Subject:

Systematic

Assessment

of Licensee

Performance

(SALP) for the

Period of June

1,

1987 through

May 31,

1988

This refers to the

NRC's Systematic

Assessment

of Licensee

Performance

(SALP)

Board Report for Washington Nuclear Plant

(WNP-2) dated July 20,

1988; our

meeting of August 18,

1988, in which we discussed

the contents of the Report;

and your written comments

in response

to the Report dated

September

17,

1988.

During the August 18,

1988 meeting,

we discussed

your planned corrective actions

relating to this assessment

of your activities authorized

by NRC License

NPF-21.

Subjects

discussed

during the meeting are

summarized

in the enclosed

inspection report 50-397/88-31.

The

NRC had

a number of concerns

with Supply System performance during the

SALP

period.

These

concerns

received special

emphasis

in our discussions

during

this meeting

and were as follows:

Yianagement

involvement in activities (e.g., interface with personnel

to

convey expectations

on performance etc.)

Insufficient follow-through/timeliness

on commitments

and corrective

actions

Personnel

performance

error s resulting from insufficient operator

attention to procedures

or proceeding

in the face of uncertainty,

particularly in the operations

area

Inadequate

preparation of equipment clearances,

resulting in a number of

near misses

Engineering/technical

support effectiveness

Involvement and effectiveness

of quality oversight groups

We reviewed your response

to the

WNP-2 SALP Board Report,

dated

September

17,

1988,

and noted that there

were

no comments

addressing

the specific content of

the report.

We feel that your proposed corrective actions to deal with areas

needing

improvement appear to be responsive

and substantial..

As discussed

by

D. F. Kirsch, of my staff, and A. L. Oxsen, of your staff, by telephone

on

October 6, 1988,

we note that your plans for improvement could benefit from the

application of a systematic

program to periodically assess

the effectiveness

of

your initiatives to improve performance

and provide any necessary

corrective

adjustments.

Accordingly, please

provide us with your plans for periodically

assessing

the effectiveness

of your corrective action.

We will discuss

the

results of your periodic assessment

during .each of our future management

meetings.

Based

on the formal exchange of information between our respective staffs,

and

in the absence

of verbal identification of discrepancies

within the report

or formal written comments

from you requiring resolution,

no changes

to the

SALP Board Report are necessary.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of this letter and the enclosures

will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

No reply to this letter is required;

however,

should you have

any questions

concerning the

SALP Report, Appendix thereto, of our SALP meeting,

we will be

pleased to discuss

them with you.

Sincerely,

J.
