RELAXATION OF STAFF POSITION IN GENERIC LETTER 83-28, ITEM 2.2, PART 2, "VENDOR INTERFACE FOR SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENTS" U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attn: Document Control Desk Washington, D.C. 20555 Attn: T. E. Murley July 9, 1990

Dear Dr. Murley:

This letter is being submitted in accordance with Generic Letter (GL) 90-03 and GL 90-03 Supplement 1. These letters detailed the relaxed staff position on requirements for vendor interface for safety-related'omponents as a result of the anticipated transient without scram (ATWS) incident at Salem. The original, more restrictive, requirements were detailed in Generic Letter 83-28 Item 2.2.

To meet the requirements of GL 83-28 Section 2.2 we committed to the following in letter AEP:NRC:0838B (March 30, 1984):

"To ensure that all VTD's ...are received, the VDCS [since.

re-named VICS] contains provisions for a periodic contact with each safety-related vendor. Over any given twelve (12) month period, each vendor will be sent a form letter, ... with an attachment, listing the documents received from the vendor during the previous twelve (12) month period. If this listing is correct, the vendor will be requested to sign and return the document. If documents are missing, the vendor will be required to so inform AEP and provide copies of all missing documents. These VTD'S, upon receipt, will be processed through the VDCS."

We discussed this process in letters AEP:NRC:0838R (December 31, 1985) and AEP:NRC:0838T (June 16, 1986); letter AEP:NRC:0838U (December 31, 1986) was our notification to the NRC that we considered this GL item closed.

Dr. T. E. Murley AEP:NRC:0838AH To meet the new requirements we will continue to contact our safety-related vendors on an annual basis, as described in the above excerpt from our original commitment. The only difference will be in the way we internally define a safety-related vendor.

In the past we took a conservative approach with our vendor contact program and contacted every vendor who either sent us a technical document during the year or is listed, or was ever listed, as being qualified to supply the Cook Nuclear Plant with safety-related equipment. The latter group included a large number of vendors who never supplied safety-related equipment for the Cook Nuclear Plant.

The large volume of transmittals and responses drew attention away from those vendors whose equipment was most vital to the safe operation of the plant.

In response to the relaxed requirements, we will contact only those vendors who have supplied us with safety-related equipment that is presently installed in the Cook Nuclear Plant. Enclosed with each letter will be a list of the supplied equipment, with as much data as possible to help the vendors identify the proper operation and maintenance manuals for the equipment. We will then request a list of any updates to the manuals or service advisories for the equipment that were sent out during the year.

We believe that the program here described goes well beyond the requirements of Generic Letter 90-03 and its supplement.

This letter has been prepared following Corporate procedures which incorporate a reasonable set of controls to ensure its accuracy and completeness prior to signature by the undersigned.

Very truly yours, M. P. lex h Vice President cc: D. H. Williams, Jr.
