P. O. Box 800
2244 Walnut Grove Avenue'
Rosemead, California 92770
Attention:
Mr. Kenneth P.-Baskin, Vice President.
Nuclear Engineering Safety and Licensing
'
Gentlemen:
,
This refers to the emergency operating procedures (EOP) inspection conducted at
San Onofre Units 2 and 3 by a special E0P inspection team during the period
June 1 through 14, 1988, and to the discussion of the inspection findings held
6
by the inspectors with Mr. C. B. McCarthy and other members of the Southern
California Edison staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
Areas examined during this inspection are described in the enclosed inspection
-
report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of examinations of
emergency operating procedures, related procedures and records, interviews with
personnel, and observations by the inspectors.
The inspection findings are
,
documented in the enclosed inspection report.
'
Within the scope of the inspection, no violations or deviations were
identified.
Although deficiencies were identified, the Emergency Operating
Procedures were found to be adequate for continued operation of the facility.
We wish to call your attention to the apparent reluctance by the licensed
reactor operators to utilize the Functional Recovery Instruction procedure
during a simulator exercise.
It appeared that the identified deficiencies,
contained in the Functional Recovery Instruction procedure, resulted in the
operators losing confidence in the procedure's ability to quickly mitigate
plant conditions during a plant emergency.
We wish to emphasize your staff's
'
commitment to eliminate the deficiencies in the procedures and the
corresponding weaknesses in the training program, which were identified as the
,
root causes of the operator's perception of the inadequate capability of the
1
Functional Recovery Procedure.
In accorJance with 10 CFR 2.790(a), a copy of this letter, the enclosure, and
your response will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
