• Denotes those individuals present during the exit interview on October 7, 198 . Follow-up on Previous Inspection Findings (0 pen) Violation 267/8707-01: Radioactive Liquid Effluent Release - This item was discussed in NRC Inspection Report 50-267/87-07 and involved the ;

licensee's failure to perform the required radiological sampling prior to a liquid effluent release. During a routine licensee audit of the FSV Effluent Control and Meteorological programs (RWEF 87-01)'~on October 2, 1 1987, the. licensee determined that certain commitments made in Licensee Event Report (LER)87-004 and the licensee's response to the NRC Notice of i Violation (PSC letter P87163, dated May 7, 1987) were not implemented as committed to in the aforementioned correspondence. The commitments ;

involved revising the liquid waste release surveillance procedure !

(ESR 8.1.2 bcd-M) to more clearly define and control the different :

responsibilities involved in the liquid effluent release progra t However, the NRC inspector determined that FSV Health Physics personnel 1 had decided that revising the surveillance procedure was unnecessary to j ensure that future liquid releases would be properly sampled and analyzed,

1 but health physics had not informed the NRC or the FSV QA Department of their decision to change the commitments. This finding is considered s licensee self-identified proble This violation will remain open pending NRC review of the licenste's corrective action to QA Department Corrective Action Report 87-023 which addresses the concern regarding the closing of LER 87-004 and NRC Violation 267/8707-0 . Organization and Management Control (NRC Inspection Procedure 83722)

The NRC inspector reviewed the licensee's organizational structure and management controls involving radioactive waste (radwaste) operation The following specific program areas were reviewed:

. Audits'and Appraisals No violations or deviations were identifie . Training and Qualifications (NRC Inspection Procedure 83723)

The NRC inspector reviewed the licensee's training and qualifications for staff and contractor personnel involved in the liquid and gaseous radwaste effluent release program. The following specific program areas were reviewed:

. Personnel. Qualification Requirements

. INP0 Accreditation' Status

. Audits and Appraisals No violations or deviations were identifie . Liquids and Liquid Radwastes (NRC Inspection Procedure 84723)

The NRC inspector reviewed the licensee's liquid radwaste processing and release program. The following specific program areas were reviewed:

. Audits and Appraisals

. Changes to the Liquid Radwaste System

. Effluent Release Controls
