SUMMARY OF FINDINGS Inspection Summary

,

i Inspection on March 8-10 and 14-17, 1977, (Unit 1, 77-05), (Unit 2, 77-05),

and (Unit 3, 77- 05): Review of safety limits, limiting safety system

!

settings and limiting conditions for operations (Units 2 and 3).

Review i

of surveillance (Units 2 and 3), licensee event reports (Units 1, 2, and 3)

and HPCI valve internals inspection (Unit 2).

One item of noncompliance l

was identified, relating to record control (Unit 2).

Enforcement Items

Deficiency (Unit 2)

Contrary ~to Technical Specifications Section 6.5.A.1 the APRM No. I and No. 2 recorder chart for December,1976 was not available for review upon request. In general, the licensee's control of log books and recorder charts is inadequate in that any person has free access to these records with no access control provisions. The licensee's immedi-ate response appears adequate, requiring no further response.

Review of Safety Limits (SL), Limiting Safety System Settings (LSSS),

and Limiting Conditions (LCO) for Operations (Units 2 and 3)

[

a.

The following SL, L9SS, and LCO's were reviewed to determine t

the licensee's conformance with the Technical Specifications.

The review included direct observations, review of recorder i

charts, survei]L?nce requirement records, and equipment tagout

observation of the recirculating pump mismatch surveillance (Paragraph 2.b, Report Details). indicated that the observed error be: ween the recorded pump flow rates and indicated

pump speed appears to be in the flow recorder. There is

'

no record of calibration frequency on the flow recorder. A licensee representative stated that all calibration or

work accomplished on the flow recorder is accomplished by

work request.

In a previous inspection 1/ the inspector identified a non-

compliance relating to lack of calibration of those components

i discussed flow recorder is identifiable as the type of equipment the licensee was cigpd for not calibrating. The

_(

licensee's corrective-actionst is a commitment to prepare

'

-

and implement a calibration schedule for this equipment by

-

September 30, 1977. With respect to the recirculating pump flow recorder, no further action will be taken at this time.

c.

In reviewing the APRM recorder charts the inspector deter-mined the chart for APRM No. 1 and No. 2 for December, 1976 to be missing. An immediate search for the missing chart failed to locate it.

The licensec was informed that the lack of maintaining this record is contrary to Technical Specifications 6.5.A.l and is an item of noncompliance.

A licensee representative stated that the maintenance of historic log books and recorder charts will be bnmediately

,

controlled by requiring personnel to " sign out" for them and by keeping the logs and recorder charts under lock and key.

The inspector informed the licensee the noncompliance will require no further response.

Licensee Event Report Review (Units 1, 2, and 3)

e a.

The following licensee event reports were reviewed for proper

,

' reporting requirements, corrective action, licensee review

.

Unit 3 RO 50-249/76-28, Unit 3 250 Volt battery declared inoperative.

b.

With respect to RO 77-2 (Unit 1), 76-71 (Units 1, 2, and 3), and

'

77-2 (Unit 2) the inspector determined that the items had been identified, reported and corrected by the licensee. No further concerns were were identified by the inspector.

General l

On March 17 1977, during a Unit 2 maintenance outage the i

inspector observed a visual inspection of the hPCI discharge valve internals (Valve 1501-8), conducted by the licensee.

There were no apparent visual indications of severe damage i

to the valve body as a result o the bent stem problem 13,1976.jf

'

occurring on November Upon completion of repairs to valve 1501-8, the licensee will leave the valve locked open pending final resolution of a wiring problem, identified on the

,

identical valve in the Unit 3 HPCI system.
