Section 3.2.1 of the License Application requires that the following safety related systems and components will receive programmed i maintenance: 1) air compressors; 2) emergency electrical generators; '
- 3) fire detection and fire control; 4) natural gas valves: 5) nuclear i criticality detection: 6) pellet carts; 7) pressure relief valves; and ;
- 8) steam boilers.
Section 1.4 of the License Application stipulates that when a '
measurement, surveillance, and/or other frequency is specified in License documents, the following applies: QUARTERLY frequency means four per year, with each covering a span of 115 days or less.
Maintenance and Calibration Operating Procedure Number MCP-108000, Revision 2, dated October 21, 1993, requires in Section 4.7 that maintenance engineering enter all preventive maintenance (PM) procedures and revisions into MAPCON and requires in Section 4.6 that crafts personnel perform preventive maintenance per work orders generated by
