Gentlemen:
Subject:
Inspection No. 50-354/88-01
This transmits the findings of the routine resident safety inspection by
Mr. R. Borchardt and Mr. D. Allsopp conducted from January 5,1988 to February
8,1988 at the Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Hancocks Bridge, New
Jersey. The inspection consisted of observation of activities, document
reviews a'nd interview $.
The findings were discussed with Mr. S. LaBruna of
your staff.
Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that one of your
activities was not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as
set forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.
You are required to respond to this letter and in preparing your response, you
should follow the instructions in Appendix A.
The violation involves the lack of a required waste discharge isolation valve
trip function and the failure of Technical Specification required surveillance
tests to identify this discrepancy. We are concerned that similar violations
were cited in NRC Inspection Report 50-354/87-16 and that your corrective action
in response to those violations did not result in a more timely identification
and correction to this problem. Consequently, in your reply to this violation,
please provide your assessment of the effectiveness of the previous corrective
actions and those remedial actions necessary to assure that future actions are
fully effective.
The letter also acknowledges receipt of your January 15, 1988 response to the
violation cited in the NRC Inspection Report 50-354/87-17. As discussed in
the enclosed report, those corrective actions were found to be acceptable.
The responses directed by this letter and the accompanying Notice are not
subject to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget
as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-511.
