NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-387/99-03 and 50-388/99-03
Dear Mr. Byram:
On March 15, 1999, the NRC completed an inspection at your Susquehanna
Steam Electric
Station (SSES) Unit 18 2 reactor facilities. The inspections covered routine activities by the
resident inspectors a'nd an announced inspection of the independent spent fuel storage facility
by a Region I inspector.
The enclosed report presents the results ofthese inspections.
The
inspectors discussed the findings ofthese inspections with Mr. R. Saunders, Vice President
Nuclear Operations, Mr. G. Kuczynski, General Manager SSES, and others of your staff, at an
exit meeting at the completion of the inspection period.
During the 6-week period of inspection, your staff's conduct of activities was characterized by
~
~
~
safe operation.
We willcontinue to evaluate your staff's response to the unexpected failure of
the Unit 1 "B" residual heat removal injection valve.
Based on the results ofthis inspection, the NRC has determined that 2 violations of NRC
requirements occurred.
These violations are being treated as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs),
consistent with Appendix C of the Enforcement Policy. These NCVs are described in the
subject inspection report and involve core spray system surveillance tests and radiation
monitors on the residual heat removal service water system.
Ifyou contest the violations or
severity level ofthese NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this
inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN:
Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001, with copies to the Regional
Administrator, Region I, and the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001.
