Request for Additional Information Appilcation Dated July 19, 1993 Combustion Engineering, Inc. (CE) i Docket 70-36 I
General Comments:
1.
CE should include the controls and limits that are important to safety in the license and supporting documents such as the operation sheets.
2.
Section 2.6 states that limits and controls in the license are contained in operation sheets. These limits and controls are a necessary ingredient to the safety of the operation and should be maintained at all times.
In addition, it is imperative to i
ensure that when items that may affect safety are replaced, these changes should be made under the auspices of a formal program that provides for review.
Please provide a description of the program that CE utilizes to accomplish these objectives.
