C5257 - Request for Information, Ver=ont Yankee, FRC Task 372, EEQ Review "MI-Action Plan items.

Ref a rence :

DISCUSSION:

FRC requested the following infor=ation and clarification from Vermont Yankee's November.

1980 EEQ sub=ittal in response to 19013 so that the EEQ review of TMI-Action Plan items installed as of 1/1/81 may proceed. As a preliminary to the questions, N. B. Le of the NRC explained Franklin's specific scope with respect to the review:

1.

FAC pointed out that the reference EEQ submittal stated that TMI-Action

-Plan items were included in the submittal, however these were not identified on the individual SCEW sheets or anywhere in the sub=ittal and therefore the de termination of which equipment constitutes TMI-Action ?lan equipment cannot be made by FRC.

FRC requested that the Licensee identify the TMI-Action Plan items and correlate those to the requirements of NUREG-0737 with implementat:.on dates as of 1/1/51 (these are listed below). The following NUREG-0737 sect $ ons were stated by the Licensee as not being applicable to ;ae Vermont Yankee plant:

IIE1.2, IIE3.1, IIG1, IIK3.12, IIK3.9.

2.

For the remaining four sections of the NUREG, the following details were provided by the Licensee:

o IID3

- SCEW sheets PAM2 and PAM3 (acoustic trans=1 ter and accele rome ter).

FRC requested that the Licensee identify all hardware associated with the equipment in this section, e.g.,

cable or terminal blocks associated with the trans-Also po.=? bly penetrations.

(It mitter and accelerometer.

4 should be roced that Franklin asked tha Licensee to identi fy all equip =ent associated with the re=aining sections appli able to the NUREG.)

o The Licensee stated that the following equipmen t was TMI-Action Plan Equipment:

MBVI-6 (unqualified pr'esently installed pressure switches)

MBVI-7 and PAM The Licensee stated that information on this equipment is currently being developed and will be included in the 90-day response.

FRC asked if the Licensee -

could make this information available to TRC

+

in advance with this request for informttion so that we may review this material.

o IIF.1 -

Drywell pressure post accident monitoring, PAM-ll, and toros level instrumentation (containment water level), PAM-9.

o The Victorine Nobel gas monitor, there is no information available on this as yet.

This will be added later.

o IIF.1 -

Licensee stated that the Vermonc Yankees position is the same as the G.E. BWR Ovners' Group position. NRC is currently providing this information to FRC.

o IIB.3 -

The Licensee will check to see what equipment is applicable -

to the specific section.

FRC noted that PAS-1 and PAS-2 may be associated with this section.

o IIF4.2 -

The Licensee staped that circuit logic modifications were-the only changes to the system.

The' Licensee is usin'g the previously installed equipment. NRC requested that the Licensee provide Franklin with a statement of justification as to the Licensee's position on this NUREG section. In addiefon, FRC will review the EEQ associated with'the installed equipment.

o IIF.1 -

Added to this section should be Item 2.

FRC requested that th,e' Licensee identify any other TMI-Action Plan equipmen; that may have been installed prior to the implementation date.

FRC would review this equipment if the it. formation was available.

3.

FRC pointed out that it should be understood that any equipment installed in the plant that is associated with SE-Action Plan items installed as of 1/1/81 would be reviewed by FRL c.en if it is existing or original.

equipmen t.

4 Apparently there is a letter dealing with-TMI-Action Plan ite=s. dated 2/2/81 concerning schedule for i=plementation.

FRC requests a copy of

.'this letter if the concent of the letter deals with the scepc of this assignment, e.g.. specific sections applicable to NUREG-0737, EEQ Review.

In ' addition, Franklin requested that the Licensee identify the approximate installation dates for the.DH-Action Plan equipment within scope so that the proper criteria may be identified, e.g., NUREG-0588 Category 1 or-Category 2 for the D0R Guidelines.

e

. Telecon 8/21/81 CS257 CJC,k'HS. DS, RK/Schmidt, Rooney Task 12372 5.

FRC requested that the Licensee send in to FRC the qualification documentation

-referenced as evidence of qualification for the identified TMI-Action Plan equipment, e.g.,

test reports, etc.

Any documentation which is proprietary in nature should be identified.

It should b'e noted that Franklin stated that there are a nu=ber of test reports cerrently in our possession and therefore if the Licensee provides a list by telephone call there is a good chance that the Licensee would only have to send in those reports which FRC does not have in its possession.

6. "FRC requested that the Licensee provide FRC with methodologrused in develop-ment of the environmenti.1 service conditions (this is generally provided as up-front generic details on Licensee submittals in response.to 79013 and covers such items as radiation and HEL3s, references for te=perature/ pressure, containment profiles, etc.

7.

FRC requested the normal environmental service conditions for locations where TMI-Action Plan equipment is located e.g.,

inside containment and in other outside containment areas.

P.

FRC co==itted to providing a typed copy of this telephone conversation and it would be sent to all parties.

This will constitute the request for informa-tien.

The Licensee stated that he will get back to Vernon Rooney vich a schedule for turn-around time answering this request for infor=ation. This will be done in the near future.

The infor=ation flow will be as follows:

The Licensee will provide simultaneous distribution of information to FRC and NRC Project Manager, however the Project Manager will receive the cover letter only and not attachments such as test reports etc.

Addresses are as follows:
