SUBJECT:
LICENSING ACTIVITIES COORDINATION FOR THE WOLF CREEK PLANT l
(DN:
50-482)
In response to item 4 of the W. Dircks memorandum on " Actions for Plants with Near Term Licensing Activity," we make the following recommendations:
1.
Region IV be assigned the lead role to nianage the completion of the inspection program and related activities.
Region IV would assign a
. senior executive, Richard P. Denise, full time in this effort.
The appropriate management infrastructure would also be assigned.
2.
Region III support Region IV in completing the inspection proc:am in
_~
selected areas where a significant economy of NRC resources can be achieved through the utilization of Region III personnel with unique qualifications due to the Region III inspection experience on the Callaway plant.
f_
3.
NRR assign a senior executive to manage NRR licensing activities, and to i
coordinate these activities with the Region IV senior executive in the
-j development of an integrated schedule and execution of the required 4
effort.
4.
Contractors be utilized to'the maximum extent in completing the inspection program.
i These recommendations are made on the bases of most assured completion of the NRC efforts on schedule, continuity of effort and available resources in Region IV, economic utilization of Region III resources, and projection of 2
s Waterford and Comanche Peak activities.
=
Of fundamental importance is the projection of the Waterford and Comanche Peak.
efforts, and their associated commitment of Region IV resources. We project that Region IV resources now devoted to the Waterford plant will be available for reassignment to the Wolf Creek plant by about June 8, 1984. We also project, based on discussions with T. Ippolito, that RIV resources directly j
assigned to the Comanche Peak Task Force will not exceed about five full time people.
In addition, we project that Region IV personnel now performing the
-m special inspection at Comanche Peak will complete this task by about
.mid-July 1984, and be available for reassignment to the Wolf Creek plant inspection effort.

-Also of fundamental.importance is the cooperation of Region III'in assist.ing Region IV in the inspection effort. Because of the Callaway plant inspection experience, Region III is able-to provide beneficial advice and guidance in
.the' inspection-of the Wolf treek plant.
In addition, Region III could, most
-economically,. provide specific assistance to, Region IV in the review of operating procedures (including emergency procedures), review of surveillance and maintenance procedures related to Technical Specifications,iinspection for conformance with fire protection requirements, and the witnessiWg and evaluation of preoperational tests. While we would need to work out specific-assistance areas with Region III, and the related; resource commitments, we estimate that such assistance would take about 36 man weeks.
- The EG&G Company is currently > assisting Region IV in the inspection effort,
,primarily in'the closeout of IE Bulletins. We would continue this effort, additionally employ EG&G on the followup of 50.55(e) items and the closecut of
. violations, and maximize the use.cf EG&G in other appropriate areas. -This would require. funding of about 5110,000.
Region IV would mount a-major effort in as-built verification, in addition to completion of 2512, 2513, and 2514 modules.
A very preliminary estimate of resources required from Region IV is 160' inspector-weeks.
The followup of allegations is not projected to be a large effort at this time since they are currently limited in number and scope.
-While the fuel load date remains somewhat uncertain, the utility currently projects fuel load in October 1984. A prompt commitment to responsibilities and resources as outlined above, should permit completion of NRC efforts in November 1984.
'We would appreciate your support of this planned approach, and an early
' decision on it.
John T. Collins Regional Administrator.
