SUBJECT:
BRAIDWOOD STATION DESIGN INSPEOTION Deer Mr. Kingsley:
The purpose of this letter is to inform Commonwealth Edison Company (Comed) of the NRC's plans to conduct a design inspection of Braidwood Station. The 4-week on-site portion of the inspection is scheduled for March 16-20,1998, March 30 through April 10,1998, and April 20-24, t
1998. Comed has indicated that there are no major conflicts with onsite activities during this period. The team leader and two team members of the inspection team visited the site on February 18 and 19,1998, to collect docurr.antation necessary for irwoffee review and on-site inspection. The in-office review will commence on March 2,1998 '
Recent NRC inspections at nuclear power reactor facilities have identified numerous findings where the actual plant configuration or gerations were inconsistent with the design basis, licensing basis, or the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). Therefore, the NRC has decided to perform design inspections at nuclear power reactor facilities utilizing Inspection Procedure (IP) 93801, " Safety System Functional Inspection." The auxiliary feedwater (AFW) system and the safety injection (SI) system have been selected for inspection and documents pertaining to these systems were obtained duing the February 18-19,1998, visit.
Mr. S.K. Malur, Team Leader, NRC, will interface with Comed regarding all matters related to this inspection. The inspection will be peiformed by a team of five engineers from Stone &
Webster Engineering Corporation (SWEC) who have been contracted by the NRC for this -
purpose. Mr. Robert Bradbury of SWEC, who is part of the five person team, will be the lead contractor engineer.
