GENERIC LETTER 83-28 SCHEDULE FOR PROVIDING ADDITICNAL INFORMATION Our letter dated October 2, 1985 (Serial No. 85-494A) responded to your request for additional information for Generic Letter 83-28, Items 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.2.1, and 3.2.2.

In response to Item 3.1.2, we indicated that approximately 800 procedures would require additional review to assure that previous vendor and engineering recommendations have been incleded for the reactor trip system. In reassessing our commitment, we determined that only approximately 75 working level procedures applied to Item 3.1.2.

The enclosure to this letter provides a revised response and corresponding commitment date for Item 3.1.2.

ENCLOSURE i

4 Item 3.1.2 The licensee does not state whether a review was made of test and maintenance procedures for other safety-related components in the RTS to verify that appropriate vendor and engineering information was included in the procedures. It is concluded from the response and from discussion with plant personnel that only new and revised vendor information will be reviewed and evaluated for incorporation into plant procedures. The Generic Letter is quite specific in this area in that it states in part that, " licensees shall submit the results of their check of vendor and engineering recommendations to ensure that any appropriate test guidance is included in the test and maintenance procedures or the Technical Specifications." However, the response does not address the adequacy of current (in use) procedures which are developed from older vendor and engineering recommendations.

The licensee needs to provide additional information on:

1) How VEPCO's administrative procedures ensure that all previous vendor and engineering recommendations were appropriately incorporated into test and maintenance procedures or Technical Specifications.
2) The results of VEPCO's check to determine if vendor and engineering recommendations have been included in current test and maintenance procedures.

Virginia Electric and Power Company Response k'e have determined that approximately 75 North Anna working level procedures will require additional review to assure that vendor and engineering recommendations have been included into current plant procedures.

In addition, the Instrument Department has reviewed the vendor and ungineering recommendations pertaining to components in the reactor trip system and the appropriate recommendations have been incorporated into procedures.

A review will be per formed to ensure that previous vendor and engineering recommendations are included in test and maintenance procedures, where applicable. The procedure review and necessary procedure revisions will be completed by July 1,1986.

To ensure that previous vendor and engineering recommendations will be l

included in test and maintenance procedures, we will revise our administrative ; _ocedure, for processing of new and revised procedures.

l This procedure revision will have a step to acknowledge that a review of vendor and engineering recommendations has been performed.

This procedure revision will be implemented by November 1,1985, i
