.SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT (SQN) - REPLACEMENT ITEMS PROGRAM (RIP) SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAM PLAN In response to a letter from S. D. Richardson to S. A. White dated May 25, 1988, 1 am providing the implementation schedulo for the RIP supplemental program plan. As indicated in the implementation schedule provided as enclosure 1, the warehouse review of items related to 10 CFR 50.49 and seismic sensitive items within the restart phaso of the Design Baselino and Verification Program (DBVP) is complete.

As discussed with George Hubbard, of your staff, on July 20, 1988, many of the elements of the supplemental program plan have been implemented with soveral being completed.

Evaluation of unit 1 to the condition adverse to quality reports (CAQRs) f %3t were written against unit 2 for lack of sufficiently dedicating items related to 10 CFR 50.49 has been completed, and required corrective actions have been identified.

Another element of the program plan that has been implemented is the preengineered item speelfication (PEIS).

This is an ongoing activity.

The warehouse evaluation of all stock items related to 10 CFR 50.49 is complete. With respect to the warehouco inventory of seismic-sensitivo items, SQN has completed a large samplo of items and has found no instances where seismic qualification has been degraded.

This large sample, in addition to the extensive review effort of work requests reviewed for unit 2 restart, provides assurance that seismic qualification of systems within the restart phase of unit 1 DBVP has not been degraded as a result of replacement activity. Thereforo, as discussed with Mr. Hubbard, TVA propcsos that thin element of the program plan is complete. provides additional information demonstrating completion of this activity.

Tho Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard 344/1975 review of seismic-sensitive items is scheduled to start in October 1988 and should be complete by May 31, 1989. However, TVA has committed this item to g7 be completed by tho end of cycle 4 for each unit.

. - IJ.'S, Nuclear Regulatory Commission AUB 101988 in summary, the implementation schedule for the RIP supplemental program plan has ensured that items related to 10 CFR 50.49 and seismic-sensitive items within the restart phase of DBVP systems have been sufficiently addressed for restart of unit 1.

The scheduto change of this response was discussed with J. H. Donohow on July 1, 1988.

If you have any questions, please telephone M. A. Cooper at (615) 870-6549.

Very ttvly yours, TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY

  • See enclosure 2 for information on completion of this item.

T' ENCLOSURE 2 INFORMATION DEMONSTRAT1HG COMPLETION OF UNIT 1 SEISMIC EVALUATION FOR RESTART The large review effort for unit 2 restart and subsequent warehouse evaluation activities have resulted in no instances where seismic qualification of safety-related equipment has been degraded.

This provides assurance that seismic qualification of systems within the restart phase of unit 1 DBVP has not been degraded as a result of coplacement item activity.

For unit 2 restart, more than 13,000 maintenance requests (that replaced material in unit 2 and common DBVP systems) and an additional 10,000 material issuance requests were evaluated for seismic impact. No instances were found where selsmic qualification of equipment was degraded.

As documented in the supplemental program plan, 93 percent of the material evaluated originated in the warehouse. Because the warehouse is common to both SQN units, the results of the unit 2 restart ef fort are applicable to unit 1.

Since February 1988, all Quality Assurance (QA) Level II (items purchased au commercial grado) material issues to the plant have been evaluated.

Combined with the ongoing procurement dedication activity, this has resulted in the evaluation of about 3,500 of 5,500 QA Level 11 warehouse inventory items with issuance history. No instances have been found where the seismic qualification of safety-related equipment was degraded.
