Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. P. H. Harrell and T. Reis of
[
this office during the period September 1-30, 1988, of activities authorized by
!
NRC Operating License DPR-40 for the Fort Calhoun Station, and to the discussion
of our findings with you anj other members of your staff at the conclusion of
,
the inspection.
i
Areas examined during the inspection included review of previously identified
items, operational safety verificat!% plant tours, monthly maintenance
i
observations, monthly surveillance observations, security observations,
i
radiological protection observations, in-office review of periodic and special
reports, review of Generic Letter 88-03, review of NRC Bulletin 88-05, review of
information on containment temperatures, and preparation for refueling. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of procedures and
i
representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the NRC
inspectors. The inspection findings are documented in the enclosed inspection
report.
During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in
violation of NRC requiretrents.
Consec,uently, you are required to respond to
these violations, in writing, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.201
of the NRC's "R91es of Practice," Part 2. Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations.
Your response should be based on the specifics contained in the Notice of
Violation enclosed with this ittter.
We note that two of these violations involve similer violations identified in
previous NRC inspection reports.
In this inspection period, a fire door that
would not latch due to modifications performed during security door alterations
was identified lV the NRC inspectors. A report to the NRC was not issued
as required by ti.e Technical Specifications, even though similar problems in
the trea of reporting nonfunctional fire barriers had been experienced at the
Fort Calhoun Station in July 1986 (Violation 285/8621-02).
In addition, an
hourly fire watch patrol for all nonfunctional fire barriers was not performed
as required by the Technical Specifications. A similar problem of this nature
had also been experienced at the Fort Calhoun Station in February 1986
(Violation 285/8603-01).
Thus, it apt. ears that adequate corrective actions in
response to the previous violations were not implemented and that more
attention is required to ensure Technical Specification requirements in this
