NOTICE OF VIOLATION Union Electric Company Docket No. 50-483 Callaway Plant License No. NPF-30 During an NRC inspection conducted on September 13 through 17, 1993, three violations of NRC requirements were identified.
In accordance with the
" General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the violations are listed below:
1.
10 CFR 50.47 states, in part, that " adequate methods, systems, and equipment for assessing and monitoring actual or potential offsite consequences of a radiological emergency condition are in use."
The Callaway Plant Radiological Emergency Response Plan states that "the Radiological Release Information System (RRIS) provides near real-time predictions of atmospheric transport and diffusion estimates of radioactive releases."
Contrary to the above, on September 14, 1993, the RRIS did not provide an accurate near real-time prediction of atmospheric transport and diffusion estimate of a radioactive release when it's capabilities were demonstrated.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement VIII).
2.
10 CFR 50.54(q) requires that a licensee authorized to possess and operate a nuclear power reactor shall follow and maintain in effect emergency plans which meet the standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50.
The Callaway Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Section 8.1.1, states, in part, that periodic retraining is conducted to update the knowledge and skills of onsite personnel.
Contrary to the above, periodic retraining of personnel provided on May 7, 1993, for the Emergency Response Organization position of Dose Assessment Coordinator was not effective in updating their knowledge and skills in the functional use of the RRIS.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement VIII).
3.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section F.5, states that "all training, including exercises, shall provide for formal critiques in order to identify weak or deficient areas that need correction.
Any weaknesses or deficiencies that are identified shall be corrected."
Contrary to the above, no corrective actions were taken on deficiencies identified for the Radiological Assessment Course, T68.1090.8, held on July 28, 1992.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement VIII).
