4.8.1.1.3 Reports - All diesel generator failures, valid or nonvalid, shall be reported in a Special Report to the Commission pursuant to Specification 6.9.2 within 30 days.
Reports of diesel generator failures shall include the information recommended in Regulatory Position C.3.b of Regulatory Guide 1.108, Revision 1, August 1977. If the number of failures in th.e last 20 or 100 sterts (on a per diesel generator basis) exceeds the criteria in Table 4.8-1, take the appropriate action specified in Table 4.8-la and attachments thereto.

- Criteria for determining number of failures and number of valid tests shall be in accordance with Regulatory Position C.2.e of Regulatory Guide.l.108, Revision 1, August _1977, where the last 20 and 100 tests are determined on a per diesel generator basis.
For the purposes of this test schedule, only valid tests conducted after the Operating License issuance date shall be included in the computation of the "last 100 valid tests".
Entry into this test schedule shall be made at the 31 day test frequency.
Increased test frequency for one diesel generator shall not affect the test-frequency for the remaining diesel generator, even under the STAGGERED TEST BASIS criteria.
- This test frequency shall be maintained until seven consecutive failure-free demands have been performed and the number of failures in the last 20 valid demands has been reduced to one.
- For purposes of determining the required test frequency, the previous test failure count may be reduced to zero if a complete diesel overhaul to like new conditions is completed, provided that the overhaul, including appropriate post-maintenance operation and testing, is specifically approved by the manufacturer and if acceptable reliability has been demonstrated.
The reliability criterion shall be successful completion of 14 consecutive tests in a single series; 10 of these tests shall be in accordance with Surveillance Requirement 4.8.1.1.2a.4,5 and 4 of these tests shall include the fast loading requirement described in the double-asterisked (**) note to surveillance requirement 4.8.1.1.2a.5.
If this criterion is not satis-fied during the first series of tests, any alternate criterion used to trans-value the failure count to zero may only be implemented with prior approval by the NRC.

The supplemental report need only update the failure / demand his-tory for the affected diesel generator unit since the last repurt for that diesel generator.
The supplemental report shall also present an analysis of the failure (s) with a root cause determination, if possible, and shall delineate any further procedural, hardware or operational changes to be incorporated into the site diesel generator improvement program and the schedule for implementation of those changes.
t In addition to the above, submit a yearly data report on the diesel generator reliability.
(2) The diesel generator requalification program shall consist of the following:
(a) Perform seven consecutive successful demands without a failure within 30 days of the diesel generator being restored to operable status and
{
fourteen consecutive successful demands without a failure within 75
)
days of the diesel generator of being restored to operab% status.
(b) If a failure occurs during the first seven tests in the requalifica-tion test program, perform seven consecutive successful demands with-(
out an additional failure within 30 days of +.he diesel generator being restored to operable status and fourteen consecutive successful demands without a failure within 75 days of the diesel generator (see 2a) being restored to operable status.

(e) During requalification testing the diesel generator should not be tested more frequently than at 24-hour intervals.
After a diesel generator has been successfully requalified, subsequent repeated.requalification tests will not be required for that diesel generator under the following conditions:
(f) The number of failures in the last 20 valid de'mands is less than 5.
(g) The number of failures in the last 100 valid demands is less than 11.
(h) In the event that following successful requalification of a diesel generator, the number of failures is still in excess of the remedial action criteria (f and/or g above) the following exception will be allowed until the diesel generator is no longer in violation of the remedial action criteria (f and/or g above).
Requalification testing will not be required provided that after each valid demand the number of failures in the last 20 and/or 100 valid demands has not increased.
Once the diesel generator is.no longer in violation of the remedial action criteria above, the provisions of those criteria alone j
