The subjset inspection report is forwarded for action.

<

During the inspection of Oyster Creek's (OC) meteorology program, the

,

inspector observed that the program fell far short of meeting the

-

recommmendations of Safety Guide 23 and at present is of little value.

Details are in the enclosed RO Inspection Report and Inspector's

Evaluations. Although the licensee is en==f teed to initiating a revis-

ed program meeting Safety Guide 23 in conjuetion with construction of

a new met tower, the timetable appears vague. If the construction is

j

likely to taka quite a while before complation, as we suspect, perhaps

i

something should be done to incorporate meteorology requirements (i.e.

i

S.C.23) into OC's Technical Specifications on a more timely basis. In

any event we'd like to make sure that this area is eventually covered

'

in OC's Technical Specifications.

The OC Technical Shcifications dealing with affluent monitoring should

,

i

be revised, as necessary, to specify for each type of sampling and

i

@

analysis a mi=f== detectable activity or minimur eensitivity. This

-

l

minimism activity / sensitivity should be consister4 with Safety Guide 21.

Also confidence level (suggest 95%) should be specified for this mini ==

activity / sensitivity. In addition and also in this area, the Technical

j.

Specifications covering the repo'rting of affluent totals should specify

)

l

that error estimates be reported along with the totals.
