Please provide the following:
The response to this RAI has been addressed as part a) Further information describing the maintenance and of the on-going NRC audit testing program the licensee will establish and process for Order EA-12-implement to ensure that regular testing and calibration 051.is performed and verified by inspection and audit to demonstrate conformance with design and system readiness requirements.
Please include a description of the plans for ensuring that necessary channel checks, functional tests, periodic calibration, and maintenance 18 will be conducted for the level measurement system and its supporting equipment.
b) Information describing compensatory actions when both channels are out-of order, and the implementation procedures.
c) Additional information describing expedited and compensatory actions in the maintenance procedure to address when one of the instrument channels cannot be restored to functional status within 90 days.7 Potential Interim Staff Evaluation (ISE) Impacts In the second Six Month Status Report letter (Reference 3), Dominion reported a change in the SFP Level Instrumentation vendor and reported conclusions of a comparison between the Westinghouse SFP Level Instrumentation design and the details that were previously provided to the staff and included in the ISE (Reference 5).
