I concur with Bob's findings (attached). It would cartainly be a y

benefit to our interface manage: ment progra= to have front-loading participation on proble=s affecting our area. Yet. I 'cnew that you I

are leaving much of this front-loading to Plant Integration and also g

e that much of the initial personnel L:volument is being dictated.from j

depart:annt level.

=.

il Please advise as co what action yoit feel is appropriate.

9 A situation has been developing that I believe needs escalation by' you to Depart-rent Managar level for a policy decision. Several recent site operational prehle=s Iq have occurred, e.C., TPC - LEP Rod Problem, SMUD - Loss of Site Power to the !Ci!,

J:

251-2, Tailure of Anti-Rotational Device on Idle Pucp and D:37 opening on Loss of li X-Cabinet Power. The approach, as I perceive it, has been to evaluate what vest j:'.

wrong, fix it and return to operation. There has been p, for:41 Safety Analysis 5.;

involve =ent in any of these evaluations. The lack of our involve = ant can have at least three detrc= ental consequences best illustract.d by the'following exa=ples:

k By the time SA vas asked to be involved in the TMI-2 pu=p incident, the 7

NRC had done its hacework. Vithcut adequate ti:e to ' prepare 4 ;o.41tian G

on three pu=p Safety Analysis evaluation, the indications are that the G

NRC will require cuch tore partial ;ucp analysis en C?CO - Midland Docket.

y This may be cost-recoverable for us on Midland, but what about TYA7 2.

Tepact on Other coerational Plants The NRC also intimated, in the exa=ple given above, that no 347 plant F

.~.

would be allowed 3-pu=p operation without extensive analysis. Turther it j-appears that at least two Tech Spec Sections (3.2.2 a:d 3.2.3 in Std. 7cr-B 3

3 mat) vill need revisions for all 3&*J plants.

Items 1,,and 2 r.sy not have been averted by early SA involvc=ent, but so=e sitigation 7
