We have evaluated the licensee's response and conclude that the use of the SPDS has not been compromised by the issuance of new EOPs. Therefore, we consider your concern not l 4 substantiated and this issue closed. k Tnother concern expressed by you on June 11, 1991 was that there were cracks in the Millstone Unit 2 steam generator. On May 25,1991, Milhtone Unit 2 detected a significant primary to secondary leak and on May 26,1991 went into cold shutdowTi to repair leaks. g nis action was prior to your expressed concern on June 11, 1991.

You assened that the Millstone Unit 2 Safety Parameter Display System is inoperable since the revision of emergency operating procedures have made the data in the system invalid. We referred these concerns to the licensee, and NU responded with the following information: (1) The revised set of EOPs, based on Revision 4 of the BWR Owner's Emergency Group Guidelines (EPGs), were implemented after the SPDS became operable. The most significant change was the addition of containment control guidance. The ability to monitor secondary variables, while not required by NUREG-0737, was considered an enhancement. (2) Prior to the implementation of the new EOPs NU reviewed the SPDS agamst the associated EOP changes and concluded that with minor changes the SPDS system would remain operational with respect to the original provisions of Supplement 1 of NUREG-0737 and the revised EOPs. Various changes were made on the SPDS and operators were trained on any anomalies. (3) Although new EOP entry conditions have been added to the data these variables are not required to be part of the data. The fact that this data has not been added to the SPDS does not effect the operability of the SPDS. (4) A long term improvement in the SPDS is being planned, however, the operation of the SPDS and nuclear safety is not compromised by use of the present EOPs and the SPDS. b:e.,1c..a it:. :::r1 we de:ej in a;;r:.:cce wla De F:ceCgti ;r.ictmahon Act, excmgions.I2I 7 f0lA-7 dzd&_
