Response to Generic Letter No. 90-03 7

Gentlemen:.

t This is in response to Generic Letter No. 90-03, " Relaxation of

-Staff Position In Generic Letter 83-28, Item 2.2 Part 2; Vendor

~

Interface for Safety-Related Components."

Therein the. staff concluded that an adequate vendor interface program should include:,

j (a)

A program with the NSSS vendor as described in the Vendor t

Equipment-Technical Information Program (VETIP) ;. INPO l

8.$-010, which covers all the safety-related. components 4

within the NSSS scope of supply.

This program should o

H

. include, provisions for assuring receipt by the licensee of.

?

all technical information provided-by the NSSS vendor; and (b)

A program of periodic contact with the vendors of other key safety-related components not included.in (a) above.

We have conducted a

review of our vendor interface programs to determine what changes,. 11 any,,would'be appropriate to address the guidance' provided.by Generic Letter No. 90-03.

It has been confirmed

.that our programLalready includes the elements contained in (a)Labove with. respect' to o u'r 'NSSS vendor.

'However, our-administrative controls associated with the interface of other vendors. supplying key safety-related components will~ require a revision to incorporate the t

a elements contained in (b) above.

y Revisions.Lto our administrative procedures to modify vendor contact requirements, in keeping;with the-guidance of Generic Letter 1

90-03, 'will be implemented by October 15, 1990.

These revisions will l

adopt

'a' good-: faith, documented effort to periodically contact the

. vendors of key, safety-related components.

To support implementation.

of the

above, it is necessary to develop a

key safety-related components list.for each unit.

This list will be developed by December 314,1990.

r-J.

RO pin 30 to-G:n ric Lettor No. 90-03 Page 2 We believe the implementation of our program, as discussed above, will ensure that vendor information for safety-related components is

complete, current, and controlled-throughout the life of the plants, i

Our programs originally implemented in response to Generic Letter No.

I 83-28 have been both difficult to implement and costly to manage.

We-l agree with the NRC's conclusion that implementing a formal vendor-interface

' program for every safety-related. component is not practical.

Upon implementation of the above, our vendor interface program will-meet both of the eleconts set out in Generic Letter No.

l 90-03.

If you have any questions regarding this submittal, please call ne or members of my staff.

i Sincerely,.
