'y, J. G. Keppler, Chief, Reactor Testing & Operations Branch Directorate of Regulatory Operations, HQ RO INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-219/72-05 JERSEY CENTRAL POWER & LIGHT O(3tPANT
, OYSTER CREEK - BWR The subject inspection report is forwarded for your information.
Six violations were identified in this report and a letter has been sent to the licensee regarding these matters. Based upon the concerns in the radiological area identified by this report I
and a subsequent inspection (R0 Report 50-219/73-02) of this l
subject area, a corporate level management meeting was held on March 1, 1973. The licensee appears to be responding to the issues; we are following these matters closely.
It is my opinion that one of the underlying problems at this facility is the lack of capacity of the plant to process liquid radioactive wasta.- Ity concerns in this area are further highlighted when I see long times between regeneration of domineralisers, i.e., up to 125 d gs. This facility also g.g has experienced main condenser tee leaks as referenced in this report.
l
.j A flaking condition was observed on irradiated fuel channels.
l l
Sanples are to be shipped to GE for metalographic studies.
We will inform you of the findings when available.
I A number of mainten=ce type items are covered in the report with apparent causes ranging from past to current QC problems.
-We are currently pursuing the QA for operations issue with 4
this licensee and are making progress.
