Docket No. 50-316
Company
ATTN:
Mr. E.
E. Fitzpatrick
Vice President
1 Riverside
Plaza
Columbus,
OH

Dear Mr. Fitzpatrick:
This refers to the routine safety inspection
conducted
by J.
A. Isom,
D. J. Hartland,
and T. Tella of this office on June
16 through July 27,
1993,
of activities at the Donald
C.
Cook Nuclear Plant,
Units
1
and 2, authorized
by
NRC Operating
Licenses
No.
and
and to the discussion
of our
findings with A. A. Blind and others of your staff at the conclusion of the
1nspect10n.
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.
Based
on the results of this inspection,
certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements,
as specified in the enclosed
Notice of
Violation (Notice).
The violation regarding your failure to perform
a formal
safety evaluation prior to de-energizing
in the
open position
an
Emergency
Diesel Generator
(EDG)
room ventilation damper is
a concern
because it
ultimately contributed to the inoperability of the
EDG.
In addition, this
deficiency was not identified during your investigation into this event.
The violation regarding the Unit 2 East Motor-Driven Auxiliary Feedwater
(MDAFW) pump is of concern
because
your failure to repair
a "minor" pump
packing leak in
a reasonable
time eventually lead to
a condition where the
leak worsened
and caused
your East
MDAFW pump outer bearing to be seriously
degraded.
Our concern is reinforced
by the fact that prolonged inaction to
repair
a "minor" emergency
diesel
lube oil leak in mid-1992 eventually led to
inoperability of the diesel.
This was the subject of escalated
enforcement
action.
You are required to respond to this letter
and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed
Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response,
you should document
the specific actions
taken
and
any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence.
You are specifically requested
to
address
actions,you
plan to take to ensure
that maintenance
on safety-related
equipment -is not improperly deferred,
such that the equipment is seriously
degraded
or -rendered
After reviewing your response
to the Notice,
