INSPECTION

REPORT 50-397/95-14

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Messrs,

L.

E. Ellershaw,

C. J.

Paulk,

and J.

E. Whittemore of this office on April 24 through

May 23,

1995.

The inspection

included

a review of activities authorized for

your Washington

Nuclear Project-2 facility.

At the conclusion of the

inspection,

the findings were discussed

with those

members of your staff

identified in the enclosed

report.

Areas

examined during the inspection

are identified in the report.

Within

these

areas,

the inspection consisted

of selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observation of

activities in progress.

The purpose of the inspection

was to determine

whether activities authorized

by the license

were conducted

safely

and in

accordance

with NRC requirements.

The inspectors

identified two violations of Criterion

V of Appendix

B to

10

CFR Part 50:

a failure to adequately

implement

a procedure for certifying the

visual acuity of nondestructive

test personnel,

and

a failure to have

an

ultrasonic testing procedure

adequately

address criteria for determining that

important activities

had

been

accomplished.

These violations are not being

cited because

the criteria in paragraph VII.B.(l) of Appendix

C to

10 CFR Part 2 of the

NRC's "Rules of Practice,"

were satisfied.

These

were isolated

occurrences

and your staff took prompt

and thorough corrective actions.

Additionally, your personnel

identified the securing of the residual

heat

removal

system while in the shutdown cooling mode for greater

than

3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> in

an 8-hour period,

and this was

a violation of the Technical Specifications.

This violation is not being cited because

the criteria in paragraph VII.B.(2)

of Appendix

C to

10 CFR Part 2 were satisfied.

The amount of decay heat

present

at the time of the event

was minimal

and the reactor coolant

temperature

did not rise

a significant amount.

For the specific areas

examined

and the associated

inspection findings, the

inspectors

concluded there

was

an

improvement in licensee

performance of

refueling outage activities

as

compared to that of the previous outage.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice,"

a copy of

this letter

and its enclosure will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.
