SUBJECT:
NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-344/99-04; 72-017/99-02
Dear Mr. Quennoz:
On April 8,1999, the NRC completed a special team inspection at the Trojan facility. The
primary purpose of the team inspection was to ascertain whether your facility was ready for
transferring spent fuel from the spent fuel pool to the newly constructed independent Spent
Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The team also assessed whether you could return the fuel to
the spent fuel pool or to a fuel basket overpack assembly if a problem were to occur during fuel
handling operations. As part of the inspection, the team observed your performance of a dry
run preoperational test during March 28 - April 8,1999. During the dry run test, you
demonstrated that you had the equipment, personnel, and procedures to safely handle spent
fuel. The enclosed report presents the scope and results of this inspection.
In summary, the team concluded that you appear ready to transfer fuel from the spent fuel pool
to the ISFSI for temporary storage, pending transfer to a permanent storage facility. You have
procured and tested the equipment needed to safely handle the fuel, you have trained an
adequate number of individuals to start fuel-handling operations, and you have verified and
validated the fuel handlin'g procedures. Also, the procedures provided contingency actions if a
problem were to occur.
Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has determined that one Severity Level IV
violation of NRC requirements occurred. The violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation
(NCV), consistent with Appendix C of the Enforcement Policy. The NCV is described in the
subject report if you contest the violation or the severity level of the NCV, you should provide a
response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to
the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC
20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region IV,611 Ryan Plaza Drive, Suite
400, Arlington, Texas 76011; and the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its
enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR).
