Dear Congressman Panetta:

Thank you for your mailgram dated March 30, 1979, requesting an immediate investigation of the circumstances surrounding the accident at Three Mile Island, assurance that steps are being taken to prevent a similar occurrence at other nuclear facilities, and a comparison of the designs of the Three Mile Island and Diablo Canyon Units to detemine if there are any similarities.

Our Office of Inspection and Enforcemen't is conducting a datailed investigation to de+9rmine all pertinent facts associated with the Three Mile :sland accident itself.

The results of this investigcn. ion, which should be completed early this fall, will be made publicly available.

Oc Office of tiuclear Reactor Regulation has been temporarily reorganized into a number of Task Forces to facilitate a comprehensive review of the technical and operational implications.of the Three Mile Island accident, not only for operating reactors but also for plants currently under licensing review.

Our other major staff Offices are providing support to fiRR in these efforts, as well as evaluating the changes which may be necessary in their own programs as a resuit of the accident.

In addition, the Commission's own special inquiry into the Three Mile Island accident is now established.

Trv publid' announcement (Enclosure

1) of the appointr.ent of Mr. Rogovin as director describes the scope of the inquiry.

A copy of the report of the inquiry will be provided to you, per you request, when the report is completed.

There are some 50 t;RC. senior staff members involved full-time, organized into eight task groups, and additional support is being provided by other I;RC staff, and the services of contractors and consultants, where possible. This inquiry has been in progress under the direction of an interim director prior to the appointment of Mr. Rogovin.

As you may be aware, there are other groups investigating the Three Mile Island accident, including two Congressional committees and the special Presidential Commission, tiRC is cooperating extensively with these outside investigations.

The Commission i.s also working to take every step necessa'ry to ensure that the chances of a TMI-type incident occurring at another plant are minimized.

We'have underway a comprehensive review of the safety-related regulations and standards for nuclear power plants, the training and licensing standards for reactor operations, and the inspection and enforcemerit program for operating plants.

We already have put those

elements of the staff who are not immediately involved in dealing with the situation at TM1 to work on this essential and major effort.

The Diablo Canyon plants are FWR units designed by Westinghouse.

As you know, Three Mile Island is also a PWR plant but was designed by Babcock ahd Wilcox.

The NRC is reviewing Westinghouse PWR designs to assess the relative reactor system dynamic behavior that these designs would be subjected ' o as a result of an accident similar to the type which occurred t

at Three Mile Island, that is, a complete loss of main feedwater.

The NRC L,itiated action in this area with the issuance of two bulletins which requested that licensees operating Westinghouse plants take certain specific action.

Copies of these bulletins are enclosed for your information.

In addition, the staff is meeting with representatives of Westinghouse to discuss related analyses, tests, and plant features dealing with small break Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA), anticipated transients, operator training and procedures, and reliability of the auxiliary feedwater systems including associated controls and natural circulation capability.

With regard to licensing reviews, the NRC staff is initially focusing its efforts on plants that are in the final stages of operating license review like Diablo Canyon.

At a minimum, these plants will be reviewed in the same manner as plants already operating with regard to recedial actions. As the TMI-2 studies and investigations proceed, it is likely that additional actions that must be implemented in the short term prior to issuance of an operating license will be identified.

The staff will complete the necessary reviews and report its findings related to whether such short term actions must also be implemented prior to a decision to issue an operating license for each plant.

Although no formal moratorium has been declared, it is anticipated that it will take at least three months for such reviews to be completed and for. the necessary pre-licensing changes to be implemented.

The results of these staff reviews will be summarized in reports which will be available to the public.

I hope that the above preliminary information will be helpful to you.

ATTORI!EY MITCHELL ROGOVIN NA'iED TO DIRECT NRC'S SPECIAL IliOUIKI INTO THREE MILE ISIJ.ND ACCIDENT Mitchell Rogovin, senior partner in the Washington law f.tra of Rogovin, Stern and Huge, has been appointed by the Nuclear Regulatory Cort.icsion,to direct a special independent inquiry into the March 2 8 a6cident at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant in Pennsylvania.

Mr. Rogovin and F.ts law firm will direct the inquiry to determine actual even ts which occurred at Three Mile Island and their causes, and tha actions of the licensee, Metropolitan Edison Compan, and NhC personnel before and af ter the accident.

f The inouiry will also identify areas of deficiemcy rev aaled by the accident and areas in which further investigation is warranted.

It is e;cpected that the special inquiry will take about six months.

During the period that the Cc=is sion has been seeking a director for the special ingniry, a staf f of NRC personnel and consultants headed by Dr. Kevin Cornell, Depuri D:e cutive Direc-tor for Operations, has begun the initial phases of the inquiry.

In addition, the NRC Office of Inspectio- '" * ~ - ament has been carryinc out its staf f-level investigation of ne a c ciden t, and

~

the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has fomed a task force which is studying the lessons learned frca the accident.

In announcing the appointment, NRC Chairmam Joseph M.

Hendrie said:

344 273 "The Special Inquiry represents a major phase of the Commis-sion's evaluation of the Three Mile Island accident and its impli-cations.

It is not intended to duplicate the efforts of the.

President's Corission on the Accident at Three Mile Island.

Rather, it.is designed so that the Nuclear Regulatory Conmission, in order to fulfill its own regulatory responsibilities, will have the fullest pcs.sible understand 1ag of the events at Three Mile Island, both from the tecnnical standpoint and frot the standpoint ci how our regulatcry processes funcrioned.

The pur-pose of that evaluation is to permit the Co=ission to take whatever further steps may be necessag to preven: 'any similar accident in the future, and to improve the ';RC 's ability to respond to accidents."

O

. It. Rogovin will have authority to des igna t e a suaff of his own choosing, including NRC personnel and consultants currently engaged in the interim inquiry, and staff and consultants front outside the Cornission.

Mr. Rogovin will have full independence in directing the inqviry.

Mr. Rogovin, both as Chief Counsel to the Internal Revenue Service and then as 'ssistant U. S. Attorney Gene _ral, has had en*ensive experience ~ n supervising large-sca3n vestigations.

~-

Subsequently, while in private practice, he se: vud as Special Counsel to the Central Intelligence Agency during investigations into activities of the intelligence CC=munity.

Mr. Rogovin's partner, George T.

Frampton, Jr., served for two years on the Watergate Special Prosecution Force, where he wa.s one of a five-nenber tean that copducted the grand jury investigc. tion and the trial of the Watergate case.

In 1977-78, the Rogovin,' Stern and Huge fi= was retained by the U.S.

Civil Service Conrission to conduct an outside, inde-nendent, investigation of allegations concerninc-the ecual crolo.v-nent opportunity and merit systems.

The law fi = also served as special outside counsel to a large bank holdinc company in conduct-ing an extensive investigation of prior activities by the con 9any's officers and enplcrees.

The specific areas which the soecial inc.ui n_ will enamine include the follcwing:

--the secuence of events during the accident, what was happening to the reactor and the plant,' including, where feasible, an assessment of important alternative secuencec ; the response of the operating personnel; radioactive releaser and exposures ;

events at the plant before the accident th a t ni g=:t be related to the accident.

--the history of the NRC review of the utility 's application for a license to operate Three Mile Island No. 2 7 NRC license conditions on TMI-2 operations, including technical specifica-tions; the ope; Iting and inspection his to' y at TMI-2 ; the operat-ing and inspection histories of other Babcock & Wilecx plants,

20555 IE Bulletin No.79-05A Date: April 14, 1979 Page 1 of 5 REVIEW OF OPERATIONAL ERRORS AND SYSTEM MISALIGNMENTS IDENTIFIED DURING THE THREE MILE ISLAND INCIDENT Description of Circumstances:

--~

IE Culletin 79-06 identified acticas to be tak?n by the licensees of all pressurized water power reactors (except Babcock & Wilcox reactors) as a result of the Three Mile Island Unit 2 incident.

This Eulletin clarifies the actions of Bulletin 79-CS for reactors designed by Westinghouse, and the response to this bulietin will eliminate the need to respond to Bulletin 79-05.

Actions to be taken by Licensees:

For all Westinghouse pressurized _ water reactor facilities with an operating license (the ac.tions specified below replace those identified in IE Bulletin 79-05 cn an item by item basis):

1.

Review the description of circumstances dascribed in Enc 1csure 1 of IE Bulletin 79-05 and' the preliminary chronology of the TMI-2 3/2S/79 accident included in Enclosure 1 to IE Bulletin 79-05A.

a.

This review should be directed toward understanding: (1) the extreme seriousness and consecuences of the simultaneous blocking of both auxiliary feedwater trains at the Three Mile Island Unit 2 plant and other actions taken during the early phases of the accident; (2) the apparent operational errors which led to the eventual core damage; (3) that the potential.

er.ists, under certain accident or transient conditions, to have a water level in the pressurizer sic.ultaneously with the reactor vessel not full of water; and (4) the necessity to systematically analyze plant conditions and parameters and take appropriate corrective action.

plant conditions (see Section 7a.); and (2) not make opera-tional dacisions based solely on a single pl n: parameter indication when one or core ccnfirmatory indicaticns are available.

... w.. %.

f IE Eulletin No.79-05A Date:

April 14,1979 Page 2 of 5 c.

All licensed operators and plant. management and supervisors with operational responsibilities shall participate in this review and such participation shall be documented in plant records.

2.

Review the actions required by yuur operating procedures for coping with transients and accidents, with particular attention to:

a.

Recognition,of the possibility of forming vcids in the primary coolant system large enough to ccmprcaise the core cooling capability, especially, natural circulation capability.

b.

Operation action required to prevent the formation of such

voids, c.

Operator actica required to enhance core cooling in the event such voids are formed (e.g., remote venting).

3.

For your facilities that use pressurizer water level coincident with pressurizer pressure for automatic initiation of safety injection into the reactor coolant system, trip the low pressurizer level set point bistablas such that, when the pressurizer pressure reaches the low set point, safety injectica wcyld be initiated regardless of the pressurizer level.

In addition, instruct operators to manually initiate safety injection when the prer.surizer pressure indication reaches the actuation set point whether or not the level indication has dropped to the actuatica setpoint.

4.

Review the contair$ ment isolaticn initiation design and procedures, and prepare and implement all changes necessary to permit -contain-ment isolatica whether manual or autcmatic, of all lines whose isolation does not degrade needed safety features or cooling capability, upon automatic initiation of safety injection.

5.

For facilities for which the auxiliary feedwater system is not automatically initiated, prepare and inplement immediately procc-dures which require the stationing of'an individual (with no other

~-~

assigned. concurrent duties and in direct and continuous cc munica-tion.with the control roca) to prcmotly initiate adequate auxiliary feedwat'er to the steam generatcr(s) for those transients or acci-s dents the consequences of which can be limited by such action.

344 277

a IE Eulietin No.79-06A Date:

April 14, 1979 Page 3 of 5 6.

For your facilities, prepare and imple. ment immediately procedures which:

Identify those plant indications (such as valve discharge a.

piping temperature, valve positicn indicatica, or valve discharge relief tank temperature or pressure indication) which plant operators may utilize to determine that pres-surizer pcwer operated relief valve (s) are cpen, and b.

Direct the plant operators to manually close the power operated relief block valve (s) when reactor coolant systea pressure is reduced to.below the se' point for normal auta-matic cicsure of the power operated elief valve (s) and the valve (s) remain stuck open.

. :t 7.

Review the a'ction directed by the operating procedures and training instructions to ensure that:

a.

Operators do not override cutcm=. tic actions of engineered

2fety feetures, unless continued operation of engineered safety features will result in unsafe plant conditions.

For exar:ple, if continued operatica of engineered safety features would threaten reactor vessel integrity then the HPI shculd be secured (as noted in b(2) belcu).

b.

Operating procedureh currently, or are revised to, specify that if the high pressure injection (HPI) systcm has.been autcratically actuated because of lcw pressure condition, it must rcmain in operation until ei.ther:

~~

(1)

Both lcw pressure injection (LPI) pumps are in operatica

~,

and flowing for 20 minutes or lcager; at a rate which would assure stable plant behavicr; or (2)

The HPI system has been in operation for 20 minutes, and all hot and cold leg temaeratures are at least 50 degrees' belcw the saturation temperature for the existing RCS pressure.

If 50 degress sub' cooling cannot be raintained

~~

after HPI cutoff, the HPI shall be rea~ctivated.

The degree of subccoling beyond 50 degrees F and the length (f time HPI is in operation shall be limited by the m

pressure / tempers:ure ccacideraticns for the ves:el integrity.

that in the event.of HPI initiatica with reactor coolant pumps (RCP) cperating, at least one RCP'shall, remain operating for two loop plants and at least two RC?s shall remain operating for 3 or 4 locp plants as long as the pump (s) is provicing forced ficw.

d.

Operators are provided additional information and instructions to not rely upon pressurizer level indication alone, but to a'so examine pr>essurizer pressure and other plant parameter indications in evaluating plant conditicns, e.g., water, inventory in'the reactcr primary system.

8.

Review all safety-related v'alve positions, positioning requirements and positive controls to assure that valves remain positioned (open or c'.osed) in a manner to ensure the proper operation of enginnered safety features.

Also review related procedures, such as those for maintenance, testing, plant and system startup, and supervisory periodic (e.g., daily / shift checks,) surveillance to ensure that such valves ai e returned to their correct pnsiticas folicwing necessary manipulations and are maintained in their prc' u-posi-tions durino all operational modes.

Page 1 cf 2 RE'/IEW OF OPERATIONAL ERRORS AND SYSTEM MISALIGNMENTS IDENTIFIED DURING THE THREE MILE ISLAND INCIDENT IE Sulletin 79-CEA ic ntified actions to ce taken by the licensees of all pressurized water reactors designed oy Llestinghouse.

Item "o. 3 of t'he actions to be taken, as stated in the original bulletin, was:

a "3.

For your facilities that use pressurizer water fevel coincident with pressurizer pressure T'r automatic initia-ticn of safety injection into the reactor coolant system, trip the lcw pressurizer level setpcir.t bistables such that, when the pressurizer pressure reaches the low setpoint, safety. injection would be initiated regardless of th.e pres-Surizer level.

In addition, instruct operatcrs to manually in;tiate safety injection when the pressurizer pressure indication reaches the actua ticn setpoint '.-hether or not tne level incicaticn nas croppec to the actuation setpoint.',

i.

Informaticn from licensees and Westinghouse has ideatified'that 1mo,lementation or this action houid prec. de tn.e per ormance cr survell-lu lance testing.of the pressurize pressure bistables without initiating a safety injection.

In order to permit surveillance testing of the pressurizer pressure bistables, the low pressurizer level bistables that must operate in coincidence with the low pressurizer pressure bistables may be restared to normal operation for the dur ation of the surveillance test of that coi"cident pressurizer pressure channal.

At the conclusion of the surveillante test ci each pressecizer pressure channel, the coincident pressurizer level chanc.el must te returncd to the tripped mcde defined in Action Item 3 cf IE bui te tin 79-CSA.

As a result, Item 3 should be revised as follows s
