Gentlemen.

.

This refers to the inspection conducted by Dr. D. B. Spitzberg of this office

and other accompanying personnel during the period November 14-16, 1989, of

activities authorized by NRC Operating License DPR-34 for Fort St. Vrain

Nuclear Generating Station, and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. A.

Clegg Crawford,_ Vice President - Nuclear Operations and other members of your

staff at the. conclusion-of the inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection included the implementation of the

emergency plan and procedures during the annual emergency response exercise.

Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of

procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and

observations by the inspectors.

The inspection findings are documented in the

enclosed inspection report.

Within the scope of the inspection, no violations or deviations were

identified.

Your staff response to the' exercise was considered to be excellent and assures

an emergency preparedness program adequate to protect the health and safety of

the public.

The enclosed report, however, identifies exercise weaknesses in

your emergency preparedness program. Weaknesses involved the following:

diversion of key control ~ room personnel from direct reactor evaluation and

control activities, failure of emergency response teams to follow adequate

health physics practices, and inadequacy of the plant public address system's

audibility in certain onsite locations.

Exercise weaknesses'according to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.IV.F.5, are

inspection findings that need to be corrected by the licensee.

You are

requested to provide this office with a description of your corrective measures

l

and your schedule for completing these actions within 30 days after receipt of

this letter.

'!>

We have also examined actions you have taken with regard to previously

identified inspection findings.

The status of these items is identified in

paragraph.2 of the enclosed report.
