SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-348/92-30 AND 50-364/92-30
,
This refers to the inspection conducted by M. D. Hunt of this office on
November 16-20, 1992.
The inspection included a review of activities autho-
rized for your Farley facility. At the conclusion of the inspection, the
findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the
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.
.
Within the scope of the inspection, violations or deviations were not identi-
fled. However_, our review of your GL 89-10 Motor Operated Valve (MnV) program
indicated that programatic issues associated with differential. pressure
testing to the maximum extent possible and the acceptability of using the
MOVATS data base for valve setup remains open. Additional information
regarding NRC inspection fitdings 50-348, 364/91-201-02-and 91-201-03 is
necessary for the NRC to complete the evaluation of the acceptability of your-
GL 89-10 M0V program.
You are requested to provide the following information:
Your ' plans for differential pressure -(d/p) testing to the maximum extent
practicable since the limited d/p testing that was performed during your
1992 indicated that M0 VATS data base and vendor calculations underpr-
,
edicted the required minimum thrust approximately: 25% of the time. This-
should also include your controls for selection and screening of valves
that will or will not be d/p -tested.
Information' that demonstrates that your M0V program will clearly document-
assumptions and margins used in the thrust calcul nions to compensate for
uncertainties in the MOVATS data base and vendor calculations.
