==Dear Mr. O'Reill.y:==
 
cr Carolina Power and Light Company (CP&L) has received and reviewed the
!            qubject report and provides the following response.                                      ,
A. Severity Level IV ' Violation - IER-82-37-13-SL4 Technical Specification 6.5.1.1.1 requires that procedures be established and implemented which meet the recommendations of Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2'        . Appendix A
;                requires equipment control and protection procedures for operations and maintenance affecting safety-related equipment. Administrative Ins tructions 11.6 and 4.1, Operating Procedure-7A, and Standing Order-9 implement these requirements. FSAR Section 1.3.4 states that the air start supply is independent for each emergency i                diesel generator.
l Contrary to the above, as of November 9,1982, these procedures had not been adequately established or implemented, in that the diesel generator air start air receiver discharge crossconnect valve was lef t open following activities associated with the "B" I                emergency diesel generator air compressor.

: 1. Admission or Denial of the Alleged Violation Carolina Power and Light Company acknowledges the alleged violation.
: 2. Reason for the Violation The diesel generator air receiver discharge crossconnect valve was usually controlled at the Auxiliary Operator (AO) level using the A0 logs as the controlling document.
DG-AS-10 was not included on an Operating Work Procedure and, therefore, would not have been included on a clearance of either air compressor / receiver. When either diesel generator air compressors or either air receiver were made inoperable, the Auxiliary Operator opened DG-AS-10 to provide stating air to both diesels and recorded his action into the A0 shift log. In this particular event, an entry on opening valve DG-AS-10 was not made in the A0 shif t log. The valve had probably been opened a few days earlier-when maintenance was performed on "B" emergency diesel air compressor and DG-AS-10 was inadvertently lef t open following this maintenance.
: 3. Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved Valve DG-AS-10 was closed immediately as d' rected by the Shif t Foreman. Operations personnel were interviewed to determine why the valve was open. It could not be determined by these interviews why valve DG-AS-10 was opened.
: 4. Corrective Steps That Will Be Taken to Avoid Further Violation Operating Work Procedures on equipment associated with this valve DG-AS-10 are being revised, as necessary, to include D G-A S-10. This will ensure positive control of DG-AS-10 and will properly document its repositioning for maintenance.
The importance of properly documenting the repositioning of safety-related equipment will be discussed with the Auxiliary Ope ra to rs .
: 5. Date When Full Compliance Will Be Achieved Discussions with the Auxiliary Operators will be completed b y Februa ry 28, 1983. The appropriate OWPs will be revised by April 30, 1983.

not been submitted for three instances of auxiliary feedwater flow i
indication inoperability occurring in September and October,1982.

I Deviation - I ER-82-37-07-DEV CP&L letter GD-28-231, Reactor Vesse1' Overpressure Protection Request for License Amendment, dated January 25, 1978, committed to installation of a low pressure alarm on the backup nitrogen system for the low
;        temperature overpressure protection system.
i l        Contrary to the above, as of November 1,1982, a low pressure alarm had j      not been installed on the backup nitrogen system.
 
===Response===
: 1. Corrective Actions That Will Be Taken A low pressure alarm on the backup nitrogen system for the low temperature overpressure protection system system will be installed during the next refueling outage presently scheduled' to begin in early 1984.
: 2. Corrective Actions Taken to Avoid Further Deviation A review of past correspondence from CP&L to the NRC has been initiated to verify that no additional commitments were missed. A system to audit regulatory commitments has been initiated by the Quality Assurance Group and the Corporate Nuclear Safety Group on site.

The review of past NRC correspondence is presently expected to be completed by July,1983. However, the total extent of this review will be determined by the review itself. If additional problems are identified, then the scope of the review will be expanded.
