Dear Mr. Denise:

The purpose of this letter is to provide, as was indicated in the Reference, Kansas Gas and Electric Company's plans for resolution of the pressurizer power operated relief valves (PORVs) preoperational test discrepancies.

The failure of the pressurizer PORVs to close as required during performance of a portion of their preoperational test is an outstanding test discrepancy. The pressurizer preoperational test (SU3-BB13) will be closed with outstanding test discrepancies which will be resolved after fuel load but prior to initial criticality through the use of an Operations Special Procedure written for testing of the PORVs.

After fuel load the valve surveillance required by the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS) Technical Specifications will be performed.

Upon successful completion of this surveillance test, the plant will j be brought to the appropriate temperature and pressure, at which time  !

the Special Procedure for testing can be completed. This special I Procedure will entall all steps of the preoperational test necessary 1 to resolve the existihg test discrepancies. This will include a test i of the automatic actuation function and the extended blowdown function )

of these valves.
