Enforcement Conference An enforcement conference was held in the NRC Region III office on January 8,
1993.
This conference was conducted as.a result of the preliminary findings of the inspection conducted on December 3 through 18, 1992, in which apparent violations of NRC regulations and license conditions were identified.
Inspection findings are documented in Inspection Report No. 50-315/92022; 50-316/92022, transmitted to the licensee by letter dated December 31, 1992.
The purpose of this conference was to (1) discuss the apparent violations, causes, and the licensee's corrective actions; (2) discuss
several areas of concern; (3) determine if there were any escalating or mitigating circumstances; and (4) obtain any information which would help determine the appropriate enforcement action.
The licensee's representatives did not contest any of the apparent violations and were in agreement with the NRC's understanding of the areas of concern.
However, with regard to Violation 50-316/92022-03, the licensee's representatives and the NRC agreed that failure to identify and correct the adverse trend of lube oil inventory for the Unit 2 "AB" emergency diesel generator (EDG) was a root cause of the EDG lube oil trip.
Failure to correct the before and after pump seal
~
leakage was a contributing cause.
Therefore,.the NRC will utilize the failure to correct the adverse trend of lube oil inventory as its basis for consideration of enforcement action for this apparent violation.
The licensee's representatives described the events which led to the apparent violations, including root causes and corrective actions taken and planned.
A summary of the licensee's corrective actions is included in pages 41 through 43 of the attached handout that the licensee provided at the conference.
Included among these were immediate actions to restore operability of the 2 "AB" EDG and verify operability of the other EDGs..
Also included were longer-term actions to review/revise procedures, provide additional guidance to personnel for performance of tours, review the work request process, perform an engineering review of the lube oil gauge design adequacy, review other level gauge installations, and increase the frequency and scope of level alarm
'operational checks.
The licensee also addressed the safety significance of the EDG inoperability.
At the concl'usion of the meeting, the licensee was informed that they would be notified in the near future of the final enforcement action.
