APPLICANTS' SUPPLEMENTARY RESPONSES Neither the original interrogatories, nor Applicants' original responses have been reproduced. The following consists only of Applicants' supplementary responses.

Interrogatory 10-3:

Applicants,believe the following additional organizations to be knowledgeable concerning diesel generator reliability:

Management & Technical Services (MATS)

Division of Duke Power Company 422 South Church Street P. O. Box 33189 Charlotte, North Carolina 28242 Stone & Webster Engineering Corporation Boston, Massachusetts Impell Corporation 225 Broad Hollow Road Melville, New York 11747 Pacific Northwest Laboratory Richland, Washington 99352 Interrogatory 10-4:

The TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group Program provides an additional basis for Applicants' belief in the reliability of the Transamerica Delaval, Inc. ("TDI") diesel generators installed at PNPP.

e CEI has actively participated in this effort. The TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group Program Plan was reviewed by the NRC and a Safety Evaluation Report on the overall program was published on August 13, 1984. The NRC staff found that the Program Plan incorporated the essential elements needed to resolve the outstanding concerns relating to the reliability of the TDI diesel generators for nuclear service, and to ensure that the engines comply with GDC 1 and GDC 17. See BN-84-152.

Phase I of the Program, resolution of known, potentially generic problems, has already been completed. The fifteen final reports addressing each of the identified problems have been submitted to the NRC. Where applicable, PNPP has incorporated the recommendations of each of these documents into its TDI engine program. Phase II of the Program, the Design Review / Quality Revalidation ("DR/QR") effort has also been implemented at PNPP. The PNPP DR/QR Report has been completed, and was submitted to the NRC on January 17, 1985.

A detailed discussion of PNPP's participation in the Owners Group Program is contained in the PNPP TDI Diesel Generator Program Plan which was submitted to the NRC on January 17, 1985. Copies of the aforementioned reports are available for examination at PNPP.

The fact that the DSRV-16-4 TDI diesel engines installed at Comanche Peak (the " lead" engines for PNPP) have undergone considerable operational testing (750 hours0.00868 days <br />0.208 hours <br />0.00124 weeks <br />2.85375e-4 months <br />) without incident also provides a basis for Applicants' belief in the reliability

~

of the TDI diesel generators.

Interrogatory 10-8:

PNPP's DR/QR Program, conducted as part of the owners Group Program, provides additional assurance that the specifications for the TDI diesel generators in place at PNPP were met. See PNPP DR/QR Report and the PNPP TDI Diesel Generator Program Plan. These documents are available for examination at PNPP.

Interrogatory 10-16:

Further measures taken to assure quality of the design are detailed in the Owners Group Program Plan, the PNPP DR/QR Report, and the PNPP TDI Diesel Generator Program Plan. Each of these documents is available for examinativa at PNPP.

Interrogatory 10-21:

Information on the forging and machining of the crankshafts for the Unit 1 engines is contained in the PNPP DR/QR Report which is available for examination at PNPP.

Interrogatory 10-22:

(b) Information on connecting rod bearing shells is available in the Owners Group Report, " Design Review of Connecting Rod Bearing Shells for Transamerica Delaval Enterprise Engines," which is available for examination at PNPP. The Owners Group acceptance criteria on porosity for the connecting rod bearing shells in place at PNPP was verified as part of PNPP's DR/QR effort.

m (c) Non-destructive examination of the bearing shells was performed according to the Owners Group recommendations. j Results have not yet been compiled. See PNPP TDI Diesel Generator Program Plan, available for examination at PNPP.

Interrogatory 10-25:

Information on the recommended oil film presst re is contained in the Owners Group Report, " Design Review of Connecting Rod Bearing Shells for Transamerica Delaval Enterprise Engines," which is available for examination at PNPP.

Interogatory 10-26:
