SUBJECT:

NRC INSPECTION REPORT

NO. 50-397/94-01

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Hr. John Russell of this office and

the inspectors identified in the enclosed report on February 7,

1994 through

February

18,

1994, of activities authorized

by NRC Operating License

No. NPF-

21,

and to the discussions

of findings held by the inspectors with

Nr. G. Smith and other members of the Supply System staff on February

18,

1994, at the conclusion of the inspection.

The inspection consisted of an in-depth review of a sample of your Emergency

Operating

Procedures

(EOPs)

and follow-up of previous

NRC deficiencies

associated

with your EOPs.

The inspection included

a desk-top review at

Region Y, February

7 through ll, and

an on-site inspection,

February

14

through 18.

Based

on the sample of the

EOPs reviewed the inspectors

concluded that your

EOPs were satisfactory to mitigate events.

The

EOPs

appeared

to be much

improved over the previous version examined

by the

NRC.

However, the

inspectors

observed that

some emergency

support procedures,

while adequate,

appeared

to need further review by your staff for consistency

and ease of

performance.

Your EOP programmatic controls were also found adequate,

with one notable

exception.

The graphics display system

(GDS)

had not been updated to be

consistent with the phase II EOPs.

The errors in 'the graphics display system

did not appear to affect proper implementation of EOPs,

but did show the need

to assign responsibility for updating the

GDS software.

Although the inspection concluded that your

EOPs were much improved,

some

specific concerns

were identified and are explained in the enclosed report.

We request that you address

each of these

concerns

and, if appropriate,

provide

a timetable for any corrective action in a letter to be sent within

thirty days of receipt of this report.

During our review of your response

to the

NRC inspection of EOPs conducted in

July and August,

1991,

our staff observed that

some previous plans for

corrective action had changed.

While we did not identify'ny significant

problems with these

changes,

we request

you submit

a letter to further clarify

actions

you took in response

to the

1991

NRC inspection for our review.

Submitting this information in a letter was agreed to by your staff during the

exit meeting

on February

18,

1994.

In accordance

with '10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of this letter, the enclosure,

and

your response will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

The responses

requested

by this letter are not subject to the clearance

procedures of the Office of management.,and

Budget

as required

by the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1980,

L.96-511.

Should you have

any questions

concerning this inspection,

we will be pleased

to discuss

them with you.
