Subject:

NRC Inspection Report No. 50-309/90-09

i

A routine radiological controls inspection was conducted by Mr. R. L. Nimitz

i

at the Maine Yankee Power Station on May 7-11, 1990.

The areas reviewed during the inspection are discussed in the enclosed

,

report. The principal focus of the inspection was to review your radiological

controls for the outage. The results of the inspection were discussed with

Mr. E. T. Boulette and other members of your staff on May 11, 1990.

Within the scope of this inspection, no apparent violations were identified.

The observations by the inspector indicated improvement in the radiological

planning and control of outage work activities.

The radiological planning for-

the thermal shield repair was considered of good quality.

.The inspection did identify a need to improve the radiological oversight of

' steam generator work act.ivities.

In addition, there appears to be a need to

improve communications within the station organization _to ensure that worker

concerns are resolved. Also,.it appears'that. radiation protection management

issued a Night Order that superceded approved plant procedures. This matter

i

is. unresolved and:will be reviewed during a future inspection.

No response to this letter is required.

.Your cooperation with us is appreciated.

,.

Sincerely,

p
