CONFORMANCE TO ITEM 2.l PART 2 OF GENERIC LETTER 83-28 REACTOR TRIP SySTEM VENDOR INTERFACE COOK-1 AND -2 HADDAM NECK

l. INTRODUCTION l

On Duly 8, 1983, Gener1c Letter 83-28 was 1ssued by D. G. Eisenhut, Director of the Divis1on of L1cens1ng, Off1ce of Nuclear Reactor Regulat1on, to all licensees of operat1ng reactors, applicants for operat1ng 11censes, and holders of construct1on permits. This letter 1ncluded required act1ons based on gener1c implications of the Salem ATMS events. These requirements have been publ1shed 1n Volume 2 of NUREG-1000,

.2 "Gener1c Impl1cat1ons of ATWS Events at the Salem Nuclear Power Plant.'his report documents the EG&G Idaho, Inc. review of the subm1ttals of three of the blestinghouse plants, Cook-l and -2 and Haddam Neck, for conformance to Item 2.1 (Part 2) of Generic Letter 83-28. The subm1ttals from the licensees utilized in these evaluat1ons are referenced 1n Section 7 of this report.

2. REVIEW REgUIREHENTS Item 2.1 (Part 2) (Reactor Trip System Vendor Interface) requires licensees and applicants to establ1sh, 1mplement and ma1nta1n a continu1ng program to ensure that vendor 1nformat1on on Reactor Tr1p System (RTS) components 1s complete, current and controlled throughout the 11fe of the plant, and appropriately referenced or 1ncorporated in plant instructions and procedures. The vendor 1nterface program 1s to 1nclude perlod1c cemunications w1th vendors to assure that all applicable information has been received, as well as a system of posit1ve feedback with vendors for mailings conta1ning techn1cal 1nformation, e. g., licensee/applicant acknowledgement for receipt of technical information.

That part of the vendor interface program which ensures that vendor information on RTS components, once acqu1red, is appropriately controlled, referenced and 1ncorporated in plant 1nstruct1ons and procedures, w111 be evaluated as part of the rev1ew of Item 2.2 of the Generic Letter.

Because the Nuclear Steam System Supplier (NSSS) 1s ord1narily also the suppl1er of the ent1re RTS, the NSSS 1s also the principal source of 1nformation on the components of the RTS. Th1s rev1ew of the 11censee and appl1cant submittals w1ll:

I

l. Confirm that the licensee/appl1cant has 1dentified an 1nterface with e1ther the NSSS or w1th the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Tr1p System.

2. Conf1rm that the 1nterface 1dentified by 11censees/applicants 1ncludes per1od1c co@munication with the NSSS or with the vendors of each of the components of the Reactor Tr1p System.

3. Conf1rm that the interface 1dent1fied by l1censees/appl1cants 1ncludes system of positive feedback to conf1rm receipt of transm1ttals of technical 1nformation.

3. GROUP REVIEW RESULTS The relevant subm1ttals from each of the 1ncluded reactor plants were rev1ewed to determ1ne compl1ance w1th Item 2.1 (Part 2). F1rst, the subm1ttals from each plant were rev1ewed to establ1sh that Item 2.1 (Part 2) was spec1f1cally addressed. Second, the subm1ttals were evaluated to determ1ne the extent to wh1ch each of the plants compl1es w1th the staff gu1del1nes for Item 2.1 (Part 2).

4. REVIEW RESULTS FOR D. C. COOK-l AND -2 4.1 Eva lua t1on Indiana and Michigan Electric Company, the 11censee for D. C. Cook, provided their responses to Item 2.l (Part 2) of the Gener1c Letter on arch 30, 1984, Apr1l 10, 1985, and December 31, 1986. In those responses, the 11censee describes the D. C. Cook interface program establ1shed for the RTS.

The 1nterface program for the RTS descr1bed 1ncludes annual contact with each RTS.component vendor and a system of pos1t1ve feedback w1th the component vendors.

4.2 Conclusion We f1nd the program described 1n the l1censee's submittal for the 1nterface program for the RTS meets the staff pos1tion on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Generic Letter and 1s, therefore, acceptable.

5. RE VI EI4 RESULTS FOR HADOAH HECK

5. l E va lua t1on Connect1cut Yankee Atom1c Power Company, the 11censee for Haddam Neck, provided the1r responses to Item 2.l (Part 2) of the Gener1c Letter on November 8, 1983, and Harch 5, 1987. In those responses, the licensee conf1rms that the NSSS for Haddam Neck 1s Westinghouse and that the Reactor Trip System (RTS) for Haddam Neck 1s included as a part of the westinghouse interface program establ1shed for the Haddam Neck NSSS.

The Westinghouse 1nterface program for the NSSS includes both per 1odic comnunication between Westinghouse and licensees/appl1cants and posit1ve feedback from licensees/appl1cants 1n the form of signed rece1pts for technical informat1on transm1 tted by Westinghouse.

5. 2 Conc lus ion Me find the 11censee's conf1rming statement that Haddam Neck is a part1cipant in the Westinghouse 1nterface program for the RPS meets the staff pos1tion on Item 2.1 (Part 2) of the Gener1c Letter and is, therefore, acceptable.

v V

6. GROUP CONCLUSiON Me conclude that the 11censee/appl1cant responses for the 11sted West1nghouse plants for Item 4.5.2 of Gener1c Letter 83-28 are acceptable.
