SUBJECT:
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-261/94-23)
Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by W. T. Orders of this office on
August 21 - September 24, 1994. The inspection included a review of
activities authorized for your H. B. Robinson facility. At the conclusion of
the inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff
identified in the enclosed inspection report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice).
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
Also, based on results of the inspection, two apparent violations were
identified and are being considered for escalated enforcement action in
accordance with the "General statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC
Enforcement Actions" (Enforcement Policy), 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C. The
apparent violations involved mispositioned containment isolation valves, and
excessive pressurizer cooldown rate. Accordingly, no Notices of Violation are
presently being issued for these inspection findings. Please be advised that
the number and characterization of the apparent violations described in the
enclosed inspection report may change as a result of further NRC review.
An enforcement conference to discuss these apparent violations has been
scheduled for October 20, 1994. The decision to hold an enforcement

conference does not mean that the NRC has determined that a violation has
occurred or that enforcement action will be taken. The purposes of this
conference are to discuss the apparent violations, their causes and safety
significance; to provide you the opportunity to point out any errors in our
inspection report; and to provide an opportunity for you to present your
proposed corrective actions. In addition, this is an opportunity for you to
provide any information concerning your perspectives on 1) the severity of the
violations; 2) the application of the factors that the NRC considers when it
determines the amount of a civil penalty that may be assessed in accordance
with Section VI.B.2 of the Enforcement Policy; and 3) any other application of
the Enforcement Policy to this case, including the exercise of discretion in
accordance with Section VII.
You will be advised by separate correspondence
of the results of our deliberations on this matter. No response regarding
these apparent violations is required at this time.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of
this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
The responses directed by this letter and its enclosed Notice are not subject
to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget as required
by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, Pub. L.. No.96-511.
Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact us.
