Why the violation occurred and what corrective actions have or will be implemented to prevent--
recurrence of this type of problem.
I Why immediate action was not taken-to correct I
the problem when identified by the resident I
inspector.
Why the corrective action program was not utilized j
for this issue and whether programs or mechanisms i
exist which allow bypassing the corrective action program.
How NRC Bulletin responses are handled and how issues processed by this method enter the corrective action program for evaluation.
Whether the Nuclear Experience Review program processed this issue including how it was dispositioned by that program and whether an operability determination was made.
TVA's apparent failure to process a safety evaluation! for Revision 7 to Emergency Instruction E-0 including:
3 Why the revised.50.59 program under STD 6.1.3, '
t impiemented to correct this type of' problem, allowed this violation to happen and what corrective actions have or will be implemented to prevent recurrence of this type of problem.
Why the safety assessment for Revision 8 is:
significantly different than the one for Revision 7 and what implications this has on the implementation of the new program.
