Technical Specification 6. 8.1.e. requires that written procedures be implemented which cover, in part, emergency plan implementation.

Appendix 8.5 of the Emergency Plan describes equipment to be maintained in Emer-gency Health Physics Kits.

Procedure HP-ADM-EP-1 requires an inventory of three Emergency Health Physics Kits monthly (3013 days).

Contrary to the above, the three Emergency Health Physics Kits were not inventoried during the month of November 1979, within the prescribed time period.

This is a deficiency.

Response

The above deficiency is correct as 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:

Y A periodic test was written and approved by the SNSOC to insure the Ikalth Physics Kits are inventoried on a monthly basis.

By making this inventory a periodic test the Performance Engineer will now verify its completion.

2.

Corrective Steps Which Will be Taken to Avoid Further Non-Compliance:

Wb believe that the above listed corrective action will be sufficient.

3.

Date When Full Compliance Will be Achieved :

Full compliance was achieved on 3/12/80.

Technical Specification 6. 2. 2.f (Amendment 3, ef fective May I,1978) required at least five fire brigade members on site at all times, in addition to the minimum shif t crew required for a safe, orderly shut-down of the plant.
