2.
Plant Operations The inapector observed control room operations, reviewed applicable logs and conducted discussions with control operations personnel during December 1982. Operability status of selected safety-related systems was routinely verified.
Proper shift manning and oversight were also verified in accordance with Technical Specifications.
Tours of accessible plant areas in the turbine and auxiliary buildings were conducted. The inspector reviewed plant equipment conditions for proper operations and verified maintenance requests had been initiated
~
where appropriate.
Primary coolant system leakage into the safety injection header continued in December, resulting in increased level in the "B" and "D" safety injec-tion accum"lators, such that accumulator level or baron concentration specifications were occasionally not met.
Licensee actions to restore-accumulator parameters were considered appropriate in each instance.
The licensee has requested a re"isior,to the specifications involved from the NRC Division of Reactor Liccasing.

.
Plant housekeeping conditions were found to be exhibiting continued improvement.
Implementation of radiation protection controls and site security measures was routinely observed. One radwaste truck awaiting shipment was independently surveyed.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
3.
Monthly Surveillance Observation The inspector observed Technical Specifications required surveillance testing as listed below and verified that testing was performed in accordance with adequate procedures, that test instrumentation was calibrated, that limiting conditions for operation were met, that removal and restoration of the affected components were accomplished, that test results conformed with Technical Specifications and procedure requirements and were reviewed by personnel other than the individual directing the test, and that any deficiencies identified during the testing were properly reviewed and resolved by appropriate management personnel.
a.
MO-19 Inservice Test Procedure - Containment Spray Pump b.
MC-ll Safeguards Boron Sampling
"B" Safety Injection Tank c.
MO-20 Inservice Test Procedure - Charging Pump The inspector also reviewed approximately 25 completed surveillance test packages performed for November 1982.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
4.
Monthly Maintenance Observation
-
Station maintenance activities of safety related systems and components listed below were observed / reviewed to ascertain that they were conducted in accordaace with approved procedures, regulatoty guides and industry codes or standards and in conformance with Technical Specifiestions.
The following items were considered during this review: the limiting conditions for operation were met while components or systems were removed from service; approvals were obtained prior t o initiating the work; activi-ties were accomplished using approved procedures and were inspected as applicable; functional testing and/or calibrations were performed prior to returning components or systems to service; quality control records were maintained; activities were accomplished by qualified personnel;-
parts and materials used were properly certified; radiological controls were implemented; and, fire prevention controls were implemented. Work requests were reviewed to determine status of outstanding jobs and to assure that priority is assigned to safety related equipment maintenance which may affect system performance.

The following maintenance activities were observed / reviewed:
a.
Mechanical and electrical preventative maintenance for Diesel Generator 1-1 b.
Repair of fire protection alarm panel C-47
"B" charging pump seal repacking c.
d.
Diesel Generator 1-2 preventative maintenance Following completion of maintenance on the emergency diesel generators, the inspector verified that the systems had been returned to service properly.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
5.
Maintenance Records This inspection included a review of selected maintenance records to ascertain whether these maintenance activities on safety-related systems or components had been conducted in accordance with approved procedures, regulatory guides, and industry codes and standards and in conformance with the requirements of Technical Specifications. Proper implementation of administrative approval and review processes; use of procedures where applicable; inspection and functional testing activities; and document preparation, completion and retention were specifically examined.
The following maintenance packages were examined:
a.
MO 82-CIS-0042:
installation of sealant and rubber shims on personnel airlock door seals (SFC-82-132)
b.
MO 82-CRD-0050 (including Supplement 1):
replace autoclave gaskets on 21 control rod drive seal housings c.
MO 82-EPS-0012:
repair governor control to fuel rack assembly linkage for K-6A emergency diesel d.
MO 82-EPS-0025:
re-install thermocouple for temperature switch TS-1488 on emergency diesel lube oil temperature e.
MO 82-ESS-0090:
inspect accessible snubbers per procedure RM-42 (Bergen-Patterson 6" stroke)
f.
MO 8^-PCS-0028:
rebaild primary coolant pump shaft seal 661-N-0764 A few minor documentation deficiencies or questionable items were noted end discussed at tha Management Interview.
.
.
.
Technical content of several proceduras associated with 'the~ above maintenance activities, was evaluated. This included provisions for cleanliness control; inspection and hold points; testing requirements; return-to-service provisions; radiological hazards. considerations; parts-and materials use controls; and LCO adherence, as appropriate.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
6.
Procurement The inspector reviewed procurement and storage activities to ascertain whether the purchase of components, materials, and supplies used for safety related functions is in conformance with the licensee's approved procedures. Additionally, the inspector verified that non-conforming items are segregated, applicable preventative maintenance is performed and housekeeping and environmental requirements are met.
The following items were inspected, including inventory verification:
Receipt Inspection Number Description a.
71536 Item 2 chemicals b.
77558 Item 1 3/4 to 1/2 stainless steel reducer c.
76537 Item 1 Solenoid Valve Coil

d.
1001-9877C-Q Valve Stem e.
91098-Q Itam 1 3/16 inch stainless steel weld rod f.
91098-Q Item 2 1/16 inch, stain 1ers steel weld rod g.
94316-Q Item 1 ball bearings h.
94316-Q Item 2 ball bearings 1.
97802-Q Item 1 plunger adapter J.
94316 Item 3 retaining ring The material balance form for Item j listed an inventory of 10 retainer rings, whereas the storaroom had 7 r2tainer rings on hand. A review of the purchase order identified a clerici: error when transposing the initial inventory from the receipt inspection documentatien to the
'
inventory sheet. This accounted for two of the retainer rings. 'This discrepancy in inventory was discussed with the Material Service Supervisor and noted at the Management Interview, No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
