SUBJECT:
TURKEY POINT OPERATIONAL READINESS ASSESSMENT
TEAM INSPECTION
REPORT
NOS. 50-250/91-38
AND 50-251/91-38
This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) inspection
conducted
by
Mr.
T.
A.
Peebles
and
other
NRC
personnel
on
September
9-13,
1991.
. The
inspection
included
a review of activities
authorized
for your Turkey Point
facility. At the conclusion of the inspection,
the findings were discussed
with
those
members of your staff identified in the enclosed
report.
The inspection effort involved examination of selected activities in the areas
of management of outage activities, configuration control management,
operations,
Technical Specification adherence,
security,
engineering
and technical
support.
Within
these
areas,
the
inspection
consisted
of selected
examinations
of
installed equipment, review and wal'kdown of procedures,
interviews with personnel
and observation of activities in progress.
The team determined that the outage
was accomplished
in a quality manner,
and the
plant
was staffed
by competent
personnel
who were capable
of starting-up
and
operating the plant safely.
However, the team identified that one design
cha'nge
was not properly
implemented
such that the back-up cooling water flow to the
charging
pumps would not have functioned.
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).
In particular, the design process
used for the modification
that you made to provide
an alternate
source of cooling water to the charging
pumps'ydraulic
couplers
was
not effective
because it did not
assure
that
calculations,
tests
or procedural
requirements
were
developed
to demonstrate
adequate
cooling flow.
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.
After reviewing your
response
to this notice,
including your proposed corrective actions
and the results of future inspections,
the
NRC will determine
whether further
NRC enforcement
action is necessary
to
ensure
compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
