filed a Motion for Leove to File Addit 1onal Discovery Re: Okonite Cables 8
with Bonded Jockets.
Additionally, this motion was accompanied by SLOMFP Supplemental Interrogatories Related to SLOMFP First Set of Uritten Interrogatories and Requests for the Production of Documents to the NRC Stoff Re: Okonite Cables with Bonded Jockets and SLOMFP Supplemental t
Interrogatories Related to SLOMFP First Set of Uritten Interrogatories and Requests for the Production of Documents to Pacific Gas and Electric Company ["PGSE"].
On April 19, 1993, PBSE responded by filing on Opposition to Request for Additional Discovery Re Cobles.
SLOMFP moves for leave to reply to PG&E's opposition to its request for additianol discovery.
A reply is needed in order to respond to PG&E's orgument that environmental qualification is not related to maintenance and surveillonce.
SLOMFP believes that environmental qual.Ification is on extremely important ospect of maintenance and surveillance.
Therefore we seek the Board's leave to reply to PG&E.
PG&E claims that none of the cable failures at Dicblo Congon Nuclear Power Plant ("DCNPP"3 are related to Contention I - maintenance and surveillance progrcms that are in question in this proceeding.

l environmental qualification is related to maintenance because the j
degrodotion of safety equipment and the ensuing loss of envlonmental i
quellfication con be due to insufficient maintenance.
As a matter of fcct, SLONFP understands that some of the failed cobles at DCNPP have been submerged under 3 to 9 feet of water for long periods of time Cond degraded] because the sump pump had not been maintained and, in fact, was I
found inoperable.
Additionally, it was discovered that a six-inch ABS I
conduit oppeared to have been broken.
NRC Inspection Report 93-03 CApril 8.
1993) at 7.
Environmental qualification may be o design consideration, I
but if the octual environment that the equipment was designed to operate in is not being maintained - and in this cose it certainly hasn't been - it becomes o maintenance issue.
1 PG&E also remarks that the cable failures at DCNPP on February 5 ond March 12, 1993 ore irrelevant because neither have Hypolon jockets, but neoprene - without bonded jockets.
Regardless of the type of jockets and i
whether or not they require environmental qualification, it is clear that l
PGSE is experiencing maintenance difficulties with a variety of cables.
Additional discovery is worronted.
PG&E continues to criticize SLOMFP's conduct of discovery, particulcrly its shortcomings during the site visit.
PG&E claims that i
SLOMFP did not request NCR DCl-52-EM-NCS9.
This is untrue.
SLOMFP records shou that SLOMFP requested all the NCRs and LERs that were listed as l
responsive to Interrogotories 12 and 19 and Document Request 22 on j
! in PGSE's Response to First Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents Filed by SLOMFP CPe:
Contention I]CMorch 29, l
1993].
See Attachment A.
Of the 93 NCRs listed, PGEE provided the SLOMFP I
with only 8.
Of the 29 LERs listed, PGSE provided SLOMFP with 20.
See l
tn- '*
i I
I SLOMFP Motion for Extension of Time to Examine Documents at DCNPP CApril 26, 1993).
SLOMFP hos requested these " missing" documents in its Motion to i
Compel PG&E to Respond to the First Set of Interrogatories and Requests for f
Production of Documents Faled by SLOMFP CRe: Contention IJCMorch 24, 1993].
PG&E believes that SLOMTP is unjustified in its discovery request l
because :t foiled to follow up on IN 92-81 CDecember 11, 1992).
Yet SLOMFP f
l did not identify this issue os being specific to DCNPP until it learned of the occurrence of the electrical ground on February 5, 1993.
SLDMFP p
learned of this event on March 25, 1993 and responded in a timely manner with appropriate motions and interrogatories.
SLOMFP's request for f
odditional discovery regarding the degraded Dkonite cables is justified and j
should be granted.
