Areas examined during this inspection included systems selected from one acci-
I
dent sequence documented in the Millstone Unit 1 probabilistic risk assessment
1
(NUREG/CR-3085). The equipment inspection focused on the availability of
critical components as evidenced by plant conditions and implementation of
programs to assure operability.
In addition, this inspection examined the
l
ability of the Millstone staff to utilize procedures and equipment to recover
l
from accident sequences. These areas are described in the NRC Region I Inspec-
tion Report which is enclosed with this letter.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of
procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observa-
tion of equipment and simulated activities by the inspectors.
Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that several activities
were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set forth in
the Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.
These violations
have been categorized by severity level in accordance with the revised NRC
Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C) published in the Federal Register
Notice (49 FR 8583) dated March 8,1984. You are required to respond to this
letter and in preparing your response, you should follow the instructions in
Appendix A.
The responses directed by this letter and the accompanying Notice are not
i
subject to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget
'
