DPR-58 and DPR-74 Post-TMI Requirements (NUREG-0737)

Mr. Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.

C.

20555

Dear Mr. Denton:

The attachments to this letter provide our response to Mr. D.

G. Eisenhut's letter of October 31, 1980, which we received on November 6, 1980, concern-ing the implementation of the post-TMI requirements contained in NUREG-0737.

Our responses follow the same format of Enclosure 1 of NUREG-0737.

For those items of Enclosure 1 which are implemented under NUREG-0578 and are noted

'as "COMPLETE", no response is provided.

We have proceeded with the implementation of many of the post-TMI requirements based on the criteri'a of NUREG-0578.

In some instances a pro-posed revision to Regulatory Guide 1.97 was referenced for the design and qualification criteria of certain equipment.

However, NUREG-0737 now requires us to meet the provisions of its Appendix 8 for design and qualification of some of the same equipment.

Ne are told in the applicable items that this is to be considered a

new requirement.

We do not believe that the issuance of nevi requirements at this late date is compatible a priori with your imple-mentation schedules and with our established engineering practices.

Appendix 8

of NUREG-0737 represents a substantial change in the design and qualification of some equipment to the extent that it may impact on the completion of items already underway.

Where this is the case, it is pointed out in the attachments to this letter.

Even more, our assessment of the impact of the design and qualification criteria of Appendix 8 is still under review.

Any additional problem areas-will be noted i'n supplemental correspondence to this letter.

RESPONSE

TO iTB1 I'.A.l. 1 SHIFT TECHNICAL ADVISOR; The Shift Technical Advisor Training Program as described below is complete with dedicated personnel on shift as of January 1,

1981.

The Shift Technical Advisor (STA) Training Program was developed to provide the necessary training and background for both the accident assessment function and an operating experience assessment function.

The initial train-ing program for these functions consisted of 0he following subjects in addition to extensive systems training;

- Reactor Physics, Cnemistry and Materials

- Reactor Thermodynamics, Fluid iMechanics, and Heat Trans er

- Electrical Engineering including Reactor Control Theory All subjects were taught at the college level by a local university, NRC approved

vendors, and the on-site Training Department staff.

Only personnel with prior degrees in engineering or physical sciences are selected

and, as such, their prior training in mathematics was determined sufficient to meet the requirements of i4lr, Denton's October 30, 1979 letter.

To ensure the STAs familiarity with desion, function, arrange-

ment, and operation of plant systems as required by the October 30, 1979 letter, only applicants with prior power plant experience will be admitted into the STA program.

In addition, the extensive system training given in plant systems, including design and operation is consistent with the INPO reconmendations for systems training.

Transient and accident response training will be given through special lectures by the NSSS vendor and simulator training.

This training is con-sistent with the requirements of the Oc ober 30, 1979 letter.

Attachment I.A-1 shows a comparison of the content of the established D. C.

Cook Plant STA Training Program to the INPO guidelines contained in Appendix C of NUREG-0737.

All major areas of concern have been covered.

In some areas, the INPO'recommended contact hours (Section 6 of Appendix C) cannot be met due to time and resource cons raints.

However, we eel that the content of all areas of concern are adequately covered to meet the training qualifications as specified in the October 30, 1979 NRC letter.

The STA candidates will attend a simulator training program annually where they will participate in plant evolutions to gain experience in situa-tion assessment and the necessary actions to mitigate the consequences of an accident.

An STA Requalification Program is designed to maintain a

continuous'egree of knowledge and proficiency as required by ANS 3. 1 is estab-lished for the Donald C.

Cook Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2.

This program shall apply to all STA's, including STA's who perform such duties on an infrequent basis.

A site appointed Training Coordinator has been assigned to implement and administer this program.

A brief description of the requalification program is contained in Attachment I.A-2.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.A.1.3, SHIFT'MANNING:

1.

Limit Overtime-Plant Manager Standing Order PMS0.054 dated October 29, 1980 was issued limiting overtime for Reactor Operators, Senior Reactor Operators and Shift Technical Supervisors.

2.

Shift Staffing-Implemented as described in our November 7, 1980 letter (AEP:NRC:00450) in response to Eisenhut's letter of July 31, 1980 concerning interim criteria for shift staffing.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.A.3.1, UALIFICATIONS OF REACTOR OPERATORS:

Implemen ed as described in our September ll, 1980 letter (AEP:NRC:00395)

~

in response to Oenton's letter of March 28, 1980 concerning reactor operator qualifications program.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.C.1, SHORT-TERM ACCIDENT AND PROCEDURES RE'lIEM:

The Westinghouse Owners Group (MOG) of which Indiana 8 Michigan Electric Company

( IKMECo) is a member will submit by January 1, 1981, a detailed description of the program to comply with the requirements of Item I.C. l.

In addition, we have revised our natural circulation cooldown procedure to limit the cooldown rate to prevent the formation of bubbles in the reactor head area.

This revision is a result of our review of IE Circular No. 80-15.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.C. 5, FEEDBACK( OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE:

In accordance with our letter of June 20, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00419), which respondedto Eisenhut's May 7, 1980 letter concerning additional TMI-2 requirements, procedures for feedback of operating experience to plant staff have been reviewed.

Existing, in place plant procedures were found to ade-quately address all requirements for NRC reports and notices and Cook Plant Condition Reports as stated in Item I.C.5, "Procedures for Feedback of Operating Experience to Plant Staff".

A formal new procedure which meets the requirements stated in Item I.C.5 has been implemented at the Plant for the handling of non-NRC Notices, such as NSSS Vendor Hotic s, and IHPO Notices.

Consistent with tfie requirements for an 'Operating Experience Assess-ment'roup as outlined in Mr. Denton's October 30, 1979 letter to all operating nuclear plants, procedures for handling HRC, vendor and industry-related notices vill be modified to directly involve the

'STA in o,ice duty'n an immediate safety assessment function.

If it is found that the-notice contains information of significant importance that should not, wait for emphasis through the usual routing, this group wi 11 act promptly to take aporopriate action.

All NRC, vendors, indus.ry and internal Cook Plant Notices will be reviewed by the

'STA in of ice duty'or trend analysis.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.C.6 VERIFY CORRECT PERFORMANCE OF OPERATING ACTIVITIES This requirement, formally issued by NUREG-0737, has been reviewed for its impact on Cook Plant operating activities.

Me currently have in place an effective system of verifying the correct performance of operating activities, the essential elements of which are described below.

Conducting surveillance on the Reac.or Protection and Engineered Safe-guards System during plant operation requires Shift Supervisor or Operating Engineer approval prior to start.

Plant surveillance testing is in accordance with approved schedules and procedures.

Oata are reviewed by the Unit Supervisor, Operating Engineer or Shift Operating Engineer.

The daily mast r schedule for completion of required surveillance is reviewed by the Operating Engineer or Shift Operating Engineer to determine current status.

Clearance Permits to remove essential equipment from service are prepared by an Operating Engineer or by the Shift Operating Engineers.

To insure that the ControlRoom is aware of equipment status, the permits are sent to the Unit Supervisor who directs their implementation.

Return to service is in the reverse order of the above with the inal acceptance for system operation being made by the Operating Engineer or Shift Operating Engineer.

System lineup of the safety-related system requires independent verification of valve lineup after it has been out of service for maintenance or following surveillance testing.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM E.D.1",

CONTROL ROOM DESIGN REIEER An assessment of the requirements for implementation of this item will'e per formed when NUREG-0700 is issued and reviewed.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM I.D.2, PLANT SAFETY PARAMETER DISPLAY CONSOLE:

Me are in the process of implementing the Mestinghouse designed Plant Safety Status Display (PSSD) system in the control rooms of the Cook Nuclear Plant.

On May 27, 1980, AEPSC representatives met with Messrs.

Hanauer, Mattson and other NRC staff members and presented to them a description of ihe PSSD to be installed in Cook Plant.

This equipment has been ordered since May 9, 1980 and we are pro-ceeding anead with the work required to complete its'nstallation and operation.

The PSSD is further described in Hestinghouse's submittal of klCAP-9725 to the NRC dated June 13, 1980 (NS-TMA-2261).

This system is an integral part of'the Westing-house Technical Support Center Complex and is designed with the application of Human Engineering principles.

RESPONSE

This program will be initiated around April 1, 1981 and com-pleted-by October 1, 1981 in accordance with the requirements of this item.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.O.l, PERFORMANCE'TESTING OF RELIEF ANO SAFETY VALVES NUREG-0578 Item 2.1. 2:

As a participating member of the EPRI PWR Safety and Relief 'lalve Test

Program, Indiana 8 Michigan Electric Company is complying with !the requirements of HUREG-0578, I'tern 2.1.2.

By letter dated Oecember 15,

1980, R.

C.

Youngdahl of Consumers Power Company has =provided the current partici-pating utility positions with regard to the clarifications of item II.O.1 of HUREG-0737.

RESPONSE

TO ITEN II.O.3 OIRECT INOICATION OF RELIEF AHO SAFETY 'IAL'lE POSITION:

This item has been implemented, in the Cook Plant and our compliance is documented in the HRC Safety Evaluation Report issued on March 20, 1980.

The human fac.ors analysis recommended in clarification item 6 will be included in the detailed control room design review 'to be performed in accordance with our response to item I.O.1 of NUREG-0737.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.E.l.l. AUXILIARY FEEDWATER SYSTEM EVALUATION:

The information required by this item concerning the AFW system flow design basis nas been submitted by our letter dated November 3, 1980 (AEP:HRC:00300C).

The NRC has closed this item with the issuance of the October 6, 1980 Safety Evaluation Repor" of the Cook Plant's AF!3 system reliability.

RESPONSE

TO ITEiM II.E.1.2. AUXILIARY FEEOWATER SYSTEM AUTOMATIC INITIATION ANO FLO!A I!VOICATION:

Part 1:

The APX system is automatically started at the Cook Plant and the initiation signals and circuits meet safety grade requirements.

Part 2:

The flow indication.system to be used at D.

C.

Cook Plant will be one auxiliary feedwater flow rate indicator and one narrow range steam generator level indicator for each steam generator Installation of environmentally qualified auxiliary feedwater flow rate transmitters will be compatible with the NUREG-0737 implementation schedu'le.

The information previously submitted for part 1 of this item and our letter of Decem6er 10, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00307EJ in response to S.

A. Yarga's letter of October 31, 1980 shows compliance with the specified requirem nts of part 2 of this i,tern.

Also, our submit.al of the Category A Lessons Learned Technical Specifications by letter dated December 10, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00449) is consistent with the above implementation of AFM flow indication.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.E.4.2 CONTAINMENT ISOLATION DEPENDABILITY:

D.

C.

Cook Plant is already in compliance with HRC positions 1 through 4

as documented in the HRC March 20, 1980 SER.

The Cook Plant design basis for the minimum pressure setpoint of con-tainment isolation is in compliance with NRC position 5.

For D.

C.

Cook Plant each unit has two levels of containment isolation identified as Phase A and Phase B.. Phase A isolation closes all lines penetrating the containment except essential lines sucn as Safety Injection and Containment Spray which are not isolated, and component cooling water to the reac or pumps and service water to the ventilation units which isolates on Phase B.

Phase A isolation is initiated by containment pressure high (1.1 psig),

any safety injection signal and manually.

The D. C.

Cook Plant Technical Specification for the

'high limit of containment internal pressure has as its Limiting Condition of Operation (LCO), +0.3 psig.

Therefore, the differential between the LCO and the Phase A isolation setpoints from containment pressure high (0.8 psig) is within the requirements of clarification item (6) for a margin of 1 psi.

Thus, the 1.1 psig setpoint is the minimum compatible with normal operat-ina conditions and no further action is required.

The requirements contained in NRC positions 6 and 7 have already been-implemented as the Cook Plant.

These two positions have been addressed as indicated in Attachment II.E-l.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F. I ATTACHMENT 1 NOBLE GAS MONITOR:

The upgraded radiation monitoring system at D. C.

Cook Plant is being designed to provide the information required by both Attachments 1 and 3 of Item II.F. 1.

This system which is on order and being manufactured has been purchased in accordance with your earlier requirements of HUREG-0578, prior to issuance of NUREG-0737, based on the ccnmitment in our October 24, 1979 letter (AEP:NRC:00253).

The design of the system to meet the criteria specified in Attachments 1 and 3 is interrelated to the extent that separation of the documentation would be extremely dif,icuIt..

Schedule.relief..of the January.

1, 1981 date is therefore requested to provide the documentation for Attachment 1

on the same schedule as that required by Attachment 3, i.e.

by July '1, 1981 rather than January 1, 1981.

The portions of our upgraded radiation-monitoring system for compliance with this item will be installed by January 1,

1982 con-sistent with the requirements of Attachment 1.

The uograded radiation monitoring system at Cook Plant will meet the requirements of the NRC positions of Attachment 1 when reviewed in total but not on an individual monitor bases.

The system will provide the ranges for the release path as stipulated by Table II.F,1-1 under "Design 8asis Minimum Range".

However, the system normal operating range monitors are not capable of this extended range nor are the post-accident monitors capable of the ALARA*range"'equi'rements.'e wish to point out that clarification 4 regarding ALARA range requirements on the post-accident monitors conflicts with the requirements of clarification 1 and Table II.F.l-l.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F. 1 ATTACHMENT 2, SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS OF PLANT EFFLUENTS:

The upgraded radiation monitoring system at 0.

C.

Cook Plant is being designed to provide information as required by Attachment 2.

The proposed Hi range noble gas. monitors will be able to sample particulates and radioiodines by absorpiton on a filter, followed by an onsite laboratory analysis.

The absorption of radio-iodines will be done on a Silver Zeolite filter.

Me believe that the technology currently available is limited to low temperature gases with low moisture content.

Consequently,,steam vents are not monitored for Iodine and particulates at the Cook Plant.

The 0, C.

Cook Plant will be equipped with facilities to analyze these filters consistent with clarifications 1 and 2.

The equipment. for implementation of this requirement is on order and is scheduled for delivery in late 1981.

Therefore, the first available date for installation is the refueling outages in 1982.

As such, an extension is re-quested beyond the implementation date of January 1,

1982 until these r fueling outages.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F.1 ATtTACHi4lENT 3 CONTAINMENT HIGH RANGE RADIATION i(ONITOR:

As s.ated in the above response to Item II.F.1, Attachment 1, the radia-tion monitoring system upgrade for D.

C.

Cook Plant is being designed to provide the required information of both this attachment and Attachment 1.

However, since Attachment 3 stipulates significant changes from previous documents, a

detailed review of the impact of these changes cannot be provided in this submittal.

Specifically, the impact of Appendix 8 to NUREG-0737 regarding Design and guaIification of Equipment is still under review.

If deviation of this Attachment's positions or clarifications are necessary, a detailed explanation of and justification for, the deviation will be provided by July 1,. 1981, along with the documentation required for final review.

This System which is on order and being manufactured has been purchased in accordance with your earlier requirements of HUREG-0578, prior to issuance of NUREG-0737.

The portions of our upgraded radiation monitoring system for ccmpliance with this item will be installed by January 1,

1982 consistent with the requirements of Attachment 3.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F.I ATTACHMENT 4

- CONTAINMENT PRESSURE MONITOR:

This item has been implemented as per our letters of October 24, 1979 (AEP:NRC:00253),

and January 18, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00334).

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F.I, ATTACHMENT 5, CONTAINMEiVT MATER LE'/EL:

The containment water level monitoring system which was purchased for Cook Plant will be implemented 1n accol'dallce with our letters of October 24, 1979 (AEP:NRC:00253) and January 18, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00334).

The required in-stallation and documentation will be completed by January I, 1982.

RESPONSE

TO ITEii II.F.I ATTACHMEiVT 6 CONTAINMENT HYOROGEiV MOiVITOR:

Oesign modi,ications and monitoring equipment that will satisfy this requirement will be installed and operational by January I, 1982.

The required documentation will be submitted by January I, 1982.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.F.2 INSTRUMEiVTATION FOR OETECTION OF IiVAOEOUATE CORE COOLIiVG:

As stated in our previous submit.als addressing Item 2.1.3.b of NUREG-0578, letters dated January 18, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00334), Attachment 6 and March 10, 1980 (AEP:NRC:003348),

0.

C.

Cook Plant is implementing an inadequate core cooling (ICC) system.

The system is to be composed of reactor water level indication supplied by Mestinghouse Electric Corp.

supplemented as necessary by the equipment available to monitor margin to saturation of the reactor coolant system.

The position, clarification, at.achments and appendices now imposed by this item represent a major significant change to those previously required by other documents.

Mestinghouse.Electric Corp. is presently preparing Topical Reports to.respond to the documentation requirements of this item.

A tentative schedule for submittal of these reports by Mestinghouse to the iVRC is January I, 1981.

A detailed review by AEPSC cannot be performed by the January I, 1981 documentation deadline for this item.

Relief to April I, 1981 is therefore requested from the documentation required date of January I, 1981 to allow for detailed AEPSC review of these Mestinghouse reports.

The reactor water level system will be installed consistent with the implementation schedule of this i 'CBll ~

Our existing core exit thermocouple system does not meet the requirements of Attachment I to Item II.F.2.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.K.2.13, THERMAL'ECHANICALREPORT --- EFFECT OF HIGH-PRESSURE INJECTION QN VESSEL INTEGRITY FOR SMALL-BREAK LOSS-OF-COOLANT ACCIDENT NITH NO AUXILIARY FEEDWATER:

RESPONSE

TQ ITEM II.K.2.17 POTEiNTIAL FOR VOIDING IN THE REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEMS DURING TRANS IEiVTS:

The WOG is currently addressing the potential for void formation in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) during natural circulation cooldown conditions, as described in 'ilestinghouse letter NS-TMA-2298 (T. M. Anderson, N. to P.S.

Check, iVRC).

A report describing the results of this effort will be provided to the NRC before January 1,

1982.

RESPONSE

TQ ITEM II.K.2.19 SE UENTIAL AUXILIARY FEEDMATER FLOW ANALYSIS:

The transient analysis

code, LOFTRAN, and the present small break evaluations analysis
code, MFLASH, have both undergone benchmarking against plant information or experimental test facilities.

These codes under appropriate conditions have also been compared with each other The MOG will provide on a schedule consistent with requirement of item II.K.2.19 a report addressing the benchmarking of these codes.

The

~AGOG is in tfie process of developing a report to address the iVRC concerns *of Item II.K.3.2.

How ver, due to the time-consuming process of data gathering, breakdown, and evaluation, this report is scheduled for'submittal to the NRC on March 1, 1981.

As required by the NRC, this report will be used to support a decision on the necessity of incorporating an automatic PORV isolation system as specified in Item II.K.3.1.

RESPONSE

TO ITPil II.K.3.5 AUTOMATIC TRIP OF REACTOR COOLANT PUMP OURING LOSS OF COOLANT ACCIOENT:

The MOG resolution of this issue has been to perform analyses using the riestinghouse small break evaluation model '(vlFLASH) to show that ample time is available for the operator to trip the reactor coolant pumps following cer-tain size small breaks, see HCAP-9584.

Tnis is in accordance with our letter of June 20, 1980 (AEP:NRC:00419) which responded to Mr. Eisenhut's May 7, 1980 letter concerning additional TMI-2 requirements.

In addition the Owners Group is supporting a best estimate s udy using the NOTRUMP computer code to demonstrate that tripping the reactor coolant pump at the worst trip time, after a small break will lead to acceptable results.

For both of these analysis efforts, the HOG is performing blind post-test predictions of loft experiment L3-6.

The input data and model to be used with ')FLASH on test L3-6 has been submitted to the staff on 12/1/80 (NS-TMA-2348),

the information to be used with NOTRUMP on test L3-6 will be submitted prior to performance of the test as stated in letter OG-45 dated 12/3/80.

The Loft prediction from both models will be submitted to the staff on February 15, 1981 given that the test is performed on schedule.

The best estimate study is scheduled for completion by April 1, 1981.

Sased on these

studies, the

~rlOG believes that resolution of this issue will be achieved wi.hout any design modifications.

In the event that this is not the case, a schedule will be provided for potential modifications.

RESPONSE

TO ITEMS II.K.3.9 PIO CONTROLLERS II.K.3.10 PROPOSEO ANTICIPATORY TRIP MOOIFICATIONSi II.K.3.12 ANTICIPATORY TRIP ON TURSINE TRIP:

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.K.3.17, EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM OUTAGES:

The following information provides our report on ECC system outages committed to in our letter of June 20, 1980 QEP:NRC:00419) in response to this item.

Shown in the attached tables are outage times for Centrifugal Charging, Residual Heat Removal, Safety Injection, Containment Spray and the Emergency Oiesel Generator Systems while the reactor was in iXodes 1, 2, 3 or 4.

Separate listings are given for Units 1 and 2 s arting from initial critic-ality, 1/18/75 and 3/10/78 nespectively, as shown in Tables II.K.3-1 and'I.K.3-2 which are attached.

In some instances the exact length of time a component was out of service could not be determined.

For these cases it was assumed that it was out half of the Technical Specifications maximum allowable time.

These cases are marked with an asterisk.

Me believe that Technical Specifications for the ECC systems in Cook Plant are sufficiently restrictive to keep control of their availabil,ity.

No further actions are required for this item.

RESPONSE

TO ITEM II.K.3.25 EFFECT 'F LOSS OF AC PO!IER ON RCP SEALS:

The 0.

C.

Cook Plant is not susceptible to seal failure upon loss of off-site power.

The ',oss of of -site power results in a trip of the Reactor Coolant

Pumps, but the Centrifugal Cnarging Pumos (CCP's) continue to supply seal injec-tion to the RCP's upon loss of off-site power.

The CCP's are powered from the Emergency Oiesel Generators.

charcoal, will also accept the Silver Zeolite car ridge.

The detector is con-nected to single channel analyzer calibrated to 365 KeY.

Thre Eoerline Model PING-lA airborne particulate,

radiogas, and radioiodine monitor.

Radioiodine monitor, usually used uith TEDA impregnated charcoal, will also accept the Silver Zeolite cartridge.

The detector is a stabilized NaI detector connected to a two channel analyzer calibrated to 365 KeV with automatic Xe subtraction from the second channel.

All cart-mounted iodine detectors are in 3 inch lead shields.

In addition, there are available for use throughout the plant ten Eberline RAS-1 regulated air samplers, which accept either TEDA impregnated charcoal or Silver Zeolite cartridges.

In addition to the equipment normally available in the regular radio-chemistry counting facility, the following analysis equipment is available for analysis of the Silver Zeolite cartridges that might be used in an emergency:

A 4" x 4" NaI crystal connected to a Packard 1024 channel MCA is located in the low background counting facility.

-b.

In the basement assembly area there is a cartridge purge unit con-sisting of a T-size bottIe of dry nitrogen, regulator, cartridge

holder, and associated piping to permit purging of Silver Zeolite or charcoal cartridges with dry nitrogen.

c.

Located in the basement assembly area is an Eberline MS-2 single channel

analyzer, calibrated to 365 Ke'i, connected to a 2" x 2" NaI crystal in a 2i-" lead shield designed for counting in TEDA-charcoal or Silver Zeolite cartridges.

ATTACHMENT II. E-1 Information for implementating positions 6 and 7 of item II.E.4.2 of NUREG-0737 in Cook Plant.

Our response to guestions 022.4 and 022.13 contained in Appendix g, Amendments 77 and 78 to the FSAR, submitted in July and October 1977 respectively.

This provided our response to Branch Technical Position CSB 6-4 including the impact on ECCS performance and an evaluation of the radiological consequences of a design basis accident during purge operation.

The response to guestion 022.4 and 022.13 apply to both Units of the Cook Plant.

2.

Our submittal of Oecember 29, 1977 on Unit 2 provided the procedure for the valve operability test.

The scope of this tes. procedure was reviewed with members of your staff prior to our submittal.

This applies to both Units 1

and 2 of the Cook Nuclear Plant.

3.

Our submittal of January 13, 1978 on Unit 2 provided the results of the in-situ purge valve ooerability tes performed on January 8, 1978.

This test was a pre-requisite for allowina unrestricted purging of the containment in accordance with our response to Containment Systems Branch guestion 022.4 of our FSAR.

The test results demonstrated that the purge valves are capable of closing against the dynamic forces of a design basis loss-of-coolant accident.

These results were submitted to the Commission in support of our Technical Specification change re-quest on Unit 2 to allow unrestricted purging of the containment.

This test, its results and the various supporting analyses we have performed address the concerns expressed in Mr, Eisenhut's letter of September 27, 1979 and no further action is required.

his apolies to both Units 1 and 2 of the Cook Plant.

Our submittal of February 3, 1978 on Unit 2 provided supplemental in-

,ormation requested by your s.aff concerning the results of the valve operability test in support of our Technical Soecification change request.

This applies to both Units 1

and 2 of the Cook,Plant.

5.

Our submittal of April 27, 1978 on Unit 2 supplied analyses that demonstrate the operability of the lower compartment ourge system based on the test already performed.

The analysis provided shows that although lower compartment pressures might be higher than the test pressure, the pressures expected at the inboard containment isolation valves in the lower compartment purge and vent lines would be less than the pressure which existed during the valve operability test.

This is achieved by installing debris screens in the lower compartment purge systems which provide a high flow resistance.

This applies to both Units 1 and 2 of the Cook Plant.

6.

Our submittal of August ll, 1978 (AEP:NRC:00069) on Unit 2 provided additional information requested by your staff and applies to both Units of the Cook Plant.

1979 (AEP:NRC:00114) on Units 1

and 2

provide our response to Mr. Schwencer's November 28, 1978 letter.

Allof the requests for additional information and justi,ication of unlimited purging were provided.

Additionally, we provided our review of the issue of overriding of safety actuation signals and the procedural steps taken to assure that operation of a bypass will not affect safety functions.

9.

Cur meeting with the NRC staff on May 31, 1979 to discuss the statu of review of the containment purge and related subjects.

The NRC staff informed us that we had a favorable writeoff as far as valve operability was concerned,

However, we were told that the NRC staff required urther action from AEP on the issue of manual override of safety actuation signals.

10.

Our submittal of June 8, 19?9 (AEP:NRC:00114A),

applicable to Units 1

and 2 provided a descriptions of the modifications made to the reset/

block circuits and associated procedural changes required to meet the Commission's position as committed to at the May 31, 1979 meeting.

provided the additional information on he subject of unrestricted purging that was requested at the May 31, 1979 meeting.

12.

Our submittal of November 8, 19?9 (AEP:NRC:00295) provided our response to Mr.

D. Eisenhut's letter of September 27, 19?9 which dealt with con-tainment purging and venting during normal operation.

This submittal also provided the completion of our review of overriding of safety actuation signals.

13.

Gur submittal of Oecember 5, 1979 (AEP:NRC:00295A) provided further-information requested by the NRC staff concerning the monitoring of containment radiation in the context of the purge system operation.
