PROTOCOL BETWEEN OSP AND NRR FOR THE TECHNICAL REVIEW OF THE COMANCHE PEAK FSAR The NRC staff is resuming the safety review of the Comanche Peak FSAR to support issuance of an operating license for those arrendments that are not a direct result of the Comanche Peak Corrective Action Program (CAP). In order to make the best use of available resources, the staff Offices of NRR and SP have agreed to coordinate and conduct the review as set forth below.

OSP has overall responsibilit/ for managing the review.

• OSP will provide a TAC number for each review branch to permit resource tracking.

• OSP is responsible for reviewing the FSAR and identifying all changcs that have occurred since 1985.

• OSP will screen these changes and identify those which are non-substantive, have no safety significance or which do not affect previous staff conclusions in the most recent SER.

• OSP will address as many of the remaining changes on the "action list" as possible.

• OSP will assemble comprehensive review packages for each review branch consisting of the action list FSAR changes, t01ated sections from the SER/SSERs, as well as related correspondence, including TV Electric's assessment of the safety significance of each c.".Fae.

• OSP will provide administrative and logistical support by notfcing and conducting necessary meetings, transmitting RAls and arranging for typing of SERs.

• OSP will generate monthly progress reports showing staff utilization in support of quarterly management reviews. Problems identified by OSP staff during the course of the FSAR technical review will be ad-dressed at these management meetings.

NRR will provide technical support by reviewing those few FSAR changes identified by OSP and preparing input to update the licensing SER.

• The assignr.ent of reviewers and schedule for SER production within NRR will be coordinated with OSP by designated NRR contacts. The OSP point of contact for scheduling and overall review policy is Jim Wilson. The NRR contacts are: DEST - Jim Norberg; DLPQ - John Zwolinski; DREP - Frank Congel.

• Because this effort only recuires an update to the SER, rather than a de novo review, once the action list of changes is identified, the Fe' view need only address the changes fr m the original staff review, 340 s80805 h[j8%OCK03000445 A

T Protocol Between OSP and NRR The reviews should be completed with one round of questions. To facilitate this goal OSP will conduct a meeting in each technical area after the this If necessary, reviewer has evaluated the comprehensive review package.

meeting would be followed by a set of questions to obtain additional, es-sential docketed information.

Wnere the previous review criteria cannot be easily determined, reviewers should use the most current SRP criteria.

TV Electric has agreed in principle to this approach, provided they have the opportunity to appeal backfitting on specific cases.

Should subsequent FSAR changes be docketed, OSP will screen them, develop a drop list and, if OSP lacks the recuisite technical expertise, assemble a review package and coordinate with the appropriate NRR point of contact for assignment of a reviewer and schedule.

The overall schedule for completing the Comanche Peak review is April 1989.

However, the review of certain areas that have a direct bearing on Technical Specification requirements or particularly sensitive issues should be completed by the end of the year. Special scheduling requirements will be arranged directly between the OSP and NRR contacts.
