Report

No. 50-220/90-80,

Readiness

Assessment

Team Inspection

The

NRC staff conducted

a readiness

assessment

team

inspection

(RATI) at Nine

Mile Point Unit

1 in Scriba,

New York, April 30 through

May ll, 1990.

The pur-

pose of this. inspection

was to evaluate

plant readiness

for restart

based

upon

an

assessment

of the extent to which the underlying root causes

(URCs) of pre-

viously identified

management

effectiveness

issues

have

been

resolved.

Per-

formance-based

evaluations

of

plant

activities

were

performed

during

the

inspection

in order to determine

the

effectiveness

of

implemented

corrective

actions'verall,

the

team

found the material

condition of the plant to

be acceptable

and the plant organization

capable of managing activities associated

with plant

startup

and

operation.

The

team

concluded

that corrective

actions

taken

by

Niagara

Mohawk have effected appropriate

changes

in the control

and performance

of plant activities,

and

in the

analysis

and

assessment

of plant

events

to

resolve the

URCs.

The team also concluded

from the observation

of plant activ-

ities performed

by Niagara

Mohawk during the inspection that the implementation

of these

changes

has

been sufficiently effective to support

the restart of the

unit.

We have

noted

in this report your commitment to review instrument drawings

and

to walk down instrumentation

(other

than

local

indication

gauges)

on safety-

related

systems

to

ensure

that

the

instrument

root

valves

are

properly

positioned prior to restart.

Please

inform us if your understanding

of this

commitment differs from that discussed

in this report.

We appreciate

your cooperation.

Sincerely,

%v@QQJ q)g
