NPF-4 Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Permit No. CPPR-78
Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
We have reviewed your letter of Mrrch 14, 1980, in reference to the inspection conducted at North Anna Power Station on February 11-15, 1980, and reported in IE Inspection Report Nos. 50-338/80-05 and 50-338/80-04.
Our response to the specific infraction is attached.
We have determined that no proprietary information is contained in the reports.
Accordingly, the Virginia Electric and Power Company has no objection to these inspection reports being made a matter of public disclosure.
Very truly yours, C.
. Stallings Vice President-Power Supply and Production Operations Attachment cc:

Attachment:
Page 1 of 1 Response to Notice of Violation Items Reported in IE Inspection Report 50-338/80-05 NRC Comment As required by Technical Specification 6.10.1.d, records of surveillance activities required by Technical Specifications shall be retained for five years.
Further, Technical Specification 4.1.1.2 requires that an overall reactivity balance shall be compared to predicted values every 31 effective full power days.
Contrary to the above, the records of Procedure 1-PT-11, " Core Reactivi-ity Balance", performed in the period June 1978 to September 1979 showed a complete lack of correlation between the dates and core exposures entered on the data sheets.
Other information available at the station and from station personnel provide confidence that equivalent surveillances were per-formed at the required frequency and wi:h acceptable results.
This is a deficiency.
Response
The above deficiency is correct ac stated.
Specifically, pursuant to Section 2.201 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice" Part 2, title 10, Code of
{
Federal Regulations, the following information is submitted:
1.
Corrective steps taken and results achieved:
To correct the condition as stated above, the Procedure (1-PT-11) has been revised such that normal surveillance is based on data from current plant status, instead of using the monthly Fuel Performance Characteristics Report provided to the station by Vepco Fuel Resources Dept.
This eliminates delays associated with interdepartmental correspondence since all calcula-tions are performed at the site.
2.
Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further non-compliance:
We believe that the above listed corrective action will be sufficient.
3.
Date when fall compliance vill be achieved:
Full compliance was achieved on 2/25/80.
