AUG 141978 Docket Nos. 50-03 @ Consolidated Edison Company of }E FILE COPY New York, Inc.
ATTN: Mr. W. J. Cahill, Jr.
Vice President 4 Irving Place New York, New York 10003 Gentlemen: Subject: Inspection 50-03/78-09 and 50-247/78-25 This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. J. White and G. Yuhas of this office on July 11-14, 1978, at Indian Point Nuclear Generating Units 1 and 2, Buchanan, New York, of activities authorized by,NRC License Nos. DPR-5 and DPR-26, and to the discussions of our findings held by Mr. White with Mr. W. Monti and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection, and to a subsequent telephone discussion between Mr. P. Knapp of this office and Messrs. W. Monti and C. Jackson of your staff on July 28, 1978.
Areas examined during this inspec' ion are described in the Office of t Inspection and Enforcement Inspection Report which is enclosed with this letter.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative recordst interviews with personnel, measurements made by the inspector, and observations by the inspector.
In addition, our inspectors reviewed your evaluation of the radiation exposure to three individuals relating to the subject covered in your letter to Mr. Paul R. Nelson, Chief, Fuel Facility and Materials Safety Branch, Region I, dated May 12, 1978.
Our inspectors' investigation of this occurrence did not show any basis for rejecting the belief that the film badge and thermoluminescent dosimeter actually received the dose exhibited, but did recognize that the available information did not fully support the fact that individuals A, B and C were actually subject to the indicated exposure.
Since the question remains, we understand from the referenced telephone discussion that you have elected to evaluate the individuals' exposure utilizing the film badge results, and will amend personnel exposure records and reports accordingly.
If our under-standing is not correct, please notify this office within 7 days.
