Docket No. 50-341L

Portland General Electric Company

ATTN: Mr. Bart D. Withers,

Vice President, Nuclear

121 S. W. Salmon Street

Portland, Oregon 97204

Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection performed by Messrs. E. W. Merschoff, E. T. Baker,

R. McIntyre, and K. Naidu of the Vendor Program Branch on August 9 and 12-16,

1985, at the Trojan Nuclear Power Station and your offices at Portland, Oregon.

The inspection related to activities authorized by NRC License No. NPF-1. Our

findings were discussed with Mr. P. Yundt and others of your staff at the

conclusion of the inspection.

The purpose of the inspection was to review your receipt, evaluation, and

implementation of actions on selected vendor supplied information. In addition,

procurement actions taken to support modifications performed during the last

outage were reviewed. The inspectors reviewed documents and activities

authorized under the provisions of NRC License NPF-1, and discussed their

findings with plant staff members identified in Section 1 of the report. The

findings demonstrate a significant deficiency in the area of safety related

procurement. In addition, weaknesses were noted in your implementation of an

effective Part 21 reporting program, your vendor interface system, and your

control and documentation of post modification testing. In particular, your

Part 21 program has failed to produce a timely evaluation of the charging pump

speed increaser deficiency or to require an evaluation of the circuit breaker

deficiency noted in the report. Your vendor interface system has been

ineffective with regard to implementation or evaluation of recomendations

made by the manufacturer of your emergency diesel generators. Finally, the

lack of records to indicate that all the required tests had been performed for

the main steam isolation valve and auxiliary feedwater modifications

demonstrate a weakness in your control of post modification testing. The

areas of safety related procurement and Part 21 reporting have been identified

as Potential Enforcement Findings, and may result in enforcement actions.

Resolution of the two Potential Enforcement Findings will be handled by the

NRC Region V office. Further, there are four (4) Unresolved Items that require

additional information before further action (if any) can be taken. NRC

Region V will also handle resolution of these items.
