limitations on concentrations of agents that could cause corrosive attack (en reactor coolant system piping, in this case).

Station Order SOI-A0109, " Station Documents - Preparation, Revision and Review," defines the responsibilities for preparation, review, approval and revision of San Onofre Unit 1 documents.

Paragraph 6.4.8 of that order, " Procedures Prepared b; Outside Contractors" requires that contractor procedures be assigned a special procedure number, and that they be reviewel by the OSRC and approved by the Plant Manager.

i Contrary to thece requirements, the licensee attempted to control chemical conditions during startup in accordance with Revision III to the Westinghouse " Steam Generator Soak /
