Docket No. 50-271
Mr. Warren P. Murphy
Senior Vice President, Operations
Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation
RD 5, Box 169
Ferry Road
Brattleboro, Vermont 05301
Dear Mr. Murphy:
SUBJECT: INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-271/92-25
This letter refers to the safety inspection conducted by Mr. A. L. Della Greca of this office
on December 14-18, 1992, at the plant site in Vernon, Vermont, Mr. Della Greca discussed
the inspection findings with Mr. D. A. Reid and other members of your staff on
December 18, 1992.
The inspection was directed toward areas important to public health and safety. The areas
examined are described in the NRC Region I Inspection Report that is enclosed with this
letter and included your corrective actions to nine previously identified issues. Within these
areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures, representative
records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.
Corrective actions for six of the previously identified issues were found to be acceptable and
they are closed. However, corrective actions pertaining to the environmental qualification of
equipment not included in the Technical Specifications, to the surveillance of the service
water system, and to the protection of the diesel fuel oil during extremely cold temperature
were not sufficient for closure of the issues. Your attention is requested to address r ad
resolve these remaining concerns to ensure that the systems involved are capable of
performing their safety functions.
