This confirms the telephone communication between H. J. Miller of this office and W. Kurth of your organization on June 22, 1990, related to the NRC Diagnostic Team findings and subsequent Region 111 follow up on motor operated valves (MOVs) and their related t, witch settings at the Zion Nuclear Station. With regard to these issues, we understand that you will:

a.

For Unit 1, which is operating, confirm that all of the MOVs discussed in NRC IE Bulletin (IEB) 85-03 are operable or follow the appropriate Technical Specification action staternent requirements, b.

For the operability determination-of item a. above, base any conclusion which uses torque switch settings to determine operability c,n settings which have been physically verified in the plant or provide justification as to why this is not necessary.

c.

For MOVs whose operability determination is based on a plant or equipment operating configuration provide controls (procedure, standing order, etc.) which will ensure that the configuration will not be inadvertently disturbed.

d, for the shutdown unit, Unit 2, confirm that all the IEB 85-03 MOVs have their torque switch settings verified correct prior to returning Unit 2 to service (before entering Mode 2).

e.

perform a re-evaluation of Commonwealth Edison's IEB 85-03 Submittal for Zion Station to determine if any retesting or. resubmittal is necessary.

We understand that for items a-c, you will complete the actions and document the results by Tuesday, June 26, 1990, in a letter to Region 111 containing a listing of each valve, a brief description of its function, and its operability determination.

We further understand that by July 6',1990 you will also provide expected completion dates for items d. and e., and your program and schedule addressing potential discrepancies with all other safety-related EVs at Zion.
