Persons Contacted
- T. Murray, Station Superintendent B. Beyer, Assistant Station Superintendent P. Carr, Maintenance Engineer S. Quennoz, Technical Engineer D. Miller, Operations Engineer D. Briden, Chemist and Health Physicist J. Hickey, Training Supervisor L. Simon, Operations Supervisor
- G. Daft, Operations QA Manager G. Grime, Nuclear Security Manager
- Denotes those present at the exit interviews on October 26, 1979.
The inspector also interviewed other licensee employees,- including members of the technical, operations, maintenance, I&C, training and health physics staff.
2.
Plant Operations The inspector reviewed the plant operations including examinations of control room log books, locked valve log book, shift foreman log
.
book, containment purge log, standing orders, and jumper and lif ted wire logs for the month of October. The inspector observed plant operation: during 4 offshifts during the month of October.
The inspector also made visual observations of the routine surveillance and functional tests in progress during the period.
This review was conducted to verify that facility operations were in conformance with the requirements established under Technical Specifications, 10 CFR, and Administrative Procedures. The inspector conducted a tour of the reactor building and turbine building throughout the period and noted that the monitoring instrumentation was recorded as required, radiation controls were properly establisFed, fluid leaks and pipe vibrations were minimal, seismic restraint oil levels appeared adequate, equipment caution and hold cards agreed with control room records, plant housekeeping conditions / cleanliness were adequate, and fire hazards were minimal. The inspector observed shift turnovers to verify that plant and component status and problem areas were being turned over to relieving shift personnel.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
3.
Physical Protection - Security Organization The inspector verified by observation and personnel interview that at least one full time member of the security organization who has the 1633 249-2-
authority to direct the physical security activities of the security
organization was onsite at all times; verified by observation that the security organization was properly manned for all shifts; and verified by observation that members of the security organization were capable of performing their assigned tasks.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were iden'.ified.
4.
Physical Protection - Physical Barriers The inspector verified that certain aspects of the physical barriers and isolation zones conformed to regulatory requirements and commit-ments in the physical security plan (PSP); that gates in the protected area were closed and locked if not attended; that doors in vital area barriers were closed and locked if not attended; and that isolation zones were free of visual obstructions and objects that could aid an intruder in penetrating the protected area.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
5.
Physical Protection - Access Control (Identificatior.,
Authorization, Badging, Search, and Escorting)
The inspector verified that all persons and packages were identified and authorization checked prior to entry into the protected area (PA), all vehicles were properly authorized prior to entry into a
.
PA, all persons authorized in the PA were issued and displayed identification badg~es, records of access authorized conformed to the PSP, and all personnel in vital areas were authorized access; verified that all persons, packages, and vehicles were searched in accordance to regulatory requirements, the PSP, and security procedures; verified that persons authorized escorted access were accompanied by an escort when within a PA or vital area; verified that vehicles autho-rized escorted access were accompanied by an escort when within the PA; and verified by review of the licensee's authorization document that the escort observed above was authorized to perform the escort function.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
6.
Physical Protection - Communications The inspector verified by observation that communications checks were conducted satisfactorily at the beginning of and at other pre-scribed time (s) during the security personnel work shift and that all fixed and roving posts, and each member of the response team successfully communicate from their remote location; and verified that equipment was operated consistent with requirements in the PSP and security procedures.

7.
Surveillance of Safety Related Systems / Components Required by Technical Specifications The inspector observed Technical Specifications required surveil-lance testing (other than calibrations and checks) on the diesel fire pump and verified that testing was performed in accordance with technically adequate procedures, that test results were in confcrmance with Technical Specifications and procedure requirements and were reviewed by personnel other than the individual directing the test, and that any deficiencies identified during testing were properly reviewed and resolved by appropriate management personnel.
The inspector deterrained that procedure ST 5016.12, Rev. 1, Diesel Fire Pump Annual Flow Test, did not include operator action should a fire occur during the performance of the test.
The licensee agreed to review the procedure and include guidance. This item is unresolved (50-346/79-28-01) until the inspector verifies that appropriate guidance has been included in the revised procedure.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
8.
Procedures The inspector determined that several procedures have numerous
,
temporary modifications attached that increased the amount of time and effort required to implement the procedure.
Some of the proce-dures have as many as 17 temporary modifications attached. The licensee has revised the administrative procedure for procedure revision and has given priority for revision to procedures of safety related systems with excessive numbers of temporary modifications.
The inspector will continue to followup on the status of procedure revisions to verify that temporary modifications of procedures are kept to a minimum.
No items of noncom,liance or deviations were identified.

October 10, 1979 In-Plant Liquid Release Approximately 100 gallons of reactor coolant water were released to the auxiliary building during the change of the letdown filter. No personnel were contaminated in the incident nor were there any air-borne overexposures. The technical specification release limits were not exceeded. The inspector witnessed from the control room the actions taken by the licensee during this incident.
