Dear Mr. Stetz:

SUBJECT: ROUTINE RESIDENT INSPECTION AT DAVIS-BESSE (50-346/94013(DRP))

This refers to the inspection conducted by S. Stasek, C. Lipa, and D. Shepard

of this office on October 25, 1994, through December 8, 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

p-

and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of

activities in progress.

'

Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

I

to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of

Violation (Notice). Tha violation is of particular concern because it

J

involved wcaknesses in yo9r implementation of foreign material exclusion (FME)

[

controls around the reacte cavity and is the third such violation related to

4 1

FME issued since August 1994 (reference NRC inspection reports 50-346/94006

J

and 50-346/Nell). A management meeting with you and members of your staff

II

was held in the Region III office on November 14, 1994, to discuss, in part,

i}LlI

refueling outage related issues including those involving FME.

p

i

Although 10 CFR 2.201 would normally require you to submit a written statement

of explanation to this office within 30 days of the date of this letter

transmitting the enclosed Notice, we note that you now appear to be

impleenting sufficient corrective actions to prevent further recurrence.

Those actions were reviewed during this inspection as documented in the

j

enclosed report. Therefore, no response with respect to this matter is

required at this time.

In addition, certain other of your activities also appeared to be in violation

of NRC requirements. Specifically, a spent fuel pool (SFP) gate was lifted

over the SFP without an operable emergency ventilation system in violation of

I

your Technical Specifications. However, as described in the enclosed

inspection report, the violation was identified by licensee personnel,

ft

adequate corrective actions were taken, and appropriate notifications made.

'

Therefore, this violation will not be subject to enforcement action because

]

your efforts in identifying and correcting the violation met the criteria
