Concerning Notice of Deviation

Enclosed is Commonwealth Edison's (Comed's) response to the Notice of Deviation transmitted

with the referenced letter. The report cited a deviation conceming the failure to develop or

implement a procedure to trend and analyze Residual Heat Removal (RHR) room cooler

differential pressures.

This letter contains the following commitment:

1) An administrative procedure will be implemented to describe the trending and analyzing of

cooling water differential pressure from all the ECCS Room Coolers and the Diesel

l

Generator Cooling Water Pump Cubicle Coolers. l

If there are any questions conceming this response, please contact Mr. Charles Peterson,

! STATEMENT OF DEVIATION (NRC IR 96-015-01):

!

,

NOTICE OF DEVIATION

During an NRC inspection ' conducted on October I through November 6,1996, a deviation of your actions

committed to in Licensee Event Reports 50-254/92008 and 50-265/92007 was identified. In accordance

with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Acti ons," NUREG-1600, the

deviation is listed below

i

.

Quad Cities Licensee Event Reports 50-254/92008 and 50-265/92007, dated April 8, and April 5,

1992, respectively, included a commitment to develop a procedure to trend and analyze Residual

Heat Removal (RHR) room cooler cocling water differential pressure.

t

. Contrary to the above, on October 3,1996, the inspectors identified that although a procedure to

measure RHR room cooler cooling water differential pressures had been developed and j

,

implemented, a procedure to trend and analyze these differential pressures had not been developed j

j or implemerted. ,

i REASON FOR DEVIATION:

i

Quad Cities Station acknowledges the violation for failure to develop a procedure to trend and analyze l

,

! Room Cooler cooling water differential pressures. De cause of the event was Change Management. Root

Cause Investigation Reports written in the timeframe of the above mentioned Licensee Event Reports did

not always enter corrective actions into the Nuclear Tracking System (NTS). In this case a NTS item was

i not generated to track completion of this trending procedure. Other potential problems with commitments

,

to Generic Letter 89-13 are being reviewed.

.

.,

ACTIONS TAKEN:

1. RilR room cooling water differential pressure data was reviewed and evaluated as being acceptable.

Problem Identification Form (P!F) 96-2849 was written to document the lack of proper trending of the

'

j

2.  !

'

ECCS Room Cooler cooling water differential pressures.

,

3. A five year back review was done in 1995 of NRC documents to assure committed corrective actions l

'

were either completed or tracked for completion. His item was believed to be covered under an

'

Operating Surveillance, so it was not identified as an incomplete corrective action at that time. Since

i 1995, all incomplete corrective actions are completed. This process is established by the QCAP 2300

block of procedures.

4. A predefine notification has been put into the Electronic Work Control System (EWCS) to notify the

System Engineer when new data has been recorded on the RHR Room Cooler Differential Pressure.

ACTIONS TO PREVENT FURTHER OCCURRENCE:

1. An administrative procedure will be implemented to describe the trending and analyzing of cooling

water differential pressore data from all the ECCS Room Coolers and the Diesel Generator Cooling

Water Pump Cubicle Coolers. This procedure will be implemented by the System Engheer by May 1, l

1997. (NTS # 254-100-96-01501.0l)  ;

i

DATE WHEN FULL COMPLIANCE WILL BE MET:

All corrective actions will be completed by May 1,1997.
