one path to safe shutdown using fully qualified equipment, or has submitted a justification for continued safe operation (JCO) pending full qualification of any equipment not fully qualified; and (c) all other equipment within the scope of 50.49 is either fully qualified or a JCO has been submitted pending full qualification.
Reference (1) also requested that the certifica-tions described in (a),(b),
and (c) above shoul'd specifically address all IE Bulletins and Information Notices that identify EQ problems, to the extent that such bulletins and notices are relevant to the licensee's facility.
