CONFORMANCE TO ITEM 2.1 (PART 0) 0F GENERIC LETTER 83-28 i

REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM VENDOR INTERFACE HATCH-1 AND -2 MILLSTONE-1 1.

INTRODUCTION On July 8, 1983, Generic Letter 83-28 was issued by D. G. Eisenhut, f

i I

Director of the Division of Licensing, Office of Nuclear Reactor j

Regulation, to all licensees of operating reactors, applicants for I

operating licenses, and holders of construction permits. This letter l

included required actions based on generic implications of the Salem ATWS events. These requirements have been published in Volume 2 of NUREG-1000, j

" Generic Implications of ATWS Events at the S41em Nuclear Power Plant."2 l

1 i

j This report documents the EG&G Idaho, Inc. review of the submittals of j

three of the General Electric plants, Hatch-1 and -2 and M111 stone-1, for j

conformance to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of Generic Letter 83-28.

The submittals from the licensees and applicants utilized in these evaluations are j

referenced in Section 7 of this report.

REVIEW REQUIREMENTS Item 2.1 (Part 2) (Reactor Trip System - Vendor Interface) requires licensees and applicants to establish, implement and maintain a continuing program to ensure that vendor information on Reactor Trip System (RTS) components is complete, current and controlled throughout the life of the plant, and appropriately referenced or incorporated in plant instructions and procedures.

The vendor interface program is to include periodic communications with vendors to assure that all applicable information has been received, as well as a system of positive feedback with vendors for mailings containing technical information, e.g.,

licensee / applicant acknowledgement for receipt of technical information.

That part of the vendor interface program which ensures that vendor information on RTS components, once acquired, is appropriately controlled, referenced and incorporated in plant instructions and procedures, will be evaluated as part of the review of Item 2.2 of the Generic Letter.

Because the Nuclear Steam System Supplier (NSSS) is ordinarily also the supplier of the entire RTS, the NSSS is also the principal source of information on the components of the RTS.

This review of the licensee and applicant submittals will:

1.

Confirm that the licensee / applicant has identified an interface with either the NSSS or with the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Trip System.

2.

Confirm that the interface identified by licensees / applicants includes periodic communication with the NSSS or with the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Trip Systene.

3.

Confirm that the interface identified by licensees / applicants includes a system of positive feedback to confirm receipt of transmittals of technical information.

GROUP REVIEW RESULTS l

The relevant submittals from each of the included reactor plants were reviewed to determine compliance with Item 2.1 (Part 2).

First, the submittals from each plant were reviewed to establish that Item 2.1 (Part 2) was specifically addressed.

Second, the submittals were evaluated j

to determine the extent to which each of the plants complies with the staff guidelines for Item 2.1 (Part 2).

REVIEW RESULTS FOR HATCH-1 AND -2 l

j 4.1 Evaluation 1

Georgia Power, the licensee for Hatch-1 and

-2, provided their i

responses to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter on November 7, 1983, February 29, 1984, and June 3, 1983.

In those responses, the licensee I

confirms that the NSSS for Hatch-1 and -2 is General Electric and that the l

Reactor Protection System (RPS) for Hatch, which includes those components j

necessary to trip the reactor, is included as a part of the GE interface j

program established for the Hatch NSSS.

3 The GE interface program for the NSSS includes both periodic l

communication between GE and licensees / applicants and aperiodic communications such as " Service Information Letters" (SILs) containing j

information and recommendations concerning GE systems, and a system of

{

positive feedback from licensees / applicants in the form of signed receipts for SILs transmitted bl GE.

4.2 Conclusion i

We find the licensee's confirming statement that Hatch is a participant in the General Electric interface program for the RPS meets the staff position on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter and is, l

therefore, acceptable.

REVIEW RESULTS FOR MILLSTONE-1 5.1 Evaluation Northeast Utilities, the licensee for M111 stone-1, provided their respoase to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter on January 16, 1987.

In that response, the licensee confirms that the NSSS for Millstone-1 is General Electric and that the Reactor Protection System (RPS) for Millstone-1, which includes those components necessary to trip the reactor, is included as a part of the GE interface program established for the Millstone-1 NSSS.

The GE intc.' face program for the NSSS includes both periodic communication between GE and licensees / applicants and aperiodic communications such as " Service Information Letters" (SIls) containing information and recommendations concerning GE systems, and a system of positive feedback from licensees / applicants in the form of signed receipts for SILs transmitted by GE.

I 5.2 Conclusion We find the licensee's confirming statement that Millstone-1 is a participant in the General Electric interface program for the RPS meets the staff position on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter and is, therefore, acceptable.
