| | ATTACHMENT A RESPONSE TO RII:RWW, 50-389/78-10 Findin 1: 2 Inch Tar et Rock Safet In ection Valve Deficienc The RII inspector noted that both CE and the RII had informed FPL of an excessive pressure drop with the subject valves, and that FPL appeared to incorrectly evaluate the incident as non-reportable, contrary to CE's conclusion that it indeed was reportable under 10 CFR 50.55(e). |
| | ~Res onse: |
| | Me wish to note that 10 CFR 50.55(e) clearly states that the holder of the construction permit is responsible for the determination of whether a construction incident is reportable, and not the NSSS vendor. FPL has used the assistance of a number of parties, including CE, in its determin-ation of the reportability of this item, but by no means does the opinion of an outside organization bind us to its conclusion. |
| | It appears that the major difference between RII and FPL, regarding the reportability of this " item, lies in the interpretation of the phrase in 10 500 50.55( 5(11(, ~iifl 5 fl 1 1 fl 1 d fg ." (5 dl added.) FPL's review of this problem concluded that the issue was a valid safety-related defect, but not a significant one; therefore, no reporting was required. This judgement is based on the fact that (1) the valves were not to be installed for sometime, (2) the problem was identified through normal gA channels (via CE), and (3) the repair was minor and easily performed without extensive evaluation or redesign. Based upon the above, FPL must take exception to the findings noted by the inspector. |
| | It is FPL's opinion that problems such as the above, identified and resolved through routine channels, are normal repair items typically encountered on a construction site. Due to the fact that safety-related equipment was involved, FPL invoked the evaluation procedures and maintained records of the resolution to ensure proper handling of the issue and compliance with the appropriate gA procedures. |

| | TTACHt<ENT A - RESPONSE TO RII:RWW, 50-389/78-10 Page 2 Findin 2: In ersol 1-Rand I-R Low Pressure Safet LPSI and Containment S ra Pum CSP Oeficienc The RII inspector noted that FPL knew of a problem with an impeller locking nut assembly working loose at one of its other plants (Turkey Point) in November 1975 and was informed by RII on August 23, 1978 of the potential deficiency as well. The inspector further states that despite "knowledge of this potential significant deficiency in final design" FPL failed to report the matter to the NRC in accord-ance with 10 CFR 50.55(e). |
| | ~ll 2: |
| | This issue arose from FPL's concern over a maintenance item. The Turkey Point problem was resolved by tack-welding the nut tight, and in 1975 FPL requested assurance from I-R that this or some other satisfactory method of securing the locknuts for pumps to be supplied for St. Lucie Unit 2 would be provided. At this time the pumps were not yet'manufac-tured. Me are attaching copies of our correspondence on this matter, which were not available to the inspector, which we believe will further clarify the issue. Our opinion on the significance of this item is the same as that for the finding above. This is a minor item, picked up by FPL's normal gA and preventative maintenance program and is non-reportable. |
| | Further, a deficiency either in final design or construction, has not been identified with the pumps supplied for Unit 2. Based upon the above, FPL must take exception to the finding noted by the inspector. |
| | FPL believes that utilities which use the experiences of other units to uncover and correct problems before they develop, as happened in these instances, should be corenended, and not found to be in blanket non-compliance with NRC reporting'procedures. Should RII disagree with our interpretation of "significant", we suggest that further discussion to clarify the issue may be appropriate. |

Dear Mr. Murphy:
Re: RII:RWW 50-389/78-10 Florida Power & Light Company has reviewed the subject inspection report and its response is contained in Attachment A. There is no proprietary information con-tained in the report.
Very truly yours,
~gj g.>> c Robert E. Uhrig Vice President REU:LLL:cf Attachment cc: Mr. James P. O'Reilly Office of Inspection and Enforcement Harold F. Reis, Esquire
1 I
ATTACHMENT A RESPONSE TO RII:RWW, 50-389/78-10 Findin 1: 2 Inch Tar et Rock Safet In ection Valve Deficienc The RII inspector noted that both CE and the RII had informed FPL of an excessive pressure drop with the subject valves, and that FPL appeared to incorrectly evaluate the incident as non-reportable, contrary to CE's conclusion that it indeed was reportable under 10 CFR 50.55(e).
~Res onse:
Me wish to note that 10 CFR 50.55(e) clearly states that the holder of the construction permit is responsible for the determination of whether a construction incident is reportable, and not the NSSS vendor. FPL has used the assistance of a number of parties, including CE, in its determin-ation of the reportability of this item, but by no means does the opinion of an outside organization bind us to its conclusion.
It appears that the major difference between RII and FPL, regarding the reportability of this " item, lies in the interpretation of the phrase in 10 500 50.55( 5(11(, ~iifl 5 fl 1 1 fl 1 d fg ." (5 dl added.) FPL's review of this problem concluded that the issue was a valid safety-related defect, but not a significant one; therefore, no reporting was required. This judgement is based on the fact that (1) the valves were not to be installed for sometime, (2) the problem was identified through normal gA channels (via CE), and (3) the repair was minor and easily performed without extensive evaluation or redesign. Based upon the above, FPL must take exception to the findings noted by the inspector.
It is FPL's opinion that problems such as the above, identified and resolved through routine channels, are normal repair items typically encountered on a construction site. Due to the fact that safety-related equipment was involved, FPL invoked the evaluation procedures and maintained records of the resolution to ensure proper handling of the issue and compliance with the appropriate gA procedures.
f> (f~pj>
TTACHt<ENT A - RESPONSE TO RII:RWW, 50-389/78-10 Page 2 Findin 2: In ersol 1-Rand I-R Low Pressure Safet LPSI and Containment S ra Pum CSP Oeficienc The RII inspector noted that FPL knew of a problem with an impeller locking nut assembly working loose at one of its other plants (Turkey Point) in November 1975 and was informed by RII on August 23, 1978 of the potential deficiency as well. The inspector further states that despite "knowledge of this potential significant deficiency in final design" FPL failed to report the matter to the NRC in accord-ance with 10 CFR 50.55(e).
~ll 2:
This issue arose from FPL's concern over a maintenance item. The Turkey Point problem was resolved by tack-welding the nut tight, and in 1975 FPL requested assurance from I-R that this or some other satisfactory method of securing the locknuts for pumps to be supplied for St. Lucie Unit 2 would be provided. At this time the pumps were not yet'manufac-tured. Me are attaching copies of our correspondence on this matter, which were not available to the inspector, which we believe will further clarify the issue. Our opinion on the significance of this item is the same as that for the finding above. This is a minor item, picked up by FPL's normal gA and preventative maintenance program and is non-reportable.
Further, a deficiency either in final design or construction, has not been identified with the pumps supplied for Unit 2. Based upon the above, FPL must take exception to the finding noted by the inspector.
FPL believes that utilities which use the experiences of other units to uncover and correct problems before they develop, as happened in these instances, should be corenended, and not found to be in blanket non-compliance with NRC reporting'procedures. Should RII disagree with our interpretation of "significant", we suggest that further discussion to clarify the issue may be appropriate.

F?L tack-welded the loc::nut assemblies to preclude the possibility of loosening.

Please obtain assurance from I-R that they vill provide loc'Inputs secured =y tack-welding or some other satisfactory method.
