Enclosure I Page 1 of 2 Response to Request for Additional Information Cooper Nuclear Station (FSAR Amendment 39) 6A.

Item 6 was apparently not clear.

The item was meant to question the change from " audits and inspections" to " management overviews," not to question the organizations involved.

Please clarify by either reverting to " audits and inspections" or provide a description of " management overviews."

Response

The phrase " audits and inspections" will be reinserted in place of

" management overviews" in Section 2.2.

14A.

It is the staff position that the TIP should be under the Appendix B quality assurance program because, among other things, proper operation of the TIP is required to assure that the CNS is operating within safety limits established by the Technical Specifications.

Otherwise the response to item 14 is acceptable. Please reinstate the TIP in Table 1 or provide further justification for not doing so for our assessment.

Response

The TIP will be rainstated in Table 1.

15A.

The response to item 15 is not clear.

Please indicate the proposed wording for both the top of page D-9-52 and the bottom of page D-9-75 as questioned in the original item.

Response

(1) The words " Table 1" in Section 3.2.4 will be changed to read "Section 4.1.3".

(2) The word " file" will be reinstated in the third paragraph of section 6.0.

This word was inadvertently removed during document revision.

18A.

The ultimate response to item 18 (that the language and commitments stated in approved Amendment 37 have been reinstated) is acceptable.

However, we disagree with the first paragraph of the response.

It is the staff position that the CNS QA Program does include the QC activities at CNS, based on the introduction to Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50.

Please eliminate the first paragraph of the response or provide justification for not'doing so for our assessment.

Enclosure I Page 2 of 2

Response

NPPD concurs with the NRC "Staf f Position" that the CNS QA Program does include the QC activities of CNS, therefore, the first paragraph j

of our previous response should be considered deleted.
