Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station
RFD #1 Rocky Hill Road
Plymouth, Massachusetts 02360
Gentlemen:
Subject: Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP)
Board Report No. 50-293/87-99
Enclosed for your review, prior to our scheduled meeting of August 25, 1988,
is the SALP Goard Report for Pilgrim Nuc? ear Power Station covering the period
February 1, 1987 through May 15, 1988.
In accordance with NRC policy, I have reviewed the SALP Board Report and
concur with the assigned ratings. Highlights of the report are set forth below:
1.
Category 1 performance rating was assigned to Engineering and
Technical Support which continued strong performance through the
assessment period.
2.
Category 2 ratings were given in the functional areas of Surveillance,
Fire Protection, Security and Safeguards and Assurance of Quality
dCknowledging Boston Edison Company's extensive efforts to upgrade
performance from the previously assigned Category 3 ratings.
3.
Category
3
Improving
rating was
assigned to the Radiological
Controls functional area.
The assignment of the Category 3 improving rating indicates that improvement in
the organization, programs and performance were noted in the Radiological
Controls functional area.
However,
in our view, the results of
these
initiatives were coming to fruition at the close of the assessment period, and
had not yet demonstrated the ability to sustain improved performance.
Additionally, on July 8,
1988, Region I advised you that Pilgrim remains
categorized by NRC Senior Management as. a plant that requires continued close
monitoring and demonstration of programs which establish and
implement
performance improvements.
This was done in conjuction with a letter from the
NRC's Executive Director for Operations to your Chief Executive Officer.
We
recognize the progress demonstrated to date as a result of your extensive
efforts, however, continued vigilance on your part is necessary to achieve and
sustain overall results.
NRC will also continue its increased attention to
your facility.
In this regard, we will conduct an assessment team inspection
l
to further measure the effectiveness and readiness of your management controls,
l
programs and personnel to support safe restart of the facility.
Further, I
plan to shorten the current SALP assessment period to permit an additional
!
opportunity to measure the results of your programs,
