Attention:
Hr. G.
C. Sorensen
Manager, .Regulatory
Programs
Subject:
NRC Inspection Report No. 50-397/92-22
This refers to the routine inspection
conducted
by Hr. K. E. Johnston of this
office on June
1 through 26,
1992 of activities authorized
by NRC Operating
License
No. NPF-21,
and to the discussion of findings held by the inspector
with Hr. J.
Baker and other members of the Supply System's staff at the
conclusion of the inspection.
Areas examined during this inspection
are desc} ibed in the enclosed
inspection
report.
Within these
areas,
the inspection consisted of selective
examina-
tions of procedures
and representative
records,
interviews with personnel,
and
observations
by the inspector.
Please direct your attention to paragraph
2.c of the enclosed report, which
describes
the disposition of a ieaking relief valve on a Division 3 diesel
starting air receiver.
Although it is not apparent that the leaking valve
affected the operability of the diesel generator,
the review which found the
leaking valve to be acceptable
was limited in scope
and did not take into
consideration
the degraded
condition of other
components
in the starting air
system.
Additionally, the fact that
a replacement
valve was later found in
warehouse
stock indicates that the initial review was not thorough.
One non-cited violation is also discussed
in the enclosed
inspection report
{paragraph 2.b).
In accordance
with 10 CFR 2.790(a),
a copy of this letter and the enclosure
will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
Should you have any questions
concerning this inspection,
we will be pleased
to discuss
them with you.
Sincerely,
S. A. Richards,
Chief
