Preoperational Test Program Implementation / Verification - Unit 2 (70302)(71302)

The inspector reviewed the present implementation of the preoperational test program. Test program attributes inspected included review of administrativerequirements,documentcontro:,documer.tationofmajortest events and deviations to procedures, operating practices, instrumentation calibrations, and correction of problems revealed by testin Periodic inspections were conducted of control room operations to assess plant condition and conduct of shift personnel. The inspector observed that control room operations were being conducted in an orderly and professional manne Shif t personnel were knowledgeable of plant conditions, i.e., ongoing testing, systems / equipment in or out of service, and alarm / annunciator status. In addition, the inspector observed shif t turnovers on various occasions to verify the continuity of plant testing, operational problems and other pertinent plant information during the turnovers. Control Room logs were reviewed and variour. entries were discussed with operations personne Periodic facility tours were made to assess equipment and plant conditions, maintenance and preoperational activities in progres Schedules for program completion and progress reports were routinely monitore Discussions were held with responsible personnel, as they were available, to determine their knowledge of the preoperational program. The Inspector reviewed numerous operation deviation reports to determine if requirements were met in the area' of documentation, action to resolve, justification, corrective action and approvals. Specific inspections conducted are listed below:

1 Inspection To Datermine Compliance With ATWS Rule,10 CFR 50.62 -

l (T125020)

This inspection was to determine that ATWS mitigating systems that are not safety related comply with the 10 CFR 50.62 rule and that the effectiveness of the QA controls applied to major activities (design, procurement, installation, and testing), for ATWS equipment that is not safety related complies with Generic Letter 85-06, "QA Guidance for ATWS Equipment That Is Not Safety Related," and to assess the operational readiness of ATWS equipment that is not safety relate Georgia Power submitted on July 30, 1987, their proposal pursuant to the role. This letter states that the system being installed was submitted to the NRC in WCAP-10858P-A, "ASMAC Generic Design Package" and was approved in an NRC Safety Evaluation Report dated July 17, 198 The letter then providea the site specific informatio Georgia Power has selected and will implement an ATWS Hitigating Systems Actuation Circuitry (AMSAC) logic which detects a loss of heatsink by monitoring the feedwater flow to each of the steam generators. This actuation logic incorporates an automatic arming and block circuitry based upon turbine load by monitoring the first-stage turbine impulse chamber pressur These signal, referred to as the C-20 signal, block AMSAC utuation at low power levels to prevent spurious trip during plant startup The inspector reviewed the material purchase requ'sition PARVAR-10 dated ' 7tember 23, 198 This requisition specifies quality requirements of : t order are subject to 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Controls, ANSI Nb.< 2 Level B storage requirements, and the AP. SAC cabinet and subassemblies qualifies to IEEE 297 The Unit 2 installation has been completed and preoperational testing remains. The inspection included examination of the installed equipment and control panel alarms.

Further inspection requirements may result when issued, No violations or deviations were identifie . Manigement Meetings - (307C?)

This activity involves inspector participation and preparation in support of the following meeting which presented site readines The resident inspector attended a meeting held with the NRC staff and the licensee at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant.
