sufficient resources to support SEP redirection and to assure that licen-C)ffCo~"°'

see topic safety analysis reports (SARs) would be completed according to proposed schedules.

At the meeting the staff requested that each licensee provide their schedules, if different from the staff'.s propose.W schedules, for the completion and submittal of the remaining SEP topics SARs for their faciHties.

-.J Your letter dated August 14, 1981, provided your revised schedules.

How-ever, as of November 13, 1981, we again havm received only 13 of the 25 SARs that you had scheduled to be submitted to the NRC and these were submi~te~ behind schedule.

  • Enclosure 1 1s a graph (from NUREG-0485, SEP Status Sununary Report) of your act~al submittals by month and your scheduled submittals. Enclosure 2 is the sim1lar graph for all SEP licensees.

As shown by these enclosures, significant delays are occurring and a substantial effort on your part is required to minimize further delay. Based on your perfonnance in meeting schedules, we cannot assume that the remaining topic SARs will be completed and submitte4 as promised. This continued poor predictability and respon-siveness raises questions regarding the schedule for completion of the SEP.

We are therefore request.fog that Commonwealth Edison Company senior manage-ment attend ~meeting with other SEP licensee and NRC senior management planned for December 17, 1981.

At that meeting we hope to review the perfor-mance, program. schedules and major milestones for completion of the Integrated Plant Safety A,ssessment for each of the SEP plants.

DRESDEN 2 By letter dated July 7, 1981, the staff indicated a concern regarding the success of the redirected SEP program. Our concern was based on the quantity of licensee topic assessments received versus that which was promised by June 30, 1981, and the quality of those topic assessments.

In that letter we requested a meeting with licensee management to assure that the owners are providing sufficient resources to support SEP redirection and to assure that 1 icensee topic safety analysis reports (SARs) would be completed according to proposed.schedules. At that meeting the staff requested that each licensee provide their schedules, 1f different from the staff's proposed schedules, for the completion and submittal of the remaining SEP topic SARs for their fac111t1es.

Your letter dated August 14, 1981, provided your schedules. However, as of November 13, 1981, we have received only 13 of the 25 SARs scheduled.

In addition, the 13 received to date were submitted over 2 weeks beyond the scheduled date. Enclosure l is a graph (from NUREG-0485, SEP Status Summary Report) of your actual subm1ttals by month and your scheduled su~~ittals. Enclosure 2 is the similar graph for all SEP licensees.

As shown by these enclosures, significant delays are occurring and a substantial effort on your part is required to minimize furttler delay.

Based on your perfonnance in meeting schedules, we cannot assume tt,at the remaining topic SARs will be completed &nd subm.1tted as promfaed.

\\\\\\

Therefore, we are requesting that your senior management attend a meeting with other SEP licensee senior management and NRC senior management planned for Qecember 17, 1981, at which the performance, program schedules and major m11e-s~tones to completion of the Integrated Plant Safety Assessment for each of the s~, plants will be discussed.
