Cintichem CintichemInc.(licensee),amanufacturerofradiopharmaceuticals, announced l

today that they are going to decommission their SMW research reactor in Tuxedo NY The licensee is a subsidiary of Medi-Physics, who is a subsidiary.of Hoffm6n-LaRoche, a Swiss Company. The reactor has been shut down since February 9,1990 and ordered to remain shutdown by an NRC Order dated February 13, 1990. Up to this time, the licensee was formulating plans to repair leaks in a concrete tank and pool and leaks in a ventilation duct.

Hatch Units 1 and 2 The labor dispute between the ARC health physics technicians and their company is still underway, although 28 of the 117 contract HPs reported for work on April 3.

Initially, only 7 of the HPs elected to cross the picket line. Over the last weekend, there was considerable absenteeism on the part of other contract employees, notably electricians and pipe fitters working for SINCO.

The licensee has been using GPC personnel to provide HP coverage, generally licensed operators who have had special HP training and other personnel who previously had served as HPs. All have been working under supervision of currently qualified plant HPs.

The outage activities at Unit 1 are now estimated to be about 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> behind schedule as a result of the strike with an additional slippage of about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> per day while the strike continues.

ECT Indication in Cold leg Steam Generator Tube Plug at McGuire Unit 1 Sample eddy current inspections, reconnended by B&W, performed during the current outage at McGuire Unit 1, revealed an indication in an SG tube plug installed on the cold leg side. The affected plug is a B&W rolled plug fabricated from heat 2848-2, which has been previously identified by B&W as being highly susceptible to PWSCC. This plug is being removed for APRIL 6, 1990 ENCLOSURE A

met +11urgical examination to determine the nature of the indication.

If the indication is confirmed to be a crack, this would represent the first known instance of PWSCC affecting either B&W or Westinghouse plugs on the cold leg side. A 100% sample inspection of hot and cold leg plugs has now been performed. The staff is continuing to monitor plug PWSCC performance and effectiveness of licensee programs to ensure plug integrity.

Meetings with Regions Between April 3 and April 10, 1990, meetings were held with each Region. The discussions addressed the status of the plants and the status of maintenance at each facility.

1 Meeting With NUMARC - Procurement On April 3,1990, DRIS staff met with the NUMARC Working Group on Nuclear Plant Equipment Procurement to discuss the status of the NUMARC initiatives on licensee procurement, dedication, and audit programs. NUMARC has scheduled an industry meeting the week of April 9,1990 to review in detail the initiatives with representatives from each utility to improve the industry's understanding of the initiatives and to request each utility to analyze the potential impact of implementation. The Working Group's plan is to present the initiatives to the NUMARC Board of Directors at the June 1990 meeting. NUMARC offered to meet with l

NRC after the June meeting to discuss the results of the Board deliberations and l

actions.

l OMB Clearance Obtained OMB has approved the information collection requirements contained in the Fitness-for-Duty Rule through March 31, 1993. The OMB approval was based on the understanding that the NRC rule conforms to the drug testing guidelines of the Department of Health and Human Services, and that the NRC rule will be revised to conform to revisions that HHS makes to its guidelines.

SAFEGUARDS AND TRANSPORTATION Domestic Transaction Data Reconciliation i

ApprovalwasgiventotheDepartmentofEnergy(DOE),ChicagoOperations Office, to examine all past Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System transactions with Monsanto Company Dayton, Ohio, a licensee, to reconcile material balance data on a DOE Project. DOE and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission routinely cooperate in this reconciliation process.

Tactical Response Teams Tactical Response Teams have now been deployed at the three Category I fuel facilities in accordance with new requirements. Tactical response and guard exercises, including the use of force-on-force techniques, have also commenced.

Twelve drills per year covering each shif t and all components of the security system are required by the recently published rule.

Meeting on TRUPACT-II Shipping Package (NUPAC) f On March 29, 1990, thestaffmetwithNuclearPackagin,Inc.lthickness to discuss _ planned corrective actions by NUPAC to reso ve wal discrepancies on completed TRUPACT-II' shipping packages. NUPAC intends to qualify a weld process to build up the base metal on fabricated units.

NUPAC also plans to fabricate additional new units without the wall s

thickness discrepancies.

Meeting on UF6 Cylinder Overpack On March 29, 1990, the Transportation Branch staff met with representatives of l

Nuclear Packaging, Inc., (NUPAC), to discuss a new concept for UF6 cylinder I

overpacks. The new overpacks would be constructed of' fiberglass inner and 1

outer shell, with foam insulation between the shells. Use of fiberglass could potentially increase the corrosion resistance of UF6 over)acks and extend their service life. At the meeting, the structural and tiermal properties of fiberglass were discussed, together with manufacturing methods, reproducibility i

.and quality control. NUPAC plans to conduct full-scale tests and to further study fiberglass material properties before an application is submitted to the NRC.

LANL is responsible for nuclide migration, geochemistry, mineralogy, and petrology studies on the Yucca Mountain Project.

The DOE audit was considered to be effective. The DOE audit team found that the LANL QA program is now adequate to control quality-related activities, and LANL should proceed with implementing their program. The effectiveness of the LANL QA program in the areas of audits, surveillances and corrective actions could not be determined as they have not been implemented. The HLWM staff agrees with the DOE audit team evaluation of the LANL QA program and will issue a report detailing its findings.

Office of Enforcement Items of Interest Week Ending April 6,1990 Significant Enforcement Action A Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $3,750 was issued on March 30, 1990 to Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (Millstone). The action was based on the shipment of a package of radioactively i

contaminated equipment that had external radiation levels on a small portion of the surface of the package in excess of regulatory limits. The escalation and mitigation factors in the Enforcement Policy were considered and the base amount of the civil penalty was increased by 50% due to the prior notice of such an event which was provided by an Information Notice in 1988.

(EN90-040)

A Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $2,500 was issued on April 3, 1990 to the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Newington, Connecticut. The action was based on: (1)thelicensee relieving the Radiation Safety Officer (RS0) of his radiation safety duties without appointing, and seeking NRC approval of, a new RS0; (2) failure to provide sufficient training to personnel working in the nuclear. medicine department (3) failure to perform certain required surveys or retain records of other surveys; (4) failure by the Radioisoto)e Committee to meet as required; and (5) failure to perform required checks of t1e dose calibrator. The escala-tion and mitigation factors in the Enforcement Policy were considered and although mitigation of the base civil penalty was warranted for the licensee's prompt and extensive corrective actions, this was offset by the fact that the NRC identified the violations. No other adjustment to the civil penalty amount was appropriate.

(EN90-041)

Civil Penalties Paid Indiana Michigan Power Company (D. C. Cook) paid the civil penalty in the amount of $75,000. The action was based on an inoperable Turbina-Driven Auxiliary 4

feedwaterPump(TDAFP).

(EA89-252)

The NRC and United States Testing Company (UST) settled the matter of two civil penalties that were proposed in September 1989. The first was for $100,000 at i

Severity Level I for violations of requirements:as to use of radiographers and assistant radiographers without completing required training, examination, and certification. The licensee argued that this penalty was based on incomplete information. Under the settlement agreement, this violation was accepted and UST paid the $100,000 civil penalty.

The second violation, also proposed for Severity Level I at $100,000 concerned performance of radiographic operations at a facility. UST argued that the operations were authorized by its license which permitted _ radiography at temporary job sites. The staff agreed that if those activities were in accor-dance with NRC requirements, they were conducted with reasonable assurance that public health and safety would be protected.

Iherapeutic Misadministration On March 16, 1990, J.F.K. Medical Center, Edison,. New Jersey, reported a therapeutic misadministration to a patient undergoing brachytherapy treatment to the lung. The misadministration occurred when the brachy -

therapy seeds (84 millicuries of Ir-192) were dislodged from the treatment i

area within the patient's lung.. The seeds, encased in a plastic ribbon, the were mistakenly taped to the patient's face by the attending nurse, i

The licensee made preliminary dose estimates of 1000 rads to the left side of the >atient's face, 282 rads to the eyes and 357 rads to the scalp.

since tie patient at one point folded the ribbon in her hair. The nurse who handled the ribbon received an estimated 17.6. rads to the fingers, t

The circumstances surrounding this incident and the licensee's actions are being examined by Region I.

Evaluation of the incident is continuing, including obtaining an NRC consultant physician to provide an independent medical assessment of the patient's condition, prognosis, and changes that may be necessary to prevent similar occurrences.

Seabrook Follow-up inspection to assess indicated high vibration of the inboard exciter bearing, the flexible cou)11ng between the generator and the exciter, determined that one of tie two gridmember (spring) layers had not been installed around the coupilng hub. The missing gridmember was installed, and the licensee is reviewing the installation error. Onsite assembly and installation of this bearing during construction was accomplished by the turbine manufacturer (GE). This bearing's 5 mil vibration was the only anomalous vibration indication during the turbine roll to 800 RPM.

Troubleshooting and calibration of the turbine speed control circuitry identified no major problems. Minor adjustments were made. On initial turbine roll af ter the maintenance, a turbine trip occurred at 140 RPM at 5:55 a.m., April 4.

The cause was initially attributed to failure to restore an electrical sliding link opened for the maintenance. The licensee placed a hold on turbine testing pending resolution of the error.

NHY evaluation of the cause is in progress.

_ Indian Point 2 Steam Generator Cracking j

~

Consolidated Edison. Company is continuing to inspect for and repair i

cracks.in the Indian Point Unit 2 steam generator shells. Weld repair of approximately a 17 foot long section of the No. 22 steam generator upper transition girth weld has been completed. Cracks in other sections of i

that weld and the upper transition girth welds in the other three steam generators are being ground out.

The scope of the inspections has been expanded, and cracking has been found where the feedwater ring support brackets are attached to the inside of the steam generator shells in all four steam generators and in a circumferential band approximately ten i

inches below the upper transition girth weld in the plate material that makes up the transition cone in steam generator No. 22. The feedwater spargers and thermal sleeves have been removed to allow inspection in the bore of the feedwater nozzles and extensive cracking has been found in the two nozzles inspected to date. Cracks also have been found in the. feed-water nozzle to pipe welds'in three of the steam generators. A material semple has been removed from the bore of one feedwater nozzle and from the plate material 10 inches below the transition girth weld for metallurgical evaluations.

Repair plans are being analyzed and qualified. A minimum of two to three weeks of additional inspection and repair activities are anticipated. NRC resident and specialist inspectors are following activities onsite. The licensee has committed to submit a written evaluation of the condition of the steam generators to NRC and the staff plans to meet with the licensee prior to plant restart to determine if the steam generators are acceptable for continued operation.

LaSalle Nuclear Power Station i

On March 28,1990, Unit 1 scrammed from 100 percent power. An insulator i

on the B phase line near the 1 East Main Transformer blew apart causing a differential current trip of the main generator. This resulted in the main turbine stop valves closing, which in turn, generated the reactor scram. A theory is that a short occurred and the arc-over caused the insulator to blow apart. The reason for the arc-over is not known. The insulator was replaced and the Unit started up on March 31, 1990.
