SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-382/96-12 AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION

l

Dear Mr. Sellman:

An NRC inspection was conducted September 1 through October 12,1996, at your

l

Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 reactor facility. The enclosed report presents the

scope and results of that inspection.

Dui!ng the 6-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of operations,

i

mainenance, engineering, and plant support was generally good. We are concerned,

l

however, about two violations of NRC requirements that were identified. The first violation

is of concern because personnel continue to violate procedural requirements specifying the

,

use of measuring and test equipment. The second violation is of concern because the

appropriate engineering analyses were not performed to qualify the wet cooling tower

'

basin water as a source of emergency feedwater.

These violations arc cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) and the

circumstances surrounding the violations are described in detailin the enclosed report.

l

Please note that you are required to respond to this letter and should follow the

l

instructions specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. The NRC will

l

use your response, in part, to determine whether further enforcement action is necessary

to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter,

its enclosure (s), and your response will ' e placed in the NRC Public Document Room

c

l

(PDR). To the extent possible, your response should not include any personal privacy,

l

l

proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without

redaction.
