5.
Plant Operations Review (Unit 1 and 2)
The inspector periodically during the inspection interval reviewed shif t logs and operating records, including data sheets, instruirent traces, and records of equipment malfunctions. This review included control room logs, auxiliary logs, operating orders, standing orders, jumper logs and equipment tagout records. The inspector routinely observed operator alertness and demeanor during plant tours. During abnormal events, operator performance and response actions were observed and evaluated. The inspector conducted random off-hours inspections during the reporting interval to assure that operations and security remained at an acceptable level. Shift turnovers were observed to verify that they were conducted in accordance with approved licensee procedures.
6.
Plant Tours (Unit 1 and 2)
The inspector conducted plant tours periodically during the inspection interval to verify that monitoring equipment was recording as required, equipment was properly tagged, operations personnel were aware of plant conditions, and plant housekeeping efforts were adequate. The inspector also determined that appropriate radiation controls were properly estab-lished, critical clean areas were being controlled in accordance with procedures, excess equipment or material is stored properly and combustible material and debris were disposed of expeditiously.
During tours the inspector looked for the existence of unusal fluid leaks, piping vibrations, pipe hanger and seismic restraint settings, various valve and breaker posi-tions, equipment caution and danger tags and component positions, adequacy of fire fighting equipment, and instrument calibration dates. Some tours were conducted on backshif ts and weekends.
7.
Review of Nonroutine Events reported by the Licensee (Units 1 and 2)
The following licensee event reports (LERs) were reviewed for potential generic problems, to detect possible trends, and to determine whether corrective actions appeared appropriate.
Events which were reported immediately were also reviewed as they occurred to determine that technical specifications were being met and that public health and safety were of utmost consideration.

Technical Specification Compliance (Unit I and 2)
During this reporting inte rval, the inspector verified compliance with selected limiting conditions for operation (LCO's) and results of selected surveillance tests. These verifications we.re accomplished by direct obser-vation of monitoring instrumentation, valve positions, switch positions, and review of completed logs and records. The licensee's compliance with selected LCO action statements were reviewed on selected occurrences as i
they happened.
9.
Physical Protection The inspector verified by obervation and inter view during the reporting interval that measures taken to assure the physical protection of the
[
facility met current requirements. Areas inspected included the organi-zation of the security force, the establishment and maintenance of gates, doors and isolation zones in the proper condition, that access control and badging was proper, that search practices were appropriate, and that escorting i
and communications prccedures were followed. On December 1,1979, The inspector
observed pistol qualification training and drills at the licensee's onsite pistol range. Familiarization training with a 12 gauge shotgun was also conducted. The session was well organized and professionally conducted.
e 10.
Failure to Approve a Radiation Work Permit (RWP) (Unit 2)
,
On November 27,1979, during a routine inspection tour, the inspector noted that the head had been pulled on "F" filter demineralizer and that filter i
element retaining clips were being removed. An RWP was not posted at the work place as required by HNP 8008, Paragraph C.S.
The inspector then
located the RWP in a box in the health physics office.
It had not been l
approved as required by HNP 8008, Paragraph C.4, prior to the commencement
!
of work.
After notifying health physics personnel of the problem, the
inspector then proceeded to the control room and found that the shif t
foreman was unaware that work had commenced on the filter demineralizer (He
'
was aware it was tagged out). This item is the subject of the attached notice of violation to this report (366/79-41-01).
