Dear Mr. Taylor:

Subj ect: Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (PVNGS)

Business Plan File: 90-056-026 In your March 16, 1990 letter (Peference 1), which transmitted the Diagnost3.c Evaluation Team Report (DER) for Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (PVNGS),

ou requested that within sixty (60) days Arizona Public Service (APS) provide your office with the summary of an integrated action plan resulting from its review of the DER. On April 11, 1990, NRC Region V and, APS senior managers discussed APS'esponse to the DER and its relationship to the PVNGS Business Plan being developed by the company. Your letter dated April 16, 1990 (Reference

2) revised your request for an integrated action plan and requested instead that APS submit the initial version of the PVNGS Business Plan by the end of July.

It also requested that, when submitting the Business Plan, APS indicate in broad outline how the plan addresses the DER observations. In accordance with your request, we have enclosed a copy of the initial version of the PVNGS Business Plan, dated July 1990 (Attachment 1). In-subsequent discussions with APS, NRC Region V indicated a matrix correlating management observations in the cover letter and Section 2 of Reference 1 with the Business Plan would be of assistance. Accordingly, Attachment 2 provides such a matrix.

Mr. James M. Taylor 161-03372-OIH/JiG Executive Director for Operations July 31, 1990 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 The Business Plan consists of three tiers:

'(1) A five-year plan that presents the PVNGS mission, goals, strategies, and five-year objectives.

(2) A one-year plan that presents a one-year objective for each five-year objective. This plan also includes the initials of specific management personnel assigned and responsible for achieving the goals and one-year objectives.

(3) Detailed task plans, that, identify specific tasks to achieve one-year objectives. The task, plans also identify responsibility for discrete tasks.

This submittal includes the first- and second-tier documents in full and two draft examples of the third-tier, (l) the Motor Operated Valves (MOV) program and (2) Maintenance Improvement Program. Comprehensive, third-tier task plans will be completed over the balance of this year. As we complete this process, we anticipate refinements to the first- and.second-tier documents. The Business Plan al'so reflects the results of a management review of ongoing PVNGS improvement programs and initiatives referenced in the DER. When complete, the Business Plan will integrate and prioritize ongoing and future PVNGS programs and initiatives down to the level of specific implementing tasks.

and responsibilities will follow the format of the third-tier examples Associated'chedules provided.

The completed Business Plan will be a living document, reviewed and revised at least annually. The .annual objectives will be statused quarterly", so the plan will apprise management of progress and areas requiring additional .attention.

The plan will also guide organizations and employees in carrying out the PVNGS mission.

Some of t'e goals, strategies, objectives and tasks identified in the Business Plan are directly related to NRC requirements or APS commitments to NRC; others are outside the normal purview of the NRC. Ordinarily, APS would not- submit to the NRC a document addressing matters not of regulatory concern. However, APS is submitting this initial version to show how the Business Pl'an,addresses the DER's management observations. As indicated above, Attachment 2 to this letter is a matrix that cross-references management observations from the cover letter and Section 2 of Reference l with the PVNGS Business Plan.

Mr. James M. Taylor 161-03372M)Q'1/Ze Executive Director for Operations July 31, 1990 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 3 We understand that NRC has assigned its Region V office the responsibility for closing DER observations. APS does not plan to use the Business Plan as the means of communicating its detailed actions to NRC on all matters identified in the DER. At PVNGS, APS will maintain files documenting the results of its review of the DER and associated implementing actions. The files will be available for NRC review. In addition, APS intends to use periodic management meetings, with the NRC as opportunities to update progress on DER-rel'ated management issues.

If you have any questions, please call me or William F. Conway (602-250-3900).

Sincerely,

0. M. DeMichele ODM/JNB/j le Attachments cc: J. R. Martin S. R. Peterson O'. M. Trammell D. H. Coe AD C. Gehr A. H. Gutterman
