Allegation

,

a.

Allegation (RII-87-A-0035)

Notification of Unit 2 construction workers of Unit 1 emergency.

Concern

!

A concerned individual stated that there was no equipment (e.g., loud

l

speakers) to alert Unit 2 construction workers in the event of a

nuclear or non-nuclear Unit 1 emergency.

The only method available

to warn the workers was by informally passing the information from

person to person.

Discussion

l

An onsite Region Il inspector informed licensee representatives of

!

the subject concern on March 6,1987, and promptly initiated a

,

detailed review and investigation of the alleged problem.

'

Investigation disclosed that a site warning system, consisting of a

siren / speaker, was in place and operational.

It was also verified

that mandatory training and orientation of Unit 2 construction

workers regarding site emergency conditions, notification signals,

and required responsive actions was completed and documented prior to

site receipt of nuclear fuels.

The subject training is assigned as a

condition of employment.

Investigation also disclosed that the

notification signal was readily audible throughout the site; however,

the signal was inaudible in certain areas of the Unit 2 power block,

namely:

containment, Auxiliary Building, turbine deck, and other

high ambient noise and/or isolated zones.

Verbal discussions were

held with cognizant management who concurred with the findings, and

comitted to promptly determine and implement the most feasible

corrective actions.

'

action involving installation of alert sirens in the referenced

designated areas of Unit 2 power block was in progress and scheduled

for completion and operational testing prior to March 12, 1987.
