Dear Mr. Madsen:

In accordance with 10 CFR 50.55(e), we are submitting the enclosed report of actions taken to correct a deficiency regarding the component cooling water system Class V piping.

Supporting documentation is available at the CPSES site for your Inspector's review.

Very truly yours, RJG:ln Enclosure cc: NRC Region IV - (0 + 1 copy) j Director, Inspection & Enforcement (15 copies)

-TXX-3690 Juns 21, 1983 COMPONENT COOLING WATER CLASS V PIPING DESCRIPTION OF THE DEFICIENCY During an unrelated engineering evaluation, non-safety related components were observed in the component cooling water system. The system configuration involves the cross operation of both safety trains. Failure of these components could deplete the surge tank disabling the system prior to operator action.

SAFETY ANALYSIS Had the deficiency gone undetected, the operability of the safety class component cooling water systeca could not be assured during and after a seismic event.

CORRECTIVE ACTION Controls will be added to the existing level transmitters in order to sense depletion of the surge tank. An empty signal will automatically isolate safe-guard loops. Also, non-safety related components in these loops will be upgraded to maintain seismic integrity of the system. No operator action will be required.

DATE OF IMPLEMENTION These modifications are currently scheduled to be complete August 1, 1983.
