Dear Mr. Stol:
On May 24, 1976, we again received (informally) a massive re-vision to the STS package we virtually finalized late last year.
One major concern is the continuing imposition of such massive revisions upon us during the most critical time of plant start-up and operator licensing.
Another is the inclusion of Crystal River 3 as a non-operating plant requiring immediate compliance with the new 10 CFR 50.55(a),
while operating plants appear to have been granted approximately 40 months maximum time for compliance.
A third concern is that our STS included surveillance criteria and frequency for equipment testing you deemed essential.
By referring to ASME Section XI, you incorporated a completely new set of surveillance criteria upon us.
Also in so doing, you incorporated the ASME use of "in service" as being synonymous with your term " surveillance".
We were prepared to accommodate the previous requirements for surveillance in STS.
Our procedures, hardware, and operator training were so accomplished.
A review of the new requirements requires us to complete immediately the following:
~5d ( (
General Office 3201 ininy-tourin street soutn. P.O Box 14042. St Petersburg. Fionca 33733 813-866-5151
Mr. John'Stol: June 24, 1976
' I '.
Perform an intensive review of ASME Section XI to determine specific requirements for inservice
' inspection lif all Class 1, 2, and 3 components and surveillance requirements for all pumps and valves.
2.
Relate requirements to specific pi'eces of. equipment to determine if surveillance testing or inservice 4
inspection can be-performed.
If it cannot, an ex-clusion needs to be requested.
3.
Rewrite Surveillance Procedures to reflect new requirements.
Out of the 134 Surveillance Procedures currently being developed from our STS, 67 or 50%
will require extensive rewriting.
i To perform these tasks, purchase additional testing equipment, establish a comprehensive vibration monitoring system for pumps and-implement these requirements while our operator personnel
.are running hot fuctional and other required testing is im-possible to do immediately.
[
We request that we be granted a waiver for compliance sufficient to allow us time to accomplish the above work effort on an
,~
acceptable schedule.
In fact, the operating plant' schedule of up to 40 months is in our case not an unrealistic maximum.
If you. desire, we welcome the opportunity to discuss this situation with you.
Very truly yours,
-l
