Dear Mr. Allen:
Thank you for your response we received on November 18, 1996, to our Notice of
Violation (NOV) issued on October 18, 1996, concerning activities conducted at
the Surry Power Station.
We have evaluated your response and found that it
meets the requirements of 10 CFR 2.201.
In your response, you brought to our
attention a discrepancy in our letter concerning the occurrence of an
unmonitored ground level release.
We agree that the ventilation vent system
is a monitored release path. Since the ventilation vent system was in
operation for the entire event. there was no unmonitored release. Thank you
for making this clarification.
We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-280/95-20 AND 50-281/95-20
Dear Mr. Allen:
Thank you for your response we received on Novemb
18, 1996, to our Notice of
Violation issued on October 18, 1996, concernin activities conducted at the
Surry Power Station.
We have evaluated your r ponse and found that it meets
the requirements of 10 CFR 2.201.
Your resp se disagreed with the statement
in the NOV that an unmonitored ground-level elease occurred as a result of
the simultaneous vent paths you establish . We maintain that a ground level
release occurred via the vent vent syst . We agree with your statement that
the vent vent system is a monitored re ase path and that as long as the
entire release from the PRT was dire ed to the vent vent system the release
was monitored.
However, with the
ntainment open to atmosphere and the
absence of a poly hose directing
e discharge from 1-RC-ICV-5025 directly to
the vent vent system, a potenti
existed for an unmonitored release.
We
therefore can not definitivel state whether the release was monitored or
unmonitored.
