SUBJECT:
NRC PREDECISIONAL ENFORCEMENT CONFERENCE REPORT
Dear Mr. Myers:
This refers to a Predecisional EnforUement Conference conducted by Mr. A. Bill Beach,
<
Regional Administrator, and other members of the NRC staff on October 7,1997. The Predecisional Enforcement Conference war conducted to discuss the apparent violation identified in Inspection Report No. 50-440/97008 involving a safety evaluation that failed to identify an unreviewed safety question.
The NRC considered that an unreviewed safety question existed due to the increased potential of operator error and the increased radiological dose to the operators. Your staff acknowledged the unreviewed safety question, but differed with the NRC over the basis. Your staff concluded that an unreviewed safety ques' ion existed because the margin of safety as described in the NRC's Safety Evaluation Report was reduced. In addition, the conference included continued discussion from an enforcement conference that was held on April 18,1997, involving corrective actions for a reactivity addition event. We have enclosed a report summarizing the discussion including your slides for the enforcement concerence and a management meeting.
There was limited discussion of the management meeting topics due to time constraints.
You will be notified by separate correspondence of our decision regading the enforcement actions based on the information presented and discussed at the Predecisional Enforcement Conference. No response is required until you are notified of the proposed Enforcement Actions.
