FPC RESPONSE TO IE BULLETIN 80-15 T
Item 1:
Within 10 days ~ of the date of. this Bulletin, verify by direct in-
.spection, in conjunction with-the appropriate telephone company representative, that the ENS at your facility is powered in the manner described in the two enclosures.
Response
Emergency Notification System (ENS) at CR-3 is powered by on-site power. This was verified by direct inspection on June 26, 1980.
Item 2:
Those facilities which have station packages requ'i ring on-site power, but which are not connected to a safeguards instrumentation bus which is. backed up by batteries and an inverter or equally re-liable power supply, shall make necessary modifications and provide such a connection.
Response
At CR-3, the station package is connected to a vital bus, which is backed up by batteries and an inverter.
This provides a non-interruptible power source to the ENS.
Item 3:
All facilities are to develop and conduct a test, within 60 days of the issuance ~ of this Bulletin, to verify that all extensions of the ENS located at your facility (ies) would remain fully operable from the facility (ies) to the NRC Operations Center in the event of a loss of offsite' power to your facility (ies).
This is not intended to mean that an actual loss of offsite power be executed.
Response
A test (No. 80-3-64) was successfully conducted on 7-15-80 to con-firm that the ENS remains fully operable from the facility to the NRC Operations Center, in the event of loss of offsite power.

Item 4:
If it is determined that station package requiring on-site power is not connected to a safeguards instrumentation bus backed up by automatic transfer to batteries and an inverter or an equally reliable power supply, notify the NRC Operations Center via the ENS within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after such determination.
Response
Not applicable.
See response to Items 1 and 2.
Item 5 :
Prepare and ~ issue an administrative procedure or directive which requires notification to the NRC Operations Center by commercial telephone or relayed message within one hour of the time that one or more extensions of the ENS located at your facilitf(ies) is sub-sequently found to be inoperable for any reason.
Response
Red and orange phones contain labels with the following message:
"IN THE EVENT THIS PHONE IS FOUND INOPERABLE NOTIFY THE NRC BY COMMERCIAL PHONE WITHIN ONE HOUR 301-492-8111" Also, see Attachment i regarding plant manager's memorandum to CR-3 pe rsonnel.
Lobo (F03)01A-2
A' Management Memorandum 30-5 NRC IE Bulletin 80-15 required us to, " Prepare and issue an administrative procedure or directive which requires noti-fication to the NRC Cperations Center by ccreercial telephone or related message within one hour of the time that one or more extensions of the ENS 1ccated at your f acility (ies) is subsequently found to be inoperable for any reason."
This letter will serve as that directive.
Labels are in the process of being installed on all NRC red and orange emergency phones to ir.dicate to personnel using those phones of the proper actions to be taken when those phones are found inop-erable.
All Section Heads and Department Ileads should indoctrinate individuals under their supervision to this policy.
