RFI-C5257-519 BACKGROUND Franklin Research Center (FRC) of Philadelphia, Pa. is providing assis-tance to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the equipment environmental qualification (EEQ) review of operating reactors. FRC will perform an EEQ review of the Licensee's 90-day response to outstanding issues from the NRC Equipment Environmental Qualification Safety Evaluation Report (SER) and the installed TMI Action Plan equipment. The review will be limited to safety-related equipment potentially exposed to a harsh environment. The results will be presented in the form of a technical evaluation report for each plant.

This request for additional information (RFI) is the result of an evaluation of the information provided by letters dated November 1981 [1] and September 25, 1981 [2].* FRC previously requested 'IMI Action Plan information by a telephone memorandum dated October 7, 1981.

a. Identification of all TMI Action Plan equipment installed as of 1/1/81 is requested.

b. Identification of TMI Action Plan 2

equipment installed with implementation dates after 1/1/81 is requested.

c. The correlation of these equipment items with the specific sections of NUREG-0737

[5] presented below (as applicable) is requested.

IIE1.2, IIE4.2, IIE3.1, IIG1, IIF2, IID3, IIK3.12 (Wx) , IIK3. 9 (Wx) , IIB 3, IIE4.1.

[The correlation is needed to ensure that all items are included in the review, e.g., if a transmitter is identified as a TMI Action Plan item, are the cable and terminal blocks associated with the device also identified?]

d. Fbr all installed TMI Action Plan equipment identified, a System Component Evaluation Worksheet (SCEW) (in accordance with 79-01B format) is requested.

e. The approximate installation date for the TMI Action Plan equipment items is requested so that the appropriate qualification criteria (NUREG-0588 or DOR Guidelines) can be used in the EEQ '

evaluation.

2. The qualification documents, e.g. , the actual test reports and associated correspondence

,,, cited as evidence of qualification listed on the SCEW sheets, for all identified TMI Action Plan equipment are requested. [The' identification of those reports considered to be proprietary is requested so that proper control of cocuments can be maintained.)
