Dear Dr. Murley:
This letter is written to inform you that we have completed certain commitments that we made in response to Generic Letter (GL) 90-06 (reference our letters AEP:NRC;1131 and
- 1131A, dated December 21, 1990 and April 16, 1991, respectively).
Generic Letter 90-06 requires, in part, that the valves in the control air system that operates the power-operated relief valves (PORVs) be included in the in-service testing (IST) program.
We took exception to this requirement and stated that "Plant procedures will be enhanced to provide further assurance that the control air system valves perform their required functions when the PORVs are stroked off both the normal and backup air supplies every 18 months during cold shutdown."
Hardware required to effectively perform this testing on the two PORVs that have backup air supplies (NRV-152 and -153) has now been installed, tested and released for unrestricted operation in both units.
Specifically, in addition to the PORV positive shutoff racks, test vents were added upstream of t'e normal control air supply check valves for the two LTOP pressurizer PORVs on each unit, to provide the capability to ensure that these valves seat effectively during stroking of the PORVs off their back-up air supplies.

Dr. T. E. Murley AEP:NRC:1131B The Cook Nuclear Plant Operations Department has revised its procedures (Procedures 1-and 2-OHP 4021.002.001, ) to perform this enhanced testing of the two LTOP pressurizer PORVs to stroke both off the normal and back-up air supplies independently during filling and venting of the RCS.
Our request for amendment to the Technical Specifications (reference our letter AEP:NRC:1131A) contains more stringent requirements than presently exist.
For example, the new technical specifications willrequire us to perform PORV operability testing in Mode 3, rather than during RCS filling and venting, as is currently the practice.
Also, the allowable outage time for a single LTOP channel will be decreased from 7 days to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
Once we receive the approved amendment, we will implement these more stringent requirements.
This letter is submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f) and, as such, an oath statement is enclosed.
Sincerely, Pg~pmf)
