SUBJECT: .NRC INSPECTION REPORT N05, 50-325/89-28 AND 50-324/89-28

,

The NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) has been completed

i

for your Brunswick facility.

The facility was evaluated for the period

September 1, 1988 through August 31, 1989.

The reruits of the evaluation are

documented in the enclosed Interim SALP Report.

This report will be discussed

with you at a public meeting to be held at the Brunswick Media Center on

!

November 9, 1989, at 2:00 p.m.

-

The performance of your Brunswick facility was evaluated in the functional

.

areas of plant operations, _ radiological controls, maintenance / surveillance,

!

emergency preparedness, security, engineering / technical support, and safety

t

assessment / quality verification.-

Overall, the assessment indicates that

although mixed, Brunswick's performance was good.

Improvements were noted

in the functional areas of engineering / technical support and safety

assessment / quality verification.

Additionally,

security sustained the

superior performance of the previous assessment period.

Management attention to detail and oversight has been successful in

l

terminating the previously identified declining trend in the operations area

and improving the performance in the engineering / technical support and safety

assessment / quality verification areas.

A conservative approach to safety and

'

well managed evaluations was evident in the Brunswick response to hurricane

Hugo.

.The SALP board noted in characterizing several areas that performance was

mixed indicating that the board had some difficulty in arriving at the overall

-

positive tone of the assessment.

This is particularly obvious in the board

l

l

recommendations which predominately recommend that the NRC inspections continue

'

at a high level in the functional areas.

These staff recommendations are not

consistent with the definition of a SALP Category 2 and may be reflective of

the need for Brunswick to demonstrate improved performance in a more objective

manner, i.e. , via effective implementation of the Integrated Action Plan in

accordance with the committed schedule.

Any comments you have concerning our evaluation of the performance of your

Brunswick facility should be submitted to this office within 30 days following

the date of our meeting.

These comments will be considered in the development

of- the Final SALP Report.

Your comments and a summary of our meeting will be

issued as an appendix to the Final SALP Report.
