RE: OColiEE NUCLEAR STATION, UNTTS NO3. 1,2&3 A recent assessment of progress towards the implementation of the Nuclear Plant Reliability Data System (NPRDS) shows varying degrees of participation by nacicar power plant licensees. In general, however, it appears that this program is of Icw priority interest to utilities.
Development of this data system was initiated in 1969; it is sponsored by A.'1SI Subccusaittes NIS-20 and it has been in forsal operstion since July 1974. The AEC and more recently the NRC has actively endorsed and supported the developoient and implementation of this voluntary.
data reporting systen. The data obtained on safety-related componer.ts and systems frots the IiPHDS should be of marked interest to the entire nuc! car industry. Such data could provide a baseline for technological isprovement s, improved plant availability, better-founded survelliance test schedules, enhanced maintenance progrs=a and could be the basis for relaxing some licensine requirements. However, if participation contS. ages at its current uneven rate, it will be many years before the data bank can be ef fectively utilized.
We p refer that the system be supported voluntarily by the industry, but we will consider making participation mandatory if greater progresa is not sade. Therefore, if your company is not one of the few that is already a fully participating member of the MP2DS, we want to urge you to have it became one since your full participation is needed to make the NPRDS an ef fective vehicle for data collection.
