SUBJECT:
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-302/93-27)
This refers to the inspection conducted by J. J. Lenahan of this office on
November 8 - 12, 1993. The inspection included a review of activities
authorized for your Crystal River facility. At the conclusion of the
inspection, tie findings were discussed with those members of your staff
identified in ?he enclosed report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
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).
Violation A lists seven examples of failure to implement the written
requirements of the reactor building tendon surveillance program.
This
violation is of concern because the examples listed in the violation show
failure of your personnel to perform adequate oversight of the tendon
surveillance contractor, and failure of the Quality Control (QC) inspector to
properly document and inspect the tendon surveillance activities.
Violation B is of concern because of your misinterpretation of the provisions
of Technical Specification 4.02 issued by Amendment 128 of the Technical
Specifications which permits extending surveillance intervals by 25 percent.
Your attention is invited to the Safety Evaluation Report which supports
Technical Specification Amendment 128, the Bases for Technical Specification 4.02 (Amendment 128), and the guidance provided in NRC Generic letter 89-14
which state that allowance for extending surveillance intervals can not be
used repeatedly merely as operational convenience to extend surveillance
intervals beyond those specified.
