MAR 161988 MEMORANDUM FOR: Richard Knop, Branch Chief FROM:
Walt Rogers, Senior Resident Inspector, Fermi 2
SUBJECT:
OSTI FINDINGS AND THEIR DISPOSITION Enclosed is a draft letter for management consideration on a programatic method of resolving the OSTI findings and potential enforcement associated with the OSTI findings.
I recognize that this proposal represents the utilization of significant DRS support.
However, a number of these findings are directed in areas where DRS does most of the inspections.
Fermi has never had the master inspection program implemented because of management decisions based on the unique status and the resource intensive method of team inspections to review plant operations during the past 21 years. These inspections would be excellent at establishing a baseline from which to start the master inspection program.
I feel a surveillance program inspection is warranted given the major changes to the surveillance tracking / scheduling system that is taking place. The surveillonce program has been one of the weakest programs at Fermi since licensing.
Presently, I am working on another potential escalated enforcement
{
package involving missed surveillances during August and September 1987.
The review of I&C procedures is definitely warranted given the total rewrite of the licensee's I&C procedures and the deficiencies identified by Dave Butler in IER 87044.
I strongly recomend that Dave review these procedures to provide the NRC wtth some confidence factor that the procedures are meeting commitments by the licensee.
The onsite/offsite committee activities other than during team inspections have never been inspected at Fermi. The licensee has undergone a number of significant organizational and personnel changes in the last year. One of these changes included the appointment of a new QA manager and QA reorganization since the last QA inspection in July / August 1987.
I feel that inspections in these areas would be of benefit.
Operational performance continues to show a need for improvement. The HPCI/RCIC incident in January and the Core Spray differential pressure checks in February point this out.
I feel a min-0STI would provide the NRC with the necessary insight as to whether the licensee's initiativas in operator performance are working.

Richard Knop MAR 161988 Excluding the OSTI findings I feel that the above information supports the inspections discussed in the draft proposal.
The OSTI findings only reinforce the need for the inspection.
Sincerely, Y
