FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES I. INTRODUCTION.

Georgia Power Company ("GPC") hereby responds to the NRC Staff's First Set of Interrogatories to Georgia Power Company, dated July 16, 1993. On August 4, 1993, after obtaining the agreement of both NRC Staff counsel and Intervenor's counsel, GPC requested and the Licensing Board granted an extension of time, to August 9, 1993, to file this response.

The first paragraph of page one of the NRC's interrogatories states that the interrogatories relate to diesel starts, or attempts to start, occurring between March 9308160151 930809 PDR ADOCK05000g24 o

yp3

i e

f e

20, 1990 and April 9, 1990, inclusive. Certain of the interrogatories, however, request information relative to diesel starts occurring as late as April 19, 1990. In responding to each of those interrogatories, GPC has included information concerning diesel starts which occurred between April 9 and April 19. ,

Unless otherwise noted, the source of knowledge of each person responsible for verifying GPC's interrogatory responses herein is their personal recollections as well as any documents referred to in the responses they are verifying.

II. GPC RESPONSES TO SPECIFIC INTERROGATORIES.1

1. a. and b. (Cash /Bockhold) Jimmy Paul Cash counted diesel generator starts in preparation for GPC's meeting t with the NRC on April 9, 1990. He used the Unit Control Log 2

and Shift Supervisor Log and prepared a handwritten list of diesel starts which, he believes, is the same as the 1

GPC's responses are numbered to correspond to the numbers of the requests in NRC Staff First Interrogatories to Georgia Power Company, dated July 16, 1993.

2 As of April 9, 1990, the Diesel Start Log had not been updated since March 13, 1990. When this Start Log was updated in late April, it included 1B diesel starts (nos. 1-90-128 through 131) which had not been recorded in either the Unit Control Log or Shift Supervisor Log.

e 9'

typewritten list which he brought to his OI interview on June 14, 1993. Mr. Cash provided to Mr. Bockhold the number of diesel starts (18 and 19) for the 1A and 1B diesels which-appeared in the April 9, 1990 presentation transparency and the April 9, 1990 GPC letter to NRC. At present, Mr. Cash  ;

cannot definitively recall which specific starts he counted in arriving at the 18 and 19 numbers. Relying on Mr. Cash, Mr. Bockhold did not personally count the starts and does not know which ones are the "18 and 19" which Mr. Cash counted. Those same numbers together with subsequent review by site personnel formed one of the bases for the "at least 18 times each" statement in the signed LER 90-006.

The " test program" which is referred to in the sentence 1 from the April 19, 1990 LER and quoted in interrogatory no.

1, was intended by Mr. Bockhold to refer to the testing of the diesel control systems which did not require diesel starts, i.e., the calibration of the Calcon sensors and the logic testing of the control systems. According to the Plant Vogtle 1R2 D/G TRN A Target vs. Actual Schedule and Maintenance Work Order Control No. 19001576, this control systems testing was completed for the 1A diesel before start no. 148 on March 30, 1990; according to the Plant Vogtle 1R2 D/G TRN B Target vs. Actual Schedule, it was completed for the 1B diesel before start no. 137 on March 27, 1990.

i Based on Mr. Bockhold's understanding of the completion of the test program, there were at least 18 consecutive successful starts of the 1A diesel (start nos. 148.through 173) and the 1B diesel (start nos. 137 through 154). GPC's June 29, 1990 Safety Analysis and Engineering Review

("SAER") audit report and GPC's August 30, 1990 letter to NRC are sources of knowledge for this response.

c. (Bockhold) Yes. Cn April 19, 1990, Mr. Bockhold

^

understood the starts to be consecutive. Also, 1A diesel start nos. 148-173 and 1B diesel start nos. 137-154, >

discussed in the response to interrogatory 1.a. and b.

above, are indeed consecutive.

d. Based on the answer to interrogatory 1.c., GPC l

considers this interrogatory to be inapplicable.

e. (Stokes /Bockhold) Regulatory Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.(3) refers to but does not define " successful starts."  ;

1 That paragraph does define a " valid successful test" as a 4

successful start "followed by successful loading (sequential or manual) to at least 50% of continuous rating and continued operation for at least one hour." The diesel starts described in LER 90-306 were not limited to " valid successful tests" (as defined in Section C.2.e. of the Reg.

Guide), or starts associated with such tests. The starts described in LER 90-006 were intended to be consistent with

_4 -

7 m, , -

l l

the use of " successful starts" in Reg. Guide 1.108, Section C.2.c.(1), connoting proper start-up to required voltage and frequency.

f. (Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) As noted above, Reg.

Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.(3) does not define " successful start," although it does define a " valid successful test."

The diesel start information which GPC included in LER 90-006 was not limited to valid successful tests. GPC does not believe that it expressly informed the NRC on or before April 19, 1990 of the definition of " successful starts" used in the April 9, 1990 transparency. GPC did not use this term in either the April 9, 1990 letter or the April 19, 1990 LER. Nor does GPC believe that, in discussions with the NRC concerning those starts in the April 1990 time frame, it referred to Reg. Guide 1.108 or used the term t

" valid successful tests." ,

Given the NRC's review of diesel generator testing subsequent to the March 20, 1990 site area emergency and the nature of the special diesel testing conducted by GPC, the NRC knew or should have known that the " starts" referred to in these instances were not limited to " valid successful tests" as defined in Reg. Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.  ;

g. (Bockhold/McCoy) As of April 19, 1990, the date

?

LER 90-006 was issued, there were no unsuccessful starts or failures to start the 1A or 1B diesels subsequent to the

" test program" as that term was intended by Mr. Bockhold (see the response to 1.a. and b. above). GPC's June 29, [

1990 SAER report and GPC's August 30, 1990 letter to NRC are sources of knowledge for this response. .

h. and i. (Stringfellow) NRC Inspection Report 50-424/91-19, dated August 1, 1991, concluded that several i

failures of the 1B diesel (start nos. 1-90-132, 134 and 136), which occurred between March 20, 1990 and April 19, 1990, were not reported in accordance with VEGP Tech. Spec.

S 4.8.1.1.3. Those starts were not reported pursuant to the Tech. Spec.3 because GPC interpreted recommendations of Reg.

Guide 1.108, Section C.3.b. as not applying.to starts performed prior to the diesel being declared operable following an engine disassembly, inspection and instrument calibration procedure during the refueling outage.

Following discussions with the NRC concerning the interpretation of Reg. Guide 1.108, GPC submitted Special Report No. 1-91-1 on June 4, 1991 which discussed 1B diesel start nos. 1-90-132, 134 and 136. That report also discussed 1B diesel start nos. 1-90-120 through 124 which, 3 VEGP Technical Specification Section 4.8.1.1.3 provides, in #

part, that "[r)eports of diesel generator failures shall include the information recommended in Regulatory Position C.3.b of Regulatory Guide 1.108...."

based on NRC Inspection Report 91-19, the NRC apparently concluded were not required to be reported pursuant to the Tech. Spec.

NRC personnel associated with the Augmented Inspection ,

Team and the Incident Inspection Team were informed by GPC of the circumstances concerning 1B diesel start nos. 132, 134 and 136 prior to April 9, 1990. Sources of knowledge ,

for this paragraph include: an April 6, 1990 telecopy from k

Plant Vogtle to the NRC transmitting two documents designated by the IIT as nos. 178 and 180; handwritten notes of Mr. Rick Kendall, a member of both the AIT and the IIT, dated March 24 and 25, 1990; transcripts of telephone conversations between GPC and NRC personnel, dated April 3 and 10, 1990; Plant Vogtle Maintenance Work Order Control No. 19001511; and NRC Inspection Report No. 90-05, dated April 26, 1990.

2. a. and b. (Bockhold/McCoy) Mr. Cash cannot recall which specific starts make up the 18 and 19 numbers used in the April 9, 1990 transparency. Based on the total number of starts counted by Mr. Cash, however, it is clear that he included some starts that were part of the test program (as redefined in the cover letter to the June 29, 1990 revised LER). As used in the June 29, 1990 revised LER, the

-7 -

l w _ _ _ _ _ - _ - _ _ _ - _ . _ - - _ _ _ . - _ _ _

1 l

l completion of the test program was expressly defined to be J j

"the first successful test in accordance with [VEGP) i procedure 14980-1 ' Diesel Generator Operability Test'...."

These tests are identified on Tables 1 and 2 of GPC's August 30, 1990 letter as " normal surveillance;" for the 1A diesel this operability test was start no. 164 (April 1, 1990) and for the 1B diesel it was start no. 143 (March 28, 1990). Using that definition of the completion of the test program, GPC computes that there were at least eight 1A diesel starts and at least six 1B diesel starts which were included in the diesel start numbers reported in the April 19, 1990 LER that were "part of the test program."

As discussed in the response to interrogatories 1.a. ,

and b. above, at the time the April 19, 1990 LER was prepared, Mr. Bockhold had a different understanding of what

" completion of the test program" meant. If the completion  ;

of the test program is defined as Mr. Bockhold interpreted 4 it on April 19, 1990, then none of the starts reported in the April 19, 1990 LER were "part of the test program." .

GPC's June 29, 1990 SAER Report and its August 30, 1990 letter to NRC are sources of knowledge for this response.

c. and d. (Bockhold/McCoy) Mr. Cash cannot recall which specific starts make up the 18 and 19 numbers used in the April 9, 1990 transparency. However, as stated above,

_g _

i if the completion of the test program is defined as Mr.

I Bockhold interpreted it on April 19, 1990, then none of the l starts reported in the April 19, 1990 LER were "part of the GPC's June 29, 1990 SAER Report and its I test program."

August 30, 1990 letter are sources of knowledge for this response.

e. and f. Please refer to the responses to interrogatories 1.a. and b. and 2.a. and b. above.

g. and h. (Bockhold) The commencement and termination of activities associated with the testing conducted on the diesel generators during the outage of March 1990 are identified on the Plant Vogtle D/G 1R2 TRN A and B Target vs. Actual Schedules, which schedules will be rade available  :

to the NRC Staff upon request. GPC notes that testing schedules were developed and revised from time to tine during the course of the outage, and do not contain all the i

l information concerning the " test program."

3. (Stokes) Today, the 1B Diesel Start Log, at p. 10, -

indicates that start nos. 1-90-120 and 121, both of which occurred on March 21, 1990, were (1) invalid tests, (2) successful, and (3) failures. Initially, on May 2, 1990, I these starts were identified as invalid tests and as I

successful. (GPC has a copy of the Diesel Start Log as it i 1

l i

existed on May 2, 1990.) Following discussions with the NRC beginning in August 1990, GPC changed its method of  !

classifying certain starts. As a result, the failure column was checked for starts 120 and 121. When the failure column was checked, the check marks in the successful column should have been stricken but, due to oversight, were not.

4. a., c. and d. (Stokes) As used in the Diesel Start Log, with. respect to valid tests, the heading "S" for

" successful" ove:- the fif th column connotes a valid successful test. This term was defined in March of 1990 in Section 3.3 of VEGP Procedure No. 55038-C, consistent with the description of " valid tests and failures" in Reg. Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.(1)-(8).

In the case of an invalid test, there is no definition of a " successful" invalid test. With respect to invalid tests, Mr. Stokes determined that the " successful" column of the Diesel Start Log should be checked whenever an invalid test did not result in a failure in accordance with the description of failures appearing in Section 3.3 of ,

Procedure 55038-C.

b., c. and d. (Stringfellow/Aj1 uni /McCoy) The August 30, 1990 GPC letter to the NRC was signed by Mr. McCoy, not ,

Mr. Hairsten. As used in the August 30, 1990 letter, the

heading " success" over the third columns of Tables 1 and 2 refers to " successful starts," not " valid successful tests,"

and was defined in the third paragraph of that letter. This definition was formulated in August 1990 by a combination of GPC personnel believed to include McCoy, Ajluni, Rushton and  ;

Shipman who considered this definition to be consistent with the criteria used by Mr. Cash when he counted diesel starts prior to April 9, 1990.

5. (Stokes) Yes. The third column of the Diesel Start Log is entitled " Valid Test" and, in March of 1990, was 1 defined in accordance with Section 3.3 of VEGP Procedure No.

55038-C, consistent with Reg. Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.

6. Based on the answer to interrogatory no. 5, GPC considers this interrogatory to be inapplicable.

7. a. and b. (Cash /Bockhold) As noted above in the response to interrogatory 1.e., Reg. Guide 1.108, Section C.2.e.(3) does not define " successful start," although it i

does define a " valid successful test." The diesel start j information which GPC included on the April 9, 1990 presentation transparency was not limited to " valid j I

successful tests" (as defined in Section C.2.e. of the Reg.

\

e interviews of Messrs. Bockhold and Cash on August 14, 1990.

f. and g. (Cash /Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) Messrs.

Cash, Bockhold, McCoy and Hairston believed and expected the NRC personnel at the meeting to understand that the 18 and 19 successful starts were consecutive successful starts.

h. and i. (Cash /Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) GPC does not believe that any GPC attendee at the April 9, 1990 meeting told the NRC that the 18 and 19 successful starts were either consecutive or not consecutive.

8. The response to this interrogatory 2: !reluded in the response to interrogatory no. 5. above.

numbers were counted, are which Mr. Cash brought tc

Guide), or starts associated-with such tests. The diesel start information on the transparency was intended to be consistent with the use of " successful starts" in Reg. Guide I

1.108, Section C. 2.c. (1) , connoting proper start-up to required voltage and frequency.

Mr. Cash recalls that he understood Mr. Bockhold wanted him to count starts without significant problems, where the ,

diesel had started properly and reached the required voltage and frequency. Mr. Cash interpreted "significant problems" ,

t to be anything which would have prevented the diesel from operating in an emergency. Mr. Bockhold, who directed the preparation of the transparency used in the April 9, 1990 presentation, had the same understanding.

c. The response to this interrogatory is included within the response to interrogatory 1.f. above.

d. and e. (Cash /Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) GPC does not i believe that any GPC attendee at the April 9, 1990 meeting had any questions at the time as to the accuracy of the 18 and 19 successful starts. A conversation did apparently ,

occur between Mr. Bockhold and Mr. Cash, and possibly other GPC personnel, concerning whe:her the diesel start numbers represented valid successful tests in accordance with Reg.

Guide 1.108. This conversation was described to the NRC Operational Safety Inspection team during the transcribed j 1

interviews of Messrs. Bockhold and Cash on August 14, 1990.

f. and g. (Cash /Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) Messrs.

Cash, Bockhold, McCoy and Hairston believed and expected the NRC personnel at the meeting to understand that the 18 and 19 successful starts were consecutive successful starts.

h. and i. (Cash /Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) GPC does not believe that any GPC attendee at the April 9, 1990 meeting told the NRC that the 18 and 19 successful starts were either consecutive or not consecutive.

8. The response to this interrogatory is included in the response to interrogatory no. 5. above.

9. and 10. (Cash) Although Mr. Cash cannot conclusively identify the specific diesel starts which nake up the 18 and 19 successful starts referred to on the transparency (see the response to interrogatory no. 1.a. and b. above), the-total number of IA and 1B diesel starts extracted by Mr.

Cash from the control Log, and from which the 18 and 19 numbers were counted, are reflected on the typewritten list which Mr. Cash brought to his June 14, 1993 01 interview.

11. and 12. (Bockhold) The description of the testing of the diesels on the transparency entitled " Diesel Testing"

\ H I

I l

used by GPC at the April 9, 1990 presentation is generally '

l in chronological order from the top to the bottom of the  ;

1 page. Because Mr. Cash cannot specifically identify which starts comprise the 19 1B diesel starts reflected on the  ;

" Diesel Testing" transparency, GPC cannot otherwise identify by start number the 14 multiple starts. While the order of the entries may appear to signify that there were 14 starts ,

between the time of the "E-Run Bubble Testing" (i.e., start no. 137 on March 27, 1990) and the "UV Run Test" (i.e.,  ;

start no. 142 on March 27, 1990), in fact, there were not.

13. and 14. (Bockhold/McCoy/Hairston) No. The language

"[s]ubsequent to this test program" appearing in_the April 19, 1990 LER was selected to better delineate the time period within which at least 18 successful starts were l

believed to have occurred.
