Gentlemen:
Thank you for your letter af June 23, 1980, informing us of steps you have
taken to correct the item of noncompliance concerning activities under NRC
Operating License Nos. DPR-32, DPR-47 and DPR-55, brought to you attention
.
'
in our letter of May 23, 1980. We have reviewed your response to the item
of noncompliance and discussed it further with R. Gill of the Duke Power
Corporate Offices, and R. Bond of the Oconee Plant staff. The following
statement should summarize the clarification established, during that review
and discussion, of the reporting requirements applir,able in instances of
missed surveillance tests.
Any missed surveillance test of a system or component meeting one of the
"
three criteria listed in the June 23 letter is reportable regardless of the
results of subsequent testing, based on your definition of operability.
From the time that the surveillance becomes overdue, that untested component
or system is inoperable and must be reported as such under Technical Speci-
fication 6.6.2.1.b.(2).
However, this does not relieve you of the need to
comply with Technical Specification 6.6.2.1.b.(3), against which the subject
citation was written.
It is our intent to interpret your response to the item of noncompliance as
a commitment to comply with the reportability requirements as clarified above.
If you have any additional comments or questions regarding this problem, we
will be glad to discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
E.c.
R. C. Lewis, Acting Chief
Reactor Operations and Nuclear
Support Branch
