Gentlemen:
This refers to the routine inspection conducted by Messrs. R. D. Walker
and S. E. Shepley of this office on January 5, 1981 through February 6,
1981, of activities at the LaSalle County Nuclear Station, Unit 1,
authorized by NRC Construction Permit No. CPPR-99 and to the discussion
of our findings with Mr. R. H. Holyvak at the conclusion of the inspection.
The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during
the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective
examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and
interviews with personnel.
During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in
noncompliance with hTC requirements, as described in the enclosed
Appendix A, and a written response is required.
This is the second
occurrence of the out-of-service procedure being violated within a
12 month period (See Report No. 50-373/80-05).
In addition, Reports
No. 50-373/80-16, No. 50-373/80-43, and No. 50-373/80-56 document
incidents that have occurred in the last year, which appear to have
been caused by inadequate control of construction employees engaged
in work activities. Each of these incidents individually represent
only a minor safety concern.
The incidents taken collectively represent
a major safety concern particularly with respect to control of con-
l
struction employee work activities during the critical startup and power
ascension period for Unit No. 1.
Your written response should address
'
additional controls which you plan to implement to assure that the Unit
I startup and power ascension will proceed smoothly and safely despite
continuing construction activities at the LaSalle site.
