RESPONSE TO INSPECTION REPORT 86015 Inspection Report 86015 dated January 5, 1987, transmitted one violation which requires a response by February 4, 1987. The following is our response to that item.
VIOLATION (155/86015)
As a result of the inspection conducted on December 8-12, 1986, and in accor-dance with 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C - General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions (1985), the following violation was identified:
10 CFR 50.54(t) requires that nuclear power reactor licensees review their emergency preparedness program at least every 12 months. The part of the review involving the evaluation for adequacy of interface with state and local governments shall be made available to the appropriate state and local govern-ments. The results of the review, along with recommendations for improve-ments, shall be documented, reported to the licensee's corporate and plant management, and retained for a period of five years.
Contrary to the above, the licensee did not make available to state and local governments that portion of the annual review of the adequacy of the interface with state and local governments.
In addition, documentation of this portion of the review was unavailable; and therefore it could not be reported to the licensee's corporate and plant management, and retained for a period of five years.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement VIII).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each violation:
(1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid OC0187-0014-NLO2 8702090191 870204 0f gDR ADOCK 05000155 PDR g,[g

RESPONSE
Corrective Actions Taken And Results Achieved The Nuclear Operations Quality Assurance Department will conduct a s.urveil-lance, in the first quarter of 1987, of the adequacy of state and local i
interface at Big Rock Point; has revised the Two-Year Internal Audit Plan to require one audit of the emergency planning programs at Big Rock Point, r
Palisades and General Office (in the past, such an audit was part of another audit visit and done separately at each location); and develop permanent checklist items for that audit that specifically address state and local interface from each location.
Corrective Action To Be Taken To Avoid Further Noncompliance General Offf ce Emergency Planning (which is responsible for the conduct of the j
annual Independent Review) is in the process of revising its Administrative Procedure (GOEP 8) to ensure applienble portions of the independent review package are made available to both state and local governments. On January 9, 1987, letters were sent to local units of government regarding the availabil-ity of the Big Rock Point package. The State of Michigan received that package on December 10, 1986. That procedure is being revised to require the reviewing organization to finalize and send the formal report within two weeks of the audit to the group being reviewed. The working checklist is being reviewed with Detroit Edison for possible revisions.
Furthermore, the working agreement between Consumers Power Company, Detroit Edison and Indiana & Michigan is being revised to reflect the aforementioned i
j procedure revisions and the decision by Indiana & Michigan to withdraw from l
the working agreement.

Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved
{
Consumers Power plans to have the procedure and working agreement revised by March 31, 1987.
