J 414 Nicollet Mall D. E. Gilberts Minneapolis. Minnesota 55401 Senior vice Pressesnt Telephone (612) 330-6071 Power supply June 11, 1981 Mr. C. E. Norelius, Acting Director Division of Engineering and Technical Inspection Region III Office of Inspection and Enforcement U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 799 Roosevelt Road Glen Ellyn, IL 60137

Dear Mr. Norelius:

PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATLNG PLANT Docket Nos. 50-282 and 50-306 In response to your letter of May 21, 1981 which transmitted Inspection Reports No. 50-282/81-08 and 50-306/81-09, the following is offered:

Violation Technical Specification 6.5 requires that written procedures for mainte-nance and tests be followed. Administrative Control Directive 5 ACD 3.14

" Control of Measuring and Testing. Equipment," requires 'in part' that when calibrating instruments the as-found and as-left conditions be recorded.

Contrary to the above, test eq' ipment which was calibrated by the site showed only as-left values or a notation of " Cal Check OK" on the calibra-tion record cards. Additionally, some safety-related equipment that is calibrated under the preventative m" Nnance program had a single set of values which was labeled as " Actual on the associated calibration record cards.

This is a Severity Level VI violation (Supplement I).

Respons e The Section Work Instruction which controls !alibration of test equipment will be revised to include the following requirement:

"The Instrument Cal-ibration Card shall be used for recording both as-found and as-lef t data."

Full complicace will be achieved with issue of this revision which is ex -

pected to be complete by July 10, 1981.

Yours truly, e,3Ji,/-M__
