NRC STAFF'S ANSWERS TO SOC'S THIRD SET O AND REQUESTS FOR PRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS T THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STAF In order to expedite this proceeding and to continue and facili the cooperative efforts between the NRC Staff (Staff) and I t ae n ervenor Shorehan Opponents Coalition with respect to discovery matters 1/

, the NRC Staff has determined to treat the above-captioned SOC I t n errogatories and Requests for the production of documents dated March 1

, 1982 as an informal discovery request.

The Staff's voluntary response to SOC's request should not be contrued as a Staff acknowledgement that SOC' discovery requests comply with the provisions of 10 C F R s

5 2.720(b)(2)(ii) or 6 2.744 as regards discovery against the Staff

request was served on Applicant but not on the Staff. Accordingly, there is no outstanding discovery request as to Staff regarding Contention 19.

The Staff notes, however, that the July 29, 1981 SOC discovery request has been readdressed to Applicant on March 1,1982. The Staff will voluntarily provide comments to SOC on Applicant's responses at such time as Applicant may respond to the discovery requests in question.

50C Contention 19(a) 1.

Attached find letter dated February 4,1982 from Applicant (J. L. Smith) to Staff (Mr. Harold R. Denton). Additionally, see NRC Inspection Report 81-23, a copy of which is in the local public document roon.

(A copy has also been supplied Energy Research Group,Inc.)

SOC Interrogatory 3 1.

There are currently r.o NRC documents pertainjng to the Staff's Regulatory Guide 1.97 reviaw of the Shoreham plant since the Staff has not yet reviewed the Shoreham plant for conformance to Regulatory l

Guide 1.97.

The Staff is in the process of developing policy with regard to the method of review and schedule of review for compliance to Regulatory Guide 1.97. This policy will cover both operating plants and plants in the licensing process such as Shoreham.

2.

The Staff has received from LILC0 a scheduled implementation

[

date for equipment identified in Reg. Guide 1.97, Rev. 2.

This document was transmitted to the Staff on July 13, 1981 in the form of affidavits of C. A. Daverio, T. F. Gerecke, B. R. McCaffrey and D. A. Robare. These l

i

O.

affidavits were filed in connection with Applicant's motion for sumary disposition of SOC Contention 3.

3.

The Staff has neither accepted nor rejected LILCO's scheduled implementation date. The Staff has not yet reviewed the Shoreham plant for conformance to Regulatory Guide 1.97, Rev. 2.

(See(1)above) 4.

This question as phrased is difficult to answer yes or no. As stated in NUREG-0737, " Clarification of THI Action Plan Requirements,"

the capacity for effluent monitoring of radioiodines for the accident condition shall be provided by the licensee with sampling conducted by adsorption on charcoal or other media. The licensee shall also provide onsite laboratory capabilities to analyze or measure these samples.

E.

LILC0's proposed monitoring of halogen effluents is acceptable to the Staff. This is discussed in Supplement No. 2 to the Shoreham Safety Evaluation Report (NUREG-0420).

SOC Contention 6(a)(i) 1.

The Staff's Inspectinn Report relating to the " Staff QA/QC review, inspection and/or audit of the Shoreham nuclear plant conducted during February,1982" is still under preparation. At such time as the report is completed and is available for public review, a copy will be placed in the local public document room for Shoreham. However, the Staff does not view that inspection report as being relevant to the contention in question.

SOC Contention 7(a)(2) 1.

A meeting summary relating to a meeting between Staff and Applicant during February,1982 is under preparation. A copy of the summary, when completed, will be forwarded to all parties to this proceeding.

2.

The criteria used by the NRC Staff during its control room audit of Shoreham were essentially those which were later published as NUREG-0700. At that time NUREG-0700 was going through a final technical and editorial review, so the criteria used at Shoreham were not identical to those now presented in NUREG-0700. However, the similarity of the draft version and the published version is such that most differences are relatively minor, generally falling into the category of editorial revision.

3.

As stated above, the NRC Staff used a draft version of NUREG-0700 in its audit of the Shoreham control room.' So, generally, the answer to this question is:

"Yes, the criteria from NUREG-0700 were used." This is not to say, however, that each specific guideline in NUREG-0700 was specifically applied to every aspect of the Shoreham control room.

It must be renembered that the NRC Staff conducted an audit of the control room. Due to the limitations of time and manpower, the NRC Staff cannot do a detailed control roon design review of every applicant's control room.

_ ~

o 5-4.

Not applicable in view of answer to 3 above.

5.

The only relevant document is NUREG-0700. From the nature of the above interrogatories, Staff assumes S0C a has copy of the NUREG in question.

Respectfully submitted, Buq nl. fb A4 [A&
