Senior Vice President, Nuclear
P. O. Box 1640
Jackson, MS 39205
Gentlemen:
SUBJECT:
REPORT NO. 50-416/83-10
This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Mr. A. G. Wagner of
this office on February 16 - March 11, 1983, of activities authorized by NRC
Operating License No. NPF-13 for the Grand Gulf facility.
Our preliminary
findings were discussed with Mr. A. K. McCoy, Plant Manager, at the conclusion of
the inspection.
Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in the
enclosed inspection report.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of
selective examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews with
personnel, and observations by the inspectors.
During the inspection, it was found that certain activities under your license
appear to violate NRC requirements.
These items and references to pertinent
requirements are listed in the Notice of Violation enclosed Mrewith as
Appendix A.
Elements to be included in your response are delineated in
Appendix A.
During the inspection it was found that certain activities under your license
appeared to deviate from previous commitments and have safety significance as
identified in the Notice of Deviation enclosed herewith as Appendix B.
Please
provide us in writing within 30 days of your receipt of this letter your comments
including a description of corrective actions that have t,een or will be taken,
corrective actions which will be taken to avoid further deviations, and the date
your corrective actions were or will be completed.
The NRC considered escalated enforcement action for the apparent inadequate
control of modifications and inadequate corrective actions discussed during an
enforcement conference conducted in the Region II office on April 20, 1983.
Specific concerns dealt with repetitive instances of failure to control
temporary alterations; the latest examples being item A of Appendix A to this
letter and the deviation identified in Appendix B.
Because of information you
presented'at the conference, it was determined that further action would not be
taken at this time.
However, results of future inspections will determine
whether additional enforcement action is appropriate.
We have examined actions you have taken with regard to previously identified
enforcement matters. These are discussed in the enclosed inspection report.
