SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-269/89-01, 50-270/98-01 AND
50-287/89-01
The NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) has been completed
for your Oconee facility. The facility was evaluated for the period August 1,
1987 - January 31, 1989.
The results of the evaluation are documented in the
enclosed Interim SALP Report.
This report will be discussed with you at a
public meeting to be held at the Oconee facility on April 21,
1989, at
10:00 a.m.
The performance of your Oconee facility was evaluated in the functional areas
of Plant Operations, Radiological Controls, Maintenance/Surveillance, Emergency
Preparedness,
Security, Engineering/Technical Support,
and Safety Assess
ment/Quality Verification.
Overall performance of your Oconee facility was satisfactory during this
assessment period.
Although the functional areas evaluated during this
assessment period are not identical to those in the previous period, a close
correlation can be made for identifying changes in performance.
Strengths were identified in the areas of Plant Operations, Radiological
Controls and Emergency Preparedness.
Operations performance continued to be a strength. Management was frequently
observed in various areas of the plant providing oversight of activities and
guidance to personnel.
Operator training and experience were excellent. The
number of automatic trips were reduced well below the industry average and
below the goals you established for Oconee.
In the area of Maintenance/Surveillance performance has declined. Overall your
maintenance and surveillance programs
have experienced a decrease in
effectiveness. Over this assessment period, numerous performance problems were
identified characterized by inattention to detail, miscommunication and
procedural/personnel errors.
The Emergency Preparedness area maintained a strong performance.
A weakness
was identified in an emergency exercise which would not be expected in a SALP
Category 1 program.
However, you implemented a prompt and very effective
response to the weakness and subsequently you effectively demonstrated your
capabilities during actual events.

With respect to Security,
performance declined from a Category 1 to a
Category 2. A lack of responsiveness in resolving a long standing issue
relating to the assessment capability of the closed circuit television system
and an increase in the number of violations detracted from an otherwise
favorable evaluation of the security program.
Management effort in the Engineering/Technical Support area is apparent from
the improvement in this assessment period. Management activities have resulted
in the self-identification of several significant problems. Although progress
has been made in this area, a weakness still exists in the quality of
communication between design engineering and other plant organizations.
Any comments you have concerning our evaluation of the performance of your
Oconee facility should be submitted to this office within 30 days following the
date of our meeting. These comments will be considered in development of the
Final SALP Report. Your comments and a summary of our meeting will be issued
as an appendix to the Final SALP Report.
Should you have any questions concerning this letter, we will be glad to
discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
Stewart D. Ebneter
Regional Administrator
