SUBJECT:

VERMONT YANKEE INSPECTION 92 24

This refers to the resident safety inspection conducted by Messrs. H. Eichenholz and

P. Harris on November 29,1992 - January 2,1993, at the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power

Station, Vernon, Vermont. The preliminary results of the inspection were discussed with

Mr. D. Reid at the conclusion of the inspection. The inspection focused on issues important

to public health and safety, and consisted of performance observations, the conduct of control

'

room operations, and independent verifications of sJuy aystem status.

During the inspection, we noted safe operation and good efforts to resolve discrepancies

involving fire barrier penetration seals. Enforcement discretion was exercised for an

Appendix B corrective action violation involving a service water pump motor heater

deficiency. Your recent corrective actions were comprehensive and the under. ired heater

had no effect upon pump operability.

,

No reply to this report is necessary and your cooperation with us is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Originia Signed Br.
