Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
We offer the following response to the apparent item of noncompliance noted in the referenced Inspection Report.
" Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established, implemented and maintained for the activities recommended in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November
)
1972, which includes Administrative Instructions.
d Contrary to the above, at numerous times during the period January-October 1977, maintenance activities were performed on safety-related equipment without approved written procedures for (1) the removal of components from service, (2) the conduct of maintenance actions and (3) the restoration of components to service as required by Administrative Instruction (AI) No. 400, Plant Operating Quality Assurance Manual Control Document and AI 600, Conduct of Maintenance."
In none of the cases cited was there any evidence of actual deleterious effect on operability of equipment or systems. Subsequent operation and surveillance indicates that no further disposition is required for the work in question.
(1) Instructions have been issued to appropriate responsible supervision which reiterate the requirement for either approved procedure to adequately cover removal from service, or for an Equipment Clearance Order to be reviewed by the Plant Review Committee and approved by the Nuclear Plant Manager prior to removal of safety-related equip-ment from service. Compliance has been achieved as of this date.
