SUBJECT: NRC EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION REPORTS 50-295/97008

(DRS); 50-304/97008(DRS) AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION  !

l

Dear Mr. Mueller:

l

On March 21,1997, the NRC completed an inspection at your Zion Generating Station i

Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within these areas, the

inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures and representative records,

l interviews with personnel, and observation of activities in progress.

l This inspection was to perform the emergency preparedness core inspection in NRC

Inspection Procedure 82701 and review the status of previous open inspection findings.

The report's Executive Summary provides an overview of our assessment of your

performance in Emergency Preparedness, an aspect of Plant Support. At the conclusinn of l

the inspection the findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in

the report.

l

The overall effectiveness of your emergency preparedness facilities, equipment, training,

l and functional organization was good. Plant personnel had performed conservatively I

during actual activations of the Emergency Plan, and emergency response facilities were

well-maintained. Quality assurance oversight of the program was also generally good.

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has determined that a violation of NRC

,

'

requirements occurred relative to failure to assess the adequacy of offsite interface during

the annual review of the Emergency Preparedness program. This violation is cited in the

enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice), and the circumstances surrounding it are described

in detail in the subject inspection report.
