SUBJECT:
MCGUIRE UNIT 2 RESTART This refers to a telephone conference on September 8, 1993. The following l
people participated: S. Ebneter, E. Merschoff, A. Gibson, J. Johnson, J. Jaudon, D. Matthews, G. Maxwell, M. Lesser, C. Casto, T. McHeekin, G. Gilbert, and E. Geddie.
In accordance with my Confirmation of Action Letter (CAL) to you, dated September 1, 1993, you notified me in a ietter, dated September 7, 1993, and by a supplement to that letter dated September 13, 1993, that a Significant Event Investigation Team (SEIT) and p ur McGuire staff had completed a comprehensive investigation of the steam leak event that occurred on August 31, 1993.
The recommendations of the SEIT which are documented by letter, d'ated September 5,1993, and by a supplement to that letter, dated September 6, 1933, were evaluated by your staff. Specifically, you proposed the following corrective actions:
1)
Operability of the ice condenser shall be fully verified including assuring the required ice inventory, operation of the lower inlet i
l doors, and that drains are clear snd frost build-up will not adversely affect the performance of the ice condenser.
2)
An evaluation of all equipment in containment exposed to elevated temperature, humidity and water shall be completed to ensure capability to perform the safety function is not adversely impacted. This shall include considerations of environmental qualifications of affected components.
3)
Evaluate the consequences of improper maintenance on other l
Kerotest parkless valve applications and take appropriate corrective actions.
4)
Immediately suspend on-line pipe cap removals on pressurized high-energy systems until enhancements are made in the process for verifying amount of leakage through isolation valves.

Your short-term corrective actions are sufficiently comprehensive to resolve the problems identified, and their completion has been verified by the Senior Resident Inspector.
In addition, we agree that your long-term corrective actions are sufficiently comprehensive to resolve the root cause of the problems identified during the event review, with the exception of your operator training schedule.
You have agreed to reevaluate your March 1994 completion date for developing and presenting a case study training lesson for this entire event to all licensed operators.
Based on your completed and planned corrective actions, I concurred with your intention to enter Mode 2 and restart McGuire Unit 2 during the referenced telephone conversation on September 8, 1993, and in accordance with the facility Technical Specifications.
Sincerely,
