20555 Gentlemen:

VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY NORTH ANNA POWER STATION UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 SUPPORTING INFORMATION FOR REVISING THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR OPERABILITY OF THE TURBINE OVERSPEED PROTECTION SYSTEM Your letter dated February 6, 1984, requested additional information regarding our December 12, 1983 amendment request for revising the testing frequency of the turbine overspeed protection system.

Our request was to test the turbine overspeed protection system, at North Anna Unit Nos. I and 2, on a monthly basis instead of once per seven days.

Your request was to provide confirmation that the secondary steam system for North Anna Unit Nos. I and 2 uses all volatile chemical treatment and that the turbine and turbine overspeed protection system fall within the envelope of the Westinghouse generic recommendations for monthly turbine valve testing.

The all volatile chemical treatment for North Anna Unit Nos. 1 and 2 is described in Section 10.4.3.2 of the North Anna Power Station Updated Final Safety Analysis Report. As described, North Anna Unit No. 1, uses a modified all volatile chemical treatment with boric acid treatment and North Anna Unit No. 2 uses the' normal all volatile chemical treatment.

It should be noted that North Anna Unit No. 2 also uses the modified all volatile chemical treatnent.

The North Anna UFSAR will be updated to reflect this change.

In addition. North Anna Unit Nos.

I and 2 follow the recommendations of WCAP-8113, Revision i dated January, 1975 (SIP 5-4 Standard Information Package).

With respect to whether the North Anna turbine and turbine overspeed ' protection system fall within the envelope of the Westinghouse generic recommendations for monthly turbine valve testing, enclosed is a letter from Westinghouse recommending a reduced surveillance interval of once per month.

Very truly yours,

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MEMO 041 1 REASON FOR MEMO Based on a review of testing frequency and performa' nce data from Westinghouse turbine and component incidents records and a 1982 survey of utilities operating Westinghouse nuclear turbines, Westinghouse concluded that for nuclear units with steam chests there is no significant difference in the valve failure rate between valves' tested weekly and those tested monthly. It was further noted that monthly versus weekly valve

-- testing frequency may be beneficial because it reduces the time a plant is operating in a " transient state."

2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCElhlFORMATION Westinghouse recommends that the throttle, governor, interceptor and reheat stop valves of nuclear turbine-generator units with steam chests be tested monthly.
