SUBJECT:
REPORT
OF HEETING WITH APS
HANAGEHENT
This refers to a meeting held with you and
members of youl staff at the Palo
Verde Nuclear Generating Station
on August 5,
1993.
The meeting
was held to
discuss
the Systematic
Assessment
of Licensee
Performance
(SALP) results for
Palo Verde which we transmitted to you in Report Nos. 50-528,529,530/93-19.
The subjects
discussed
are summarized
in the enclosed
Heeting Report
Nos. 50-528,529,530/93-41.
In this meeting,
we recognized
the improvements Arizona Public Service
Company
(APS) achieved during this
SALP period, particularly in the area of operator
performance,
initiatives in the maintenance
program,
and strong engineering
technical efforts. 'lso,
we noted
areas
which warrant continued
or additional
management
attention,
such
as: the technical
resolution of the steam generator
tube integrity issues;
improvement in the effectiveness
of management
to
communicate their expectations
on procedural
adherence
through all levels of
the organization;
and improved licensed operator training on emergency
operating procedures.
We are also concerned
regarding the ability of APS
employees to feel free to raise safety'issues.
We encourage
your efforts to
thoroughly resolve these
issues
in a timely manner.
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.
Should you have
any questions
concerning
our minutes of the meeting,
documented
in the enclosed
meeting report,
we will be pleased
to discuss
them
with you.
