Docket No. 50-344

Portland General Electric Company

121 S.W. Salmon Street

Portland, Oregon 97204

Attention: Mr. James E. Cross

Vice President, Nuclear

Gentlemen:

SUBJECT: NRC IN-0FFICE INSPECTION

This letter refers to the in-office inspection conducted by Ms. G. M. Good of

this office during the period May 6-16, 1991, of activities authorized by NRC

License No. NPF-1, and to the discussion of our findings held by Ms. Good with

Mr. T Walt and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the

inspection.

This in-office inspection was conducted to review the proposed Revision 6 to

Trojan Emergency Procedure (EP)-001, " Emergency Classification," submitted to

us by letter dated March 21, 1991, in accordance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix E,

Paragraph IV.B. This submittal was considered to be a request for prior

approval under 10 CFR 50.54(q). The results of this inspection are described

in the enclosed inspection report.

No deviations or violations of NRC requirements were identified within the

scope of this inspection. We did, however, identify several proposed changes

that were not consistent (in a non-conservative direction) with industry

standards (NUREG-0654, Revision 1, " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of

Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear

Power Plants") and would constitute an unacceptable decrease in the

effectiveness of the Trojan Radiological Emergency Response Plan if

implemented. As a result, we were unable to approve the proposed Revision 6

to EP-001. We also identified several existing emergency action levels that

were not consistent with NUREG-0654. The results indicate a need for

increased management attention in this area to ensure that a conservative

approach to event classification is maintained.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790(a), a copy of this letter and the enclosure ,

will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
