Subject:

Notice of Yiolation (NRC Inspection

Report No. 50-244/88-26)

This refers to the

NRC special

inspection,

conducted

December

11-21,

1988, of

the

B steam generator

frozen pressure

sensing

lines.

On February

7,

1989,

an

enforcement

conference

was held at the

NRC Region I offices in King of Prussia,

'Pennsylvania

to discuss

the event, its causes,

and your corrective actions.

Based

on the

NRC review of material

presented

by RG8E at the enforcement

con-

ference,

we have

made the following determinations.

(1) Your actions to pre-

vent recurrence

of the freezing in your steam generator

pressure

sensing lines

in 1980 were not in full compliance with NRC'egulations

as described

in the

enclosed

Notice of Violation.

You are required to respond

as described

in Ap-

pendix A.

(2)

No violation is issued regarding the lack of a review per

10 CFR 50.59.

We note your commitment to provide formal guidance to control

room per-

sonnel

for situations

when not enough time is available to complete

a review as

required

by 10 CFR 50.59.

(3) The

NRC concluded

no violation of Technical Specification 3.5.2 existed

when the bi stables

for PT-479 were restored.

Your

commitment to trip the bistables for at least

one channel

at all times

when two

have failed is appropriate.

Our review of the event concluded that your ac-

tions were conservative

and in the interest of safety.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 50.2.790,

a copy of this letter

and the enclosure

will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

The responses

directed

by this letter and the accompanying

Notice are not sub-

ject to clearance

procedures

of the Office of Management

and Budget as required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980,

PL 96-511.

Your cooperation with us in this matter is appreciated.

Sincerely,

ORGNAL IGNED 5Y

William F.

Kane, Director

Division of Reactor Projects
