Docket No. 50-346
Toledo Edison Company
ATTN: Mr. Donald Shelton
Vice President
Nuclear
Edison Plaza
'300 Madison Avenue
Toledo, OH 43652
Gentlemen:
This refers to the special safety inspection of activities related to Allegation
RIII-88-A-0057, conducted by Messrs. J. F. Schapker, J. M. Ulfe, and
J. R. Kniceley of this office on September 12-16, and October 3-5, 1988, of
activities at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station authorized by NRC Operating
License No. NPF-3 and to the~ discussion of our findings with Mr. L. Ramsett at
the conclusion of the inspection. This allegation involved the improper
installation of fire dampers and stainless steel duct work in the containment,
violations of security barriers, and fire watch patrol activities.
The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during
the inspection concerning allegations of Quality and Safeguards violations.
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, the licensee's Ombudsman Program was not successful in
resolv.ing the concerns of an individual who had presented the same concerns to
the licensee. This weakness in the licensee's Ombudsman Program could have
contributed to the individual contacting the NRC concerning these issues.
1he NRC inspectors determined that certain allegations of improper work
practices involved nonsafety-related duct work in the Boric Acid Room. Due to
the inaccessibility of the ducts in this room, the NRC inspector was not able
to perform a thorough inspection to verify the validity of the allegation.
This concern was made to the licensee through the Ombudsman Program, but was
not adequately investigated to detennine the validity of the concern.
Although the duct work in the Boric Acid Room is nonsafety-related the
licensee should review the accuracy of the concern and if substantiated,
verify that like activities did not occur on safety-related ducts during work
performed by this contractor. Upon completion of this review, the licensee
- should advise this office of the results.
