Docket: 50-298/88-04
Nebraska Public Power District
ATTN: George A. Trevors
Division Manager - Nuclear Support
P.O. Box 499
Columbus, NE 68601
Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. L. E. Ellershaw and
R. G. Taylor of this office during the period February 8-12 and February 29
through March 4,1988, of activities authorized by NRC Operating License DPR-46
for the Cooper Nuclear Station, and to the discussion of our findings with
Mr. G. R. Horn and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the
inspection.
Areas examined during the inspection included review of your quality assurance
program including implementation with respect to records management, document
control, receiving inspection of materials and components, and implementation
of 10 CFR Part 21 requirements. Within these areas, the inspection consisted
of selective examination of procedures and representative records, interviews
with personnel, and observations by the NRC inspectors. The inspection
findings are documented in the enclosed inspection report.
During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in
violation of NRC requirements.
Consequently, you are required to respond to
these violations, in writing, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.201 of the NRL's "Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of
Federal Regulations.
Your response should be based on the specifics contained
in the Notice of Violation enclosed with this letter.
In addition, the NRC inspectors identified your lack of a dedication procedure
for qualifying nonessential items for continued use in essential applications.
As a result, a potential exists for the installation of materials in systems
at Cooper Nuclear Station that may have an adverse impact on system operability
requirements. During the inspection, your staff indicated that a dedication
procedure did not exist but the need for one had been identified and the
necessary actions to develop one had been taken.
In addition to dedication
procedure development, your attention to assure that the lack of a dedication
procedure has not impacted presently installed nonessential and
essential-commercial grade items in essential applications is necessary.
Although
for the purposes of this inspection the dedication process is considered to be ,
an unresolved item, we will review this matter in a subsequent inspection prior
to the restart of the Cooper Nuclear Station.
