  • Denotes applicant representatives present during exit intervie The NRC inspector also interviewed other applicant employees during this inspection perio . Applicant Actions on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) Violation (8514-01): During an inspection to verify the adequacy of the applicant's preventative maintenance program, several discrepancies in water chemistry data were noted. The discrepancies fell into the following categories:

(1) Missing data entries in water chemistry record (2) Failure to note that shift supervisor was notified of out-of-specification condition (3) Failure to identify corrective actions taken to correct out-of-specification condition (4) Inadequate review of the acceptability of water chemistry dat The NRC inspector has reviewed the applicant's corrective actions:

-

. .. .

Item No. 1: Revision of the data sheets to clarify the information required and highlight parameter limit Item No. 2: Revision of Procedure CHM-508 to include the requirement to notify the shift supervisor and document notification on data sheet Item No. 3: Revision of Procedure CHM-104 to include guidance for documentation of corrective actio Item No. 4: Review of all past CHM-501-1 and CHM-508-1 data sheets will be conducted to identify any previously unidentified and unresolved chemistry item On October 1, 1986, all actions were completed by the applicant. In addition, the applicant received from Westinghouse Electric Corporation a report on the out-of-specification condition which was present in the steam generators. No adverse problems were identified in the Westinghouse report. The NRC inspector reviewed the procedures and actions taken by the applicant. No uncorrected or unidentified problems were identified. This item is close b. (Closed) Violation (8431-08): The initial review of the applicants response to this violation was conducted during the reporting period documented in NRC Inspection Report 50-445/86-01. 'At the time, all parts except part "a", the revision of STA-602, " Temporary Modifications and Bypassing of Safety Functions," and the receipt of new tags to implement the procedure were left ope The NRC inspector has reviewed the revised procedure and verified that the new tagging provisions have been implemented. This item is close c. (Closgd) Deviation (8605-01): This deviation deals with the failure to meet a commitment date to revise a procedure in response to a notice of violation. The commitment was to revise Procedure STA-602 in response to violation 8431-08 (b. above). To correct this situation a directive from the Vice President, Nuclear Operations was issued emphasizing the importance of fulfilling response commitment The NRC inspector reviewed the directive. This item is close d. (Closed) Deviation (8605-03): This deviation involved failure to provide documented evidence that minimum acceptable maintenance actions were performed on several components selected by the NRC for review. As a result of the inspection findings, there was a concern regarding potential Preventative Maintenance (PM) program weaknes To resolve this deviation, the applicant selected an additional 12 safety-related components to evaluate. The applicant concluded that the gaps in the records were the result of the PM program not taking

. ... .

into account the time the equipment was operating or was having maintenance performed on it. The program has been revised to require annotation and justification when scheduled PM activities cannot be performed. Review of the applicant actions by the NRC inspector indicates that, although there were instances where the PM activities were not performed, explanatory or equivalent activities were in progress; i.e., equipment operating or maintenance in progress. No basis was found to indicate that deterioration of equipment has occurred. This item is considered close (Closed) Open item (8436-08): This open item identified several Emergency Response Guidelines (ERGS) that contained missing data which were labeled "later." The final correction, the inclusion of a graph in ECA-31, has been completed and the ERGS now contain no missing data. This item is close . Plant Tours During this reporting period, the SRRI conducted inspection tours of Unit 1. In addition to the general housekeeping activities and general cleanliness of the facility, specific attention was given to areas where safety-related equipment was installed and where activities were in progress involving safety-related equipment. These areas were inspected to ensure that:

o Work in progress was being accomplished using approved procedures, o Special precautions for protection of equipment were impleniented, and additional cleanliness requirements were being adhered to for maintenance and welding activities, o Installed safety-related equipment and components were being protected and maintained to prevent damage and deterioratio Also during these tours, the SRR1 reviewed the control room and shift supervisor's log books. Key items in the log review were:

o Plant statu o Changes in plant status, o Documentation of problems which arise during operating shift . Plant Status as of October 31, 1986 Unit No. I remains at 99 percent complete. Replacement of condenser tubing has been completed. A significant amount of pipe support rework is in progress and/or in the planning stage, Unit No. 2 is now 80 percent complete. Preoperational testing of safety related systems has not coninenced; however, test procedures are being generated. Replacement of the condenser tubing is in progres .-.
