memo were tested by driving them to 10 CPS (full scale) with a radiation source and they did not exhibit any evidence of saturation failure or down scale indication.
This test was being documented and records would be available for future inspections.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
9.
Environmental Protection - Implementation On March 6,1978, the licensee informed the Region V office that the San Clemente city well, one of the environmental sampling locations, had ceased operations.
During the inspection, it was determined that the San Clemente well will remain out of service permanently.
The licensee substituted a sample from a well at the San Clemente Ranch (formerly Highland Ranch). Appendix B, Technical Specification 3.2.3 specifies that drinking water samples will be collected at the Tri Cities, Huntington Beach and at a local well.
The change of the local well sample from San Clemente city to San Clemente Ranch does not represent a deviation from technical specification requirements.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
10.
Event Report Review

The cask, NAC-1C, was received on February 27, 1978 from G.E. Morris, Illinois.
The licensee reported that the carrier and the shipper had both been notified.
The contamination was highly localized and no spread of contamination had occurred.
The licensee decontaminated the cask prior to shipment.
The licensee's spent fuel shipping campaign has been completed.
Historically, the licensee made a total of 254 shipments,158 of them in NAC casks, beginning on March 13, 1976.
The licensee has reported rgceipt of NAC casks contaminated in excess of 22,000 dpm/100 cm a total of eleven times. Ten of the contaminated casks were received from G.E. Morris, Illinois. One of the casks was received from Chem Nuclear, Barnwell, S.C.
None of the occurrences resulted in any spread of contamination.

Operations-General Spent Fuel Shipmen In the period during which the inspection was conducted the plant was in the normal operating mode at full power (~450 MW) until Thursday March 6th when the rupture disc of the Pressurizer Relief Tank (PRT) was accidently blown out during a tank purging operation.
The facility was taken to hot shutdown for twelve to fifteen hours
'
to replace the rupture disc and return the PRT to operable ~ status.
This event was reported to Region V by the resident-inspector who would follow up on the item.
-
Spent Fuel movement and shipment operations were under way during the inspection.
Loaded fuel cask decontamination, A T testing, and licensee radiation monitoring surveys were observed by the inspector.
The radiation monitoring operations were discussed with radiation protection personnel and fuel shipment procedures were examined. A survey of radiation levels around the loaded shipping cask was made and levels noted confirmed those reported by the licensee.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
3.
Radioactive Waste Systems - Quality Assurance and Confirmatory Measurements Quality Control The licensee's program for quality control of analytical measurements has not undergone any major change in the past two years.
Laboratory procedures are reviewed internally under the standard SCE review and revision program.
Small revisions and changes have been made in laboratory procedures in response to changes in published standard chemical procedures and changes announced in ASTM publications.
