Gentlemen:

SUBJECT:

Request for Additional Information Concerning Clarification of Response to Notice of Violation 285/8837-01 Omaha Public Power District (0 PPD) responded to Notice of Violation 285/8837-01, Failure to Maintain Traceability of Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) in Reference 3.

Reference 4 requested additional information needed to clarify our response. As stated in our response, OPPD based the conclusion that the conditions identified by the inspector were isolated events on prior reviews and interviews with individuals involved in use of M&TE.

OPPD had no evidence to the contrary at that time.

In Reference 5, OPPD committed to the review of 50 Surveillance Tests conducted between the dates of January 1988 and October 1988 to verify that test equipment used was properly calibrated and recorded in the Instrument and Control (I&C) shop logs, and to confirm that the cases identified were isolated.

In accordance with Reference 5, OPPD has completed its initial review of Surveillance Tests.

Contrary to the initial indication that this was an isolated case the review showed that addi+'onal measures need to be taken to ensure traceability of M&TE.

In response to this finding, and concurrent with other previously made commitments, OPPD developed a review plan to determine the scope of this problem as follows:

Review M&TE Deficiency Reports D.

Review M&TE Procedures E.

Conduct interviews with Technicians from the Instrumentation and Control (I&C) group

.This plan will allow OPPD to determine the scope of the. problem and additionally the plan will be used as a basis for defining the corrective actions required to prevent recurrence.

After completion of the plan, and when the extent of the problem is known, OPPD will forward the identified corrective actions, along with a schedule for completion to the NRC. This will be submitted by June 15, 1989.

Pending the outcome of this review, OPPD has instituted the following compensatory actions:

A.

B.

Wrote and posted a memo to Instrumentation and Control (I&C) personnel specifying the logout of all'M&TE equi) ment.

C.

D.

Please contact us if you have any questions concerning this matter.
