Item ?.1 (Part li Equipment Classification (Peactor Trip System Components)

Item P.1 (Part 1) requires applicants to confirr that all components wbese

. function is required to trip the reactor are identified es safety-related on documents, prncedures. and information handling systems used in the plant to control safety-related activities,' including naintenance, work orders, and parts replacement.

The licensee's sutanittals stated that the reactor trip system components fall within the scope of systems identified as "important-to-safety" which includes the reactor protection systen and the trip portion of the control rod drive system. Furthermore, the licensee stated that a review of a variety of documents such as plant surveillance procedures, maintenance procedures end work requests associated with reactor trip components indicates that a quality classificetion of important-to-safety or safety-related is identifieu.on each document.

Based on the licensee's submittals, the NPC staff detennines that all components to trip the reactor have not been identified as safety-related.

The licensee is requested to provide a discussion of how the licensee's program is equivalent to the staff position or specifically describe how their procran deviates from the staff position and include a justification for each deviation.

B.

Item ?.1 (Part ?) Vendor Interface Program and Feedback System u

Itsm 7.7.1 - Program The licensee's responses (see item 2.1 Part 1) do not confirm that all safety-related components are designated as safety-related on plant documents such as procedures, system descriptions, test and maintenance instructions, operating procedures, and in information handling systems so person'nel performing activities that affect such safety-related components are aware they are working on safety-related components and are guided by safety-related procedures and constraints.

The licensee is requested to provide a discussion of how their program is equivalent to the staff's position or describe how their program deviates from the staff position and include a,iustification for each deviation.

(?) Item ?.2.1 - Criteria For Identifyino Components-The licensee's response does not state whether the results of the study of the present classification program resulted in modifications to the equipment classification system.

The licensee needs to state whether review of the pouipment cl6ssification prooram has resulted in modifications to the program.

If so, the modifications should be described.
