EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Zion Nuclear Station NRC Inspection Report 050-00295/08-01(DNMS)
This routine decommissioning inspection focused on the evaluation of the licensees facility management and control, spent fuel safety, and radiological safety.
Facility Management and Control
! The inspector concluded that the licensee adequately implemented its audit and corrective action programs in accordance with the licensees Quality Assurance Program, and that the programs were consistent with NRC requirements. (Section 1.1)
! The inspector determined that the licensees process for evaluating the safety impacts of facility changes was in compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.59.
(Section 1.2)
Spent Fuel Safety The inspector determined that the licensee properly maintained the spent fuel pool water level, temperature, chemistry, cleanliness control, and criticality control to ensure the safe wet storage of the spent fuel. The inspector also determined that the licensee had adequately performed the functional tests to ensure that abnormal spent fuel pool conditions would be made known to the operators in a timely fashion.

2.0 Spent Fuel Safety 2.1 Spent Fuel Pool Safety (IP 60801)
a. Inspection Scope The inspector verified the safe wet storage of spent fuel in the fuel building. The review included spent fuel pool (SFP) instrumentation, alarms, cleanliness control, chemistry, criticality controls, and the results of the January 2008 through March 2008 spent fuel pool water temperatures, levels, and chemistry and gamma spectrum analyses. The inspector reviewed the records of functional tests of alarms to alert operating personnel by pager for: spent fuel pool high and low water level, high water temperature, fuel building high radiation, cooling tower pump trip, and abnormal fuel building ventilation system operation.
b. Observations and Findings The results of the analyses reviewed indicated that all parameters were within procedural limits. The licensee maintained the boron concentration in the spent fuel pool at approximately 2000 parts per million (ppm) versus the Technical Specifications limit of greater than 500 ppm. The licensees personnel were knowledgeable of spent fuel pool water analyses, and all analyses were performed in accordance with the required procedures.
The licensee had performed the monthly test of high radiation in the spent fuel pool area, and other annual functional tests to verify proper pager function in response to anticipated control room alarms affecting spent fuel pool safety. The licensees personnel were knowledgeable of all functional tests; and all tests were performed in accordance with the required procedures.
c. Conclusions The inspector determined that the licensee properly maintained the spent fuel pool water level, temperature, chemistry, cleanliness control, and criticality control to ensure the safe wet storage of the spent fuel. The inspector also determined that the licensee had adequately performed the functional tests to ensure that abnormal spent fuel pool conditions would be made known to the operators in a timely fashion.
3.0 Radiological Safety 3.1 Solid Radioactive Waste Management and Transportation of Radioactive Materials (86750)
a. Inspection Scope The inspector reviewed radioactive material shipping documents and conducted interviews of the responsible individual to ensure compliance with NRC and U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
b. Observations and Findings On February 18, 2008, the licensee made one excepted quantity radioactive material shipment of safety injection pump. The licensees shipping manifest showed that personnel packaged, labeled, and marked the shipping container according to the DOT and 10 CFR Part 71 transportation requirements. The licensee verified that the results of radiation and removable contamination levels were within applicable limits.
c. Conclusions The inspector determined that the licensee had complied with NRC and Department of Transportation regulations for shipments of radioactive materials.
3.2 Occupational Radiation Exposure (83750)
a. Inspection Scope The inspector reviewed the external dosimetry records for the second half of 2007. The inspector reviewed the general air sampling, direct radiation survey, and smear sample results from the Fuel Building and the Auxiliary Building from January 2008 to March 2008.
The inspector reviewed the radiation work permit and exposure records during the transfer of spent resin from spent fuel pool demineralizer to shipping cast.
b. Observations and Findings The highest dose received by the individuals was 77 mrem during the second half of 2007. The results of general area air sampling in the fuel and auxiliary buildings did not positively identify the presence of any licensed materials. The results of the routine quarterly surveys in the Fuel Building and the Auxiliary Building had not identified any significant removal contamination. Workers received doses less than the dose limits specified in radiation work permit.
c. Conclusions The inspector concluded that the licensee effectively monitored and controlled personnel exposures to radiation, and adequately controlled contamination.
