Gentlemen:
Subject: Combined Inspection Report Numbers 50-245/86-06 and 50-336/86-06
A routine safety inspection of your solid radioactive waste preparation,
packaging and shipping program was conducted by Mr. P. Clemons of this office
on March 24-27, 1986, of activities authorized by NRC License Nos. DPR-21 and
I
DPR-65. Our findings were discussed with Mr. W. Romberg and other members of
your staff at the conclusion of the inspection on March 27, 1986.
The areas examined during this inspection are described in the NRC Region I
.
l
Inspection Report which is enclosed with this letter. Within these areas, the
l
inspection consisted of selective examination of procedures and representative
records, interviews with personnel and observations by the inspector.
The
,
l
inspection indicated an apparent loss of management control of certain aspects
of the radwaste program. Several items were identified as not being conducted
i
in full compliance with NRC requirements.
Details are provided in the
enclosed inspection report.
i
We are concerned about the number of problems associated with transportation
!
requirements at Millstone Point Nuclear Power Station identified in the
i
Inspection Report.
In addition, similar problems were identified during an
inspection at the Haddam Neck Nuclear Power Plant as described in NRC Region I
,
j
Inspection Report No. 50-213/86-04.
Further, several violations were brought
to your attention in Notices of Violation dated June 18, 1985, for the
Millstone Point Nuclear Power Station and in June 24, 1985, for the Haddam
Neck Nuclear Power Plant.
These violations and weaknesses in your program
'
'
were also identified in NRC Region
!
Inspection Reports 50-245/85-11,
50-336/85-14, and 50-213/85-09. Accordingly, we have scheduled an enforcement
conference with you in the Region I office on June 18, 1986, at 1:15 p.m., t)
discuss the recent identified problems, previously identified violations and
j
program weaknesses, associated causes, reasons for re-occurrence, and your
