Subject:

Inspection Report No. 50-333/90-05

This letter transmits the results of the routine inspection conducted by Messrs.

f

W. Schmidt and R. Plasse of this of fice on July 1 through August 11, 1990 at the.-

James

A.

FitzPatrick Nuclear . Power Plant, Scriba, New York.

Mr. Schn.dt

j

discussed the inspection findings with you and other members of your staf f at the

'

conclusion of the inspection.

Your staff identified an instance in which, at different times on hourly fire

,

L

watch patrols, nine security personnel entered e posted high radiation area

without following your radiation protection program for such entries. Your staf f

did a credible ' job -in identifying this violation and in taking corrective.

actions, and we considered not citing this violation based on the NRC's licensee'

identified violation' policy.

However, as nine individuals, trained in your-

,

i

procedures, inappropriately entered the posted area, we have concluded that prior

corrective actions regarding compliance with radiological control procedures were

not effective.

Further, this incident represents another example of your

personnel being' insensitive to potentially adverse radiological consequences.

,

'In your response to this violation, please address this aspect of the incident.

l

'

Your performance of the high pressure coolant injection to the vessel was a well

planned and executed initiative. The information you have developed is valuable

L

for verification of continued satisf actory system performance. We encourage you

.,

l

to share this ~ information with the other BWRs through industry information

j

P

systems.

Sincerely,

J
