Item 2.2.2 and 2.1 (part 2) - Incomplete Applicant needs to describe revisions to his vendor interface, program to make it address all the concerns of'Item 2.2.2.

Item 4.5.3 - Inc'omplete Applicant needs to submit information showing that their current intervals will result in high reactor, trip system availability Qhen considering the concerns expressed in sub-items 4.5.3.1 to 4;5.3.5.

Proposed Technical Specification changes resulting from this review shall be submitted for"staff review.

The staff finds that modifications are not required.to permit nn-Tine testing of the backup scram valv'es.

However, the staff concludes that'testing of'he backup scram valves (including initiating circuitry) at a refuHing. outage frequency, in lieu of on-line testing, is appropriate and should be included=---

in the technical specifica ion surveillance requirements.

The licensee needs. to address this conclusion.
