10 CFR 50.55a(g)(4)(ii) requires that inservice tests to verify operational readiness of valves whose function is required for safety shall comply with the applicable Section XI edition of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.
Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Article IWV-3400 requires valve exercising tests to be performed on active Category A valves as defined in IWV-2000.

The eight containment isolation valves (SV 2412 A&B, SV 2413 A&B, SV 2414 A&B, SV 2415 A&B) for the Hydrogen Monitoring System are active Category A valves.
Contrary to the above, the eight containment isolation valves for the Hydrogen Monitoring System neither had been tested nor had position indicator verifications performed as required by the Code since construction of the system in 1984.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of the Notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each item of noncompliance:
(1) corrective action* taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
