Carolina Power & Light Company SERIAL: LAP-83-434 P. O. Box 1551
- Raleigh, N. C. 27602 OCT 141983 E E UTLEY Executive Vice Pres! dent Power Supply and Engineering & Construction Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Attention:
Mr. D. B. Vassallo, Chief Operating Reactors Branch No. 2 Division of Licensing United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555 BRUNSWICK STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 DOCKET NOS. 50-325 AND 50-324 LICENSE NOS. DPR-71 AND DPR-62 SUPPLEMENT TO GENERIC LETTER 82-33 RESPONSE REOUIREMENTS FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE CAPABILITY
Dear Mr. Vassallo:
Summary As a result of our recent discussions with Mr. S. D. MacKay of your staff, Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) hereby supplements its April 15, 1983 response to Generic Letter 82-33 for Brunswick Steam Electric Plant (BSEP). This supplement provides additional interim milestones and clarification of our previous response. Where conflicting schedules are provided, this letter takes precedence. Carolina Power & Light Company will make every reasonable effort to accomplish the below listed items on schedule; however, it is our understanding that should circumstances arise which warrant a revision of any aspect of the schedule, the Director of the Division of Licensing util be able to grant extensions for good cause shown.
Safety Parnmeter Display System (SPDS)
As stated in our letter of April 15, 1983, the computer-assisted approach for SPDS, selected by CP&L as best meeting the intent of NRC requirements, requires a major capital investment. Expenditures of this magnitude could not be justified prior to Commission approval of requirements in this area. This is particularly true for SPDS owing to the considerable I
debate and subsequent changes in guidance which impacted specific design-related and cost-sensitive areas such as seismic qualifications, Class U, qualifications and availability. The development of detailed hardware, software, and installation bid specifications could not be completed until these requirements were approved by the Commission.

D. B. Vassallo Only after detailed negotiations with a vendor is it possible to establish this design and procurement schedule including the schedule impact of other orders received by the vendor. An installation schedule cannot be completed until final design of the system is completed by the SPDS vendor and delivery is scheduled. Finally, the Control Room Design Review and Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP) upgrades and Regulatory Guide 1.97 implementation must be integrated with the overall SPDS logic.-
On February 25, 1983, CP&L received bids from firms to provide preliminary engineering, construction cost, and schedule estimates and to conduct on-site evaluatioas to identify and recommend solutions for space,
- Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning and power supply problems. A firm was selected and has conducted a preliminary assessment.
Negotiations with equipment vendors and award of a contract for the-SPDS are expected to be completed by the spring of 1984. Therefore, CP&L commits to submit a safety analysis and implementation plan to the NRC by December 31, 1984. At the same time, CP&L will submit a schedule detailing' dates by which the SPDS will be fully operational and the operators fully _
trained.
-Detailed Control Room Design Review (DCRDR)
The Essex Corporation has completed a DCRDR for the current configuration of the BSEP control room. Based 'upon the review, CP&L vill submit a program plan to meet GL 82-33 requirements in December 1984 along with a schedule for submittal of the final summary report and final implementations of the modifications resulting from the DCRDR.
Regulatory Guide 1.97 (RG 1.97)
A preliminary report concerning RG 1.97 compliance was prepared and submitted in September 1983. As full implementation is dependent upon the SPDS and E0P upgrade efforts, CP&L cannot commit to a final implementation 4
schedule at this time. Carolina Power & Light Company will submit a schedule for final implementation in December 1984.
l Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs)
Carolina R)wer & Light Company submitted a procedures generation package in August 1983.
As ' stated 'in our April 15, 1983 submittal, training i
on this version of the E0Ps is expected to be completed in December 1983. As the SPDS, RG 1.97 requirements and DCRDR results are implemented, additional minor revisions to the E0Ps may be required. Carolina B)wer & Light Company will submit a schedule foc updating and training on the final E0Ps in December 1984.
Emergency Response Facilities With respect to emergency response facilities, CP&L is currently using interim facilities, which have functioned effectively during emergency i
69 '
D. B. Vassallo drills conducted in August 1981, April 1982, and Mcy 1983.
Carolina Power &
i Light Company commenced construction of permanent EOF /TSC f acilities in October 1982, at a location approved by NRC letter dated May 19, 1982.
Construction of the building is 95 perceni: complete, with completion of the building scheduled for December 1983. i% anticipate that communications, (except f or Emergency Response Facility Information System), security modifications, and training on these facilities will be completed by July 1984. A final implementation schedule f or the EOF /TSC, including ERFIS and training on that system, will be suicitted in December 1984.
If you have any f utther queations regarding this issim, please contact a member or our Nuclear Lice:.aing Staff.
Yours very truly, e
