Persons Contacted

  • N.

Kalivianakis, Superintendent

J. Gudac, Assistant Superintendent

T. Tamlyn, Lead Operating Engineer

K. Graesser, Administrative Assistant

  • L.

Gerner, Technical Staf f Supervisor

D. Bax, Opet. ting Engineer, Unit 2

  • J. Heilman, Quality Assurance, Operations

The inspector also interviewed several other litansee employees,

including shift engineers and foremen, reactor operators, tech-

nical staf; personnel and quality control personnel.

  • Denotes those present at the exit interview.

2.

Onsite Review of Operator Training

Licensee administered operating training, as described in the

licensee's response to IE Bulletin No. 79-08, did not include a

completion date. The licensee's goal for completion of this

training is July 1, 1979. This matter will be reviewed during

subsequent inspections (254/79-12-01; 265/79-10-01).

Directives for early NRC notification of serious events are

contained within the generating stations Emergency Plan Pro-

cedures. Early NRC notification is a well established practice

of the licensee. As to the continuous communications channel

the licensee's position is as stated in item nine of the response

to the Bulletin. This matter, as well as the entire licensee's

response, will be reviewed by NRR.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

3.

Onsite Inspection of Safety Features

The inspector reviewed licensee procedures and checklists

a.

against P&ID's and single line diagrams to ensure that

when implemented, valve, breaker and switch alignment

would provide adequate alignment for system operation.

Included was a review of general abnormal procedures to

verify that safety systems once initiated are not to be

overridden.

Operators, procedurally, may take manual

control if the system has not automatically initiated.

Procedures associated with water level transients designate

prime responsibility of monitoring level parameters to the

center desk operator.

The following procedures were reviewed:

The inspector reviewed the accessible valve, breaker and

switch alignments both in the control room and in plant to

verify that their status was as indicated and were capable

of performing their intended function if necessary.

All in plant buses, motor control centers and respective

breaker position status were verified. The following

valve status was verified.

The inspector reviewed the licensee response to IE Bulletin

c.

No. 79-08, items 8A, 8B and 8C and reviewed the respective

procedures to assure proper " return to service" of safety

No items of noncompliance were identified.

The inspector determined trat the licensee utilizes "indepen-

e.

dent verification" of system alignment following extended

outages.

Following maiatenance activities, verification

of system alignment is accomplished by testing to ensure

that the affected system will perform its intended function.

After satisfactory completion of the test, the system is

then declared operable.

The licensee on a daily basis independently verifies

accessible manual ano motor operated emergency core cooling

system suction valve aligaments with breaker, fuse and

pump status included.

The licensee implements a "S" lock control over essential

manual valves. Keys are available only by permission of

the Shift Engineer who logs the appropriate information on

release and return of keys.

No apparent inadequacies were identified in the administrative

controls to assure return to operability at the conclusion

of extended outages.

No items of noncompliance were identified.

4.

Onsite Assessment of Operating Procedures

Reactor Core Isolation and/or High Pressure Coolant Injection

systems are not required to assist in level control of the

reactor during routine operational event induced reactor level

transients.

Tagging practices on control panels do provide a potential I i

obscuring status indicators. However, recent operator practice

is to manipulate tags so as to climinate obscuring the visual

status of essential safety equipment.
