SUBJECT: HATCH NUCLEAR PLANT - TI 2515/171 VERIFICATION OF SITE SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION OF B.5.b PHASE 2 AND 3 MITIGATING STRATEGIES INSPECTION REPORT NO. 05000321/2008007 AND 05000366/2008007
Dear Mr. Madison:
On September 18, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a team inspection at your Hatch Nuclear Plant. The enclosed report documents the results of the inspection, which were discussed on September 18, 2008, with Mr. John Lewis and other members of your staff. The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to the implementation of B.5.b Phase 2 and 3 mitigating strategies, your compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations, and with the conditions of your operating license. Within these areas, the inspection involved examination of selected procedures and representative records, observations of activities, and interviews with personnel. Based on the results of the inspection, one NRC-identified finding of very low safety significance was identified. However, because this violation was of very low safety significance and because it was entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating the issue as a Non-Cited Violation in accordance with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC's Enforcement Policy. If you contest this NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Hatch.
