Gentlemen:
This refers to the special safety inspection conducted by Messrs. A. Fresco,
K. Parkinson, and J. M. Ulie of this office on March 21-25, and May 3,1988,
of activities at the Big Rock Point Nuclear Plant authorized by NRC Operating
License No. DPR-06 ard to the discussion of our findings with Mr. T. Elward
and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection. The
purpose of the inspection was to review 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, activities.
The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during
the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective
examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and
interviews with personnel.
No violations of NRC requirements were identified during the course of this
inspection.
However, as was discussed with your staff during the inspection,
the acceptability of certain engineering analyses to satisfy Appendix R
criteria remains undetermined pending further review by NRR. We request that
the three unresolved items discussed in Paragraphs 2.f and 6 of the enclosed
report be specifically addressed.
In addition, as is discussed in Paragraphs 2.f, 7.d and 7.e of the enclosed
report, those areas within Containment intended to meet Section III.G.2 of the
Rule should be identified to NRR if the manner in which the plant meets the
Rule includes an engineering analyses and no exemption has been granted for
these specific areas lacking a fire detection system.
In general, this inspection determined that since our previous Appendix R
inspection, improvement has been made in the documentation and analyses
available to support the Big Rock Point plant compliance with Sections III.G
and L of Appendix R.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Connission's regulations, a copy of
t
'this letter and the enclosed inspection report will be placed in the NRC Public
'
Document Room.
