SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-498/98-13; 50-499/98-13
Dear Mr. Cottle:
From August 4-7,1998, an announced, emergency preparedness inspection was conducted
at your South Texas Project Electric Generating Station, Units 1 and 2 reactor facilities.
The enclosed report presents the scope and results of that inspection.
The inspection included implementation of your emergency plan and procedures during your
biennial emergency preparedness exercise. Overall, performance during the biennial
exercise was good; however, one exercise weakness was identified. The exercise
weakness involved the failure to recognize that dose projections indicated the need to make
protective action recommendations beyond 10 miles.
i
Exercise weaknesses, according to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.IV.F.2.g, are inspection
findings that need to be corrected by the licensee. Therefore, you are requested to provide
this office with a description of your corrective measures and '>eur schedule for completing
these actions within 30 days after receipt of this letter.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and
its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
l
Should you have any questions conceming this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss
them with you.
Sincerely,
Dwight D. Chamberlain for
