Box 38 Buchanan, NY 10511-0308 NL-03-126 Page 1 of 2 ATTACHMENT 1 TO NL-03-126 Period Summary Report for Changes to Regulatory Commitments NL-03-126 Page 2 of 2 ATTACHMENT 1 COMMITMENT 2002-01 The original commitment stated: Continuation of the SSFA program with at least one SSFA to be performed per year.
REVOCATION/JUSTEFICATION The justification of revocation is: The NRC requested information regarding how Indian Point 2 is complying with the 50.54f Design Basis regulation in a letter submitted to Mr.
McGrath on 10/9/96. This letter listed approx. 5 separate questions that addressed how Indian Point 2 ensures the plant is operated within the design and licensing basis. Question
- 3 specifically asks what rationale does the licensee use to know that their systems, structures, and components are operated in accordance with the design basis. We responded to this question in the letter NL-97-016 under section 3.3 under how we control our design changes, assessments, walk downs, and additional initiatives. Under the assessment areas we discussed the commitment to complete one SSFA per year.
IP2 has currently completed 27 SSFA and 2 SSFI's, developed 24 Design Basis Documents, reviewed each statement in the UFSAR, and developed electronic databases to cover design basis information.
P2 has conducted training in the use of the electronic databases for the plant staff. P2 has developed a project for reconstituting the design basis of the plant through the design basis initiatives project.
COMMITMENT 2002-02 The original commitment stated: Update and/or develop design basis documents to include current design and licensing basis information. Due date 12/31/02.
REVISIONJUSTIFICATION The revised commitment states: Update/create Design Basis documents for AC power, Fire Protection, Cable Separation due date 12/31/2003.
The Justification for change is: Under the Design Basis Initiative, upgrade work is being done on the electrical and fire protection areas. It is more logical to upgrade/create the design basis documents for these areas after the basis itself is upgraded. Therefore this work will be performed in 2003 after the basis work is complete.
This information was included in a letter sent to the NRC from Entergy dated December 31, 2002.
