SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATIOy RELATED TO LICENSEE RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 83-28 ITEMS 3.2.1 AND 3.2.2 POST-MAINTENANCE TESTING (ALL OTHER SR COMPONENTS)

COMMONWEALTH EDISON COMPANY BRAIDWOOD NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION DOCKET N0'5. 50-456 AND 50-457 Introduction Subsequent to the Anticipa.ted Transient Without Scram (ATWS) events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant, the Commission reviewed intermediate term actions to be taken by the licensees. The actions taken were developed on the basis of information contained in NUREG-1000 " Generic Implications of ATWS events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant." On July 8,1983, Generic letter (GL) 83-28 was issued by NRR. The letter identified NRC positions developed from review of the Salem ATWS events. These positions are related to reactor trip system reliabi-lity and general management capability. The specific GL 83-28 items covered by this Safety Evaluation are Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2, " Post-maintenance Testing (All Other Safety-Related Components)."

By letters dated February 29, 1984, and April 21, 1986, Commonwealth Edison Company responded to specific items of GL 83-28. The licensee summarized the results of the requested review and concluded that this item has been appropriately addressed.

Items 3.2.1 3.2.2, " Post-maintenance Testing (All Other Safety-Related Components)"

The review criteria for these items require that the licensee submit a statement indicating that he has reviewed plant test and maintenance procedures and Technical Specifications to ensure that post-maintenance operability testing of all safety-related components is required. Also, a statement is required that contains a verification that vendor recommended test guidance be reviewed, evaluated and where appropriate, included in the test and maintenance procedures or the Technical Specifications. The staff has evaluated the licensee's February 29, 1984, and April 21, 1986, submittals for this item and has determined it to be adequate in content.

Conclusion The staff concludes that the programs outlined in the licensee's submittals adequately address the requirements of Generic Letter 83-28 for the areas specified in this Safety Evaluation.
