Dear Mr. Keiser:

Subject:

Combined Inspection Report Nos. 50-387/92-21 and 50-388/92-21

h

An unannounced

radiological controls inspection was conducted by J. Noggle at the

Susquehanna

Steam Electric Station (SSES) on August 10-14, 1992.

The inspection involved

review of areas important to worker health and safety.

The inspection findings were

discussed with your staff at an exit meeting on August 14, 1992.

The inspection focused on

organimtion, training and qualifications, and a review of the operations HP group,

In

addition, review was made of one radwaste resin shipment.

At the time of this inspection, your staff was preparing for their second refueling and

maintenance outage of the year.

Adequate radiation protection resources

appear to be

available for the upcoming outage.

Several enhancements

to the operational HP program

have been developed for outage implementation and willbe reviewed in a later outage

inspection.

Finally, in connection with the review of the radwaste resin shipment a

discrepancy was noted in sampling which is detailed in the attached report,

The discrepancy

involved a significant difference between the actual measured

contact radiation dose rate on

the shipment liner and the dose rate determined by calculational methods following laboratory

analysis of a sample reportedly representative of the contents of the liner. While manual

resampling enabled your staff to resolve the discrepancy for that particular shipment, the

capability of the automatic in-line sampler to provide adequate and representative

samples

requires further review.

We willfoHow-up on your staff's evaluation of this matter in a

future inspection.
