SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-445/92-47; 50-446/92-47 (NOTICE OF
VIOLATION)
This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. W. B. Jones, and the inspectors
identified in the attached report, of this office on October 11 through
November 25, 1992.
The inspection included a review of activities authorized
for the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station, Units 1 and 2, facility. At the
conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed with you and those
members of your staff identified in the enclosed 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
activitles in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain licensed activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice).
The first violation reflects a lack of awareness for
controlling material used on safety-related components.
The second violation
is of particular concern because rigging activities involving heavy loads
around the reactor vessel head could have caused significant damage to the
refueling cavity wall or reactor vessel head components.
Two unresolved items were identified during this inspection.
One involved the
configuration control process in place and the corrective actions taken in
response to licensee identified events. -The second involved radiological
worker practices relating to recent contamination events that resulted in
uptakes to contract employees. -These matters are discussed in Sections 2.3
and 2.4, respectively, of the enclosed inspection report.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
7
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
