SUBJECT:

INSPECTION
REPORT 50-397/95-33
This refers to the inspection
conducted
by Messrs.
R.C. Barr, J.
W. Clifford,
D.
E. Corporandy,
F.
L. Brush,
and T.
R.
Meadows of this office on
November 26,
1995,
through January
6,
1996, at the Washington Nuclear
Project-2 facility.
The purpose of the inspection
was to determine
whether
activities authorized
by the license
were conducted
safely
and in accordance
with NRC requirements.
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.
Performance
in the engineering
area during this report period
was
inconsistent.
Engineering
responded
well to
a damaged
reactor core isolation
cooling system pipe support
and
a failure of an emergency diesel
generator
to
start properly.
However,
initial evaluation of the lifting of a diesel
starting air relief valve did not consider other potential
causes
and the
initial evaluation of an apparent
water
hammer event in the service water
system did not proceed
in a timely manner.
We recognize that you have
initiatives in your Performance
Enhancement
Strategy to improve performance
in
the engineering
area.
In accordance
with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice,"
a copy of
this letter
and its enclosures 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,
.
J.
E. Dyer, Director
Division of Reactor Projects
