AUG 2 51993
Docket No. 50-483
Union Electric Company
ATTN: Mr. Donald F. Schnell
Senior Vice President - Nuclear
Post Office Box 149 - Mail Code 400
St. Louis, MD 63166
Dear Mr. Schnell:
This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Mr. B. L. Bartlett,
Ms. D. R. Calhoun, and others of this office from June 1 through July 31,
1993, of activities at Callaway Plant, Unit 1, authorized by NRC Operating
License NPF-30, and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. J. D. Blosser
and others of your staff 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.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice). The violation involved the failure to properly control
the design process to ensure that a modification scheduled for the next
i
refueling outage was properly designed and implemented.
We are concerned that
the weaknesses identified with the performance of pipe support design
activities were identified by the NRC instead of by your management,
independent assessment, or quality assurance audits.
In your response to the
I
Notice please address this concern.
Y
st
You are required to respond to this letter and should. follow the instructions
k;i
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to the
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of
this letter, the enclosures, and your responses to this letter will be placed
in the NRC Public Document Room.
