The inspector was presented LDCN NMPC-588 that corrected the FSAR.
The inspector had no further questions.

On June 25 and 26, the section chief and senior resident inspector reviewed the current status of the (}1P as an update to the NRC team assessment documented in NRC Inspection Report No. 50-410/86-04.
The review included discussions with the glP manager, review of the computer summary of all concerns initiated since the assessment, review of nine concern files and discussions with the licensee interviewer and investigator involved in two of the cases.
The review focused on the licensee efforts to improve the program weaknesses identified by the earlier assessment.
Discussion with the glP manager indicated that corporate management had been involved in improving the working relationship between the glP investigation and security investigation processes to assure appropriate disposition of potential wrongdoing issues.
As a result, previous concerns of this nature were reviewed again by the licensee to assure proper disposition, and the licensee's computer tracking system was revised for easier identification of'such concerns.
No new concerns identified as being in this category by the licensee have occurred, therefore, this improved process has not been tested.
Nine concern files dealing with potential wrongdoing issues of this nature were reviewed, eight of which were generated prior to the assessment.
One of the earlier eight concerns, involving potential harassment and intimi-dation of a contractor (}C inspector, and a more recent concern involving possible cheating on a lead gA auditor exam, were further discussed with
N a I I,-
the glP investigator and interviewer involved in the respective cases.
Based on these discussions, both of these cases appear to have been dis-positioned appropriately as invalid.
The inspector noted that in one case the documentation in the concern file did not support the conclusion because it did not fully define the concern or the basis for the conclusion.
Of the other seven earlier concern files reviewed, the documentation fully and completely defined the concerns and documented their disposition.
Further dicussion with the glP manager and review of the computer summary of concerns indicated that the licensee had added codes to the concerns to aid in trending concerns of a similar nature.
The data summarized below indicates that program activity has declined slightly since the NRC team assessment.

17 The licensee appears to have been responsive to making improvements in the glP in response to the weaknesses identified by the NRC Q1P team assessment.
Particular improvement was noted in the licensee's process for handling of potential wrongdoing issues.
No violations were identified.

II.K.3.21 Restart of low pressure coolant injection 86-29-04 III.D.1. 1 Primary coolant outside containment 86-29-05 The licensee was informed on July 3 of the need for Region I closure of these additional items prior to fuel load.
The following previously identified TMI items were reviewed and closed.
(Closed) II.B.4, Training for Mitigating Core Damage (86-09-15).
The licensee committed to train applicable operating personnel in the lessons from the TMI-2 accident and methods to mitigate core damage.
The training program was based on the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO)
Report STG-011, Rev.
1, dated January 15, 1981, which was based on the training outlined in Enclosure 3 of H.R. Denton's March 28, 1980 letter.
This training has been part of the training program for licensed operators.
The inspector reviewed the Lesson Objectives and Student Handout for'his training and reviewed the Lesson Plan and Attendance Report for the training of two classes in April and October, 1985.
These actions acceptably met the requirements and were consistent with tne FSAR and the SER.
This item is closed.
(Closed) II.F.2, Instrumentation for Detection of Inadequate Core Cooling (86-09-19).
The licensee agreed with the BWR Owner s Group position that the principal method of confirming core cooling, reactor vessel water level, is adequate to ensure detection of approach to inadequate core cooling.
The SER agreed with this position.
The inspector confirmed that the NMP-2 level instrumentation uses analog level transmitters and trip units.
The licensee's position acceptably met the requirements and was consistent with the FSAR and the SER.
This item is closed.
(Closed) II.K.1.22, Auxiliary Heat Removal System Procedures (86-09-22).
NUREG-0737 required that licensees meet part 3 of IE Bulletin 79-08, which addressed the procedures needed to operate the auxiliary heat removal system when the feedwater system is not operable.
The NMP-2 design provides for automatic system response to the lack of normal feedwater operation by means of the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) and High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS)
Systems and the main steam relief valves.
Subsequent to these automatic responses, operator action is needed to provide heat removal via the suppression pool cooling and steam condensing modes of the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System and the Service Water System.
The inspector reviewed the procedures for the above actions in operating procedures N2-IOP-31, Residual Heat Removal System, and N2-IOP-ll, Service Water System.
These actions acceptably met the requirements and were consistent with the FSAR and the SER.
This item is close C

(Closed) II.K.1.23, Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation Procedures (86-09-23).
NUREG-0737 required that licensees meet parts 4 and 5 of IE Bulletin 79-08, which addressed the procedures for operator use of the various reactor vessel level instrumentation and for not overriding auto-matic actions of engineered safety features.
The licensee incorporated all of these instructions of Bulletin 79-08 into the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs)
and the administrative procedure for operations (AP-4.0).
All operators have received training on the EOPs and the APs.
The inspector confirmed that the EOP training covered the applicable instructions by reviewing the Lesson Plan for EOPs, the EOP Training Guide, and the appli-cable Lesson Plan and Attendance Report for the 85-01 and 86-01 classes.
The EOPs were also reviewed in Inspection Report 86-26.
These actions acceptably met the requirements and were consistent with the FSAR and the SER.
This item is closed.
(Closed) II.K.3.27, Common Reference for Vessel Level Instrumentation (86-09-30).
NUREG-0737 required that the various reactor vessel level instrumentation have the same reference level.
The NMP-2 vessel level instruments have been designed with the same level reference (380.7 inches above the vessel invert).
The inspector reviewed the installed instruments in the control room for the five ranges of reactor vessel level and confirmed that all had the same reference.
The inspector noted that the instruments had slightly varying readings based on the different reactor conditions for which they had been calibrated (i.e., hot, cold, etc.).
These actions acceptably met the requirements and were consistent with the FSAR and the SER.
This item is closed.
