SUBJECT: NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-413/96-15 AND 50-414/96-15

Dear Mr. McCollum:

On October 12. 1996, the NRC completed its inspection effort associated with

the Unit 1 steam generator replacement at your Catawba Nuclear Station. The

enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.

~

In general, management and execution of the steam generator replaccment ,

activities were good Preparation and planning for the outage was evident in i

several areas where good results were achieved. These areas included facility

preparations, removal and storage of old steam generators, fit-up of new steam

generators.'and startup testing. In addition, overall radiation protection

performance during the outage was very good because of an effective crud burst ,

! and ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) exposure planning. Manual I

secondary system welding proved to be an area of significant challenge. as i

evidenced by the number of problems encountered due, in part, to insufficient i

preparation and training. l

l

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

this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room

,

(PDR).

Sincerely, i
