Response to NRC Concern Contained Within
Examination Report No. 50-412/88-06 (OL)
Gentlemen
By letter dated May 9, 1988, the NRC provided Duquesne Light
Company (DLC) with Examination Report No. 50-412/88-06 (OL). In the
letter the NRC expressed a concern stemming from DLC's comments on
the examination questions which relate to the Abnormai operating
Procedures (AOPs). The NRC requested that we review this issue and
provide a response regarding our policy and any actions planned to
resolve it.
It is stated in the May 9th letter that some AOPs appear to
require prompt operator actions and, therefore, should be memorized.
It was further noted that our AOPs identify no immediate actions,
only "manual" actions. We were requested to review our operational
practices and procedures and identify those time-dependent actions
needed to mitigate the consequences of the abnormal conditions for
inclusion in the AOPs. Through a review of Attachment 3 to the
May 9th letter, and the information immediately preceding the above
request, wo believe that two issues require a retponse: (1) the
identificacien of immediate manual actions in the AOPs, and (2) our
policy as to the operational practico concerning those actions.
Based on the above our response follows.
We are currently reviewing the AOPs to determine critical
time-dependent actions. The review is being performed for both the
Unit-2 and the Unit-1 AOPs. Af.ter this review is completed, the
changes identified will be reviewed and incorporated into the
operating manual. Based on the current status of the above actions,
we are scheduling them for completion by December 30, 1988.
L
Immediate manual actions identified and incorporated into the AOPs
i will be subject to the same operational philosochy as the immediate
jnnual actions in the Emergency Operating Procedures. Consequently,
th(y will require memorization.
