President, TVA Nuclear and Chief Nuclear Officer 6A Lookout Place 1101 Market Street Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801

SUBJECT:

PLANT PERFORMANCE REVIEW (PPR) - SEQUOYAH

Dear Mr. Kingsley:

On October 7,1996, the Regional staff completed the semiannual Plant Performance Review (PPR) of Sequoyah. The staff conducts these reviews for all operating nuclear >ower plants to develop an integrated understanding of  ;

safety performance. T1e results are used by Regional management to facilitate l planning and allocation of inspection resources. The PPR for Sequoyah  !

involved the participation of all technical divisions in evaluating inspection results and safety performance information for the period from March 1996 through August 1996. PPRs provide Regional management with a current summary of licensee aerformance and serve as inputs to the NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee )erformance (SALP) and Senior Management Meeting (SMM) reviews.

i This letter advises you of our planned inspection effort resulting from the l Sequoyah PPR review. It is provided in an attempt to minimize the resource impact on your staff and to allow for scheduling conflicts to be resolved in advance of inspection dates. The enclosure presents our inspection plan for .

the next six months. Specific dates are included for near term inspections. l Long term inspection dates will be announced prior to the inspections and any scheduling conflicts will be resolved with your staff. The rational or basis for each inspection outside the core inspection program is provided so that you are aware of the reasons for em)hasis in these program areas. Resident inspections are not listed due to t1eir ongoing and continuous nature nor are  !

region based inspections which accomplish resident core modules to compensate l for resident inspector absences. j During each NRC inspection planned during this period, specific attention will l continue to be given to the verification of selected Updated Final Safety Analysis Re> ort (UFSAR) commitments. Applicable portion (s) of the UFSAR that relate to t1e inspection activities will be reviewed and verification made that the UFSAR commitments have been properly implemented into plant practices, procedures and/or parameters.
