~g 8' o NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
$ $ WASHINGTON, D. C. 20655
\ l 2 6 1988 The Honorable William S. Broomfield United States House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515-2218
Dear Congressman Broomfield:
Thank you for your letter transmitting concerns raised by one of your constituents, Mr. John M. Rober ts. Mr. Roberts' concerns stem from newspaper articles that appeared in the Detroit Free Press and the Oakland Press.
The article in the Detroit Free Press cited claims that the Fermi-2 nuclear power plant is badly designed, that its managerrent has a poor safety attitude, ar.d that its reactor operators are inexperienced. The article nentions a 1985 incident where an operator started a nuclear chain reaction without knowing it.
In 1985, the NRC shared some of the. same concerns that are expressed in the newspaper article. The operator error cited in the article resulted in a civil penalty of $300,000, one of the largest civil penalties ever imposed by the NRC. In addition, the Commission issued an Order to the Fermi-2 licensee, the Detroit Edison Company (Deco). The Order set forth a number of concerns regarding the operation of Femi-2 and required DECO to address the following:
- 1. The adequacy of management, management structures and systems that had contributed to the poor performance of Femi-2.
- 2. The adequacy of training to ensure that responsible personnel recognized and appropriately responded to significant safety conditions.
- 3. Changes in control needed to ensure that Fenni-2 would better meet the NRC's regulatory requirements.
- 4. Actions planned to ensure that the plant is ready for restart and for readiness of the facility to support increasing power after testing is completed at each power ascension plateau. (The Cerrrnission imposed hold points in power increases at 20%, 50%, and 75%.)
- 5. i review of the management and system performance at each power ascension plateau, including who will perform the review, objective criteria for determining adequacy of perfomance at each plateau, and the manager who will authorize proceeding to the next plateau.
- 6. Actions planned to improve regulatory and operational perfonnance during and after the startup testing phase of operation.

Congressman Broomfield In response to the NRC's order, management changes at Fermi-2 have occurred and officers with nuclear experience have been hired. DECO has formed an independent overview ccmittee to provide corporate management with an evaluation of operation of Fenni-2. A security improvement program was begun.
Finally, DECO, in compliance with the Connission's Order, ccmitted to resolving system and equipment problems and to conducting a comprehensive control room monitoring plan that would allow corporate management to assess, in detail, control room performance.
As a result of the actions initiated by DECO, the NRC allowed Fermi-2 to restart and closely monitored the controlled power ascension program. On December 15, 1987, the NRC approved DECO's request for operation at 100% power, removing the last hold point. While the NRC believes that DECO has taken the proper steps to improve performance, we are continuing to closely monitor the effectiveness of DECO's management and its ability to implement the programs necessary to improve the performance of the plant.
Mr. Roberts also expressed concerns about safety standards at nuclear power plants in the U.S. since the Chernobyl disaster. The NPC believes that no imediate changes are needed in the NRC's regulations regarding the design or operation of commercial nuclear reactors in the United States. Nuclear design, shutdown margin, containment, and operational controls at reactors in the United States protect them against a combination of lapses such as those experienced at Chernobyl. Although the NRC has always acknowledged the possibility of major accidents, our regulatory requirements provide adequate protection informationagainst that maythe risks, particular suggest subject toweaknesses (1) continuing and (vigilance for any new
- 2) continuing measures to ensure compliance with the requirements.
Assessments made in the light of Chernobyl have indicated that the causes of the accident have been largely anticipated and accomodated for in the design of comercial reactors in the United States. Nonetheless, the Chernobyl accident reminds us of the continuing importance of safe design in both concept and implementation; of operational controls; of the competence and motivation of plant management and operating staff to operate in strict compliance with centrols; and of backup features of defense-in-depth against potential accidents.
I hope this will be helpful to you in your responding to Mr. Roberts. If we can be of any further assistance, please let us know.
Sincerely, ISigned) T. A, Hebm
