Gentlemen:
Subject:
Inspection
Report
No. 50-244 85-08
A special
team inspection
was conducted
on June
10-14,
1985 to review systems
and procedures
at Ginna Station for post-accident
sampling
and monitoring as
specified in NUREG-0737.
Mithin the
scope of this review,
no violations were
observed.
However,
several
areas
were identified that should
be improved to
ensure reliability of system operation
and credibility of the information
generated.
Me are particularly concerned'bout
the following items:
~
the coaxial
signal
cable
and connection for the containment
high range
radiation monitors
may not withstand
an accident environment;
~
the ability to obtain
a representative
coolant
sample at low reactor
system pressure
is uncertain;
~
testing of the
system
should
be completed to ensure
the accuracy,
range,
and sensitivity of the coolant analysis data;
and
~
the calculated sensitivity of the
steam line radiation monitor s has not
been verified by empirical data.
Additionally, subsequent
to the inspection
we learned that the Eberline
SPING-4
system
used to monitor particulate,
and noble gases
in the station vent
may be damaged
by high radiation levels and fail to function in accident condi-
tions.
This information was relayed to your staff on September
4,
1985.
In
this regard,
please
provide this office with a description of action taken or
planned relative to these particular
items within 25 days of the date of this
letter.
