Dear Mr. Stetz:
SUBJECT:
ROVIINE RESIDENT INSPECTION AT DAVIS-BESSE (50-346/940ll(DRP))
This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. S. Stasek, J. Shine,
D. Kosloff, and D. Shepard of this office on September 14, 1994, through
October 25, 1994.
The inspection included a review of activities authorized
for your Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station.
At the conclusion of the
inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff
identified in the enclosed report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report.
Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice). The violation is of concern because it involved
weaknesses associated with foreign material exclusion (FME) controls for the
reictor cavity / refuel canal area. Since similar FME weaknesses were
pr(viously identified associated with the spent #
' pool (reference NRC
in;pection report 50-346/94006), we conclude your m lowup actions to that
earlier incident were not sufficiently effective to prevent the subject
violation from occurring.
The NRC is concerned that the potential
,
consequences to plant safety of inadequately implemented FME controls is not
fully recognized by many personnel at Davis-Besse.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
'
response. you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whet S r further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC N.gulatory requirements.
