Mr. Robert E. Denton
Vice President Nuclear Energy

Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant
1650 Calvert Cliffs Parkway
Lusby, Maryland 2065-4702
Dear Mr. Denton:
Subject: NRC Region i Resident inspection Report Nos. 50-317/92-27 and 50-318/92-27
(October 11,1992 - November 21,1992)
This report transmits the findings of the safety inspection conducted by the resident inspectors
at the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant. At the conclusion of the inspection, these findings
were discussed with Mr. Cruse of your staff.
Areas examined during this inspection are described in the NRC Region I inspection Report
which is enclosed with this letter (Enclosur: 1) and were selected to ensure that your facility is
operated with due regard for the public heakh and safety. Within these areas, the inspection
consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative records, int:rviews with
personnel, and observations by the inspectors. Overall, we have concluded that your facility was
operated safely.
Based on the results of this inspection, one apparent violation was identified and is being
considered for escalated enforement action in accordance with the " General Statement of Policy
and Procedure for NRC Enforcemeut Actions" (Enforcement Policy),10 CFR Part 2, Appendix
C (1992). The apparent violation, discovered by BG&E personnel, was that the common
midaum flow recirculation line for all emergency core cooling system (ECCS) pumps was
iMated dunng part of the monthly surveillance testing Under certain conditions, if a small
bre; A loss of coolant accident had occurred while the recirculation line was isolated, the pumps
could have been damaged unless prompt operator action was taken. The practice ofisolating the
recirculation line during surveillance testing had been in place since plant startup in 1974. No
Notice of Violation is presently being issued for these inspection findings. In addition, please
be advised that the number and characterization of apparent violations oescribed in the enclosed
inspection report may change as a result of further NRC review.

January 7,1993. This enforcement conference will be open to public observation in accordance ,
with the Commission's trial program as discussed in the enclosed Federal Register notice
(Enclosure 2). The purposes of this conference are to discuss the apparent violation, its cause
and safety significance; to provide you the opportunity to point out any errors in our inspection
report; and to provide an opportunity for you to present your proposed corrective action. In i
particular, we expect you to discuss why the plant licensed operators did not recognize the
'
consequences of isolating the ECCS pump minimum flow recirculation line; and what previous
opportunities you had to discover and correct this problem. In addition, this is an opportunity
for you to provide any information concerning your perspective on 1) the severity of the issue,
2) the factors that the NRC considers when it determines the amount of a civil penalty that may
be assessed in accordance with Section VI.B.2 of the Enforcement Policy, and 3) the possible
basis for exercising discretion in accordance with Section Vil of the Enforcement Policy. You .
will be advised by separate correspondence of the results of our deliberations on this matter. No
response regarding the apparent violation is required at this time.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "!!ules of Practice," a copy of this letter and
. its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
Your cooperation with us is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Charles W. liehl, Director
Division of Reactor Projects
