SUBJECT:

NRC RADIATION PROTECTION AND CHEMISTRY INSPECTION REPORTS

,

50-254/99002(DRS); 50-265/99002(DRS)

. Dear Mr. Kingsley:

On January 29,1999, the NRC completed an inspection of the radiation protection and '

-

chemistry programs at your Quad Cities Nuclear Station. The results of this inspection were

discussed on that date with Mr. Dimmette and other members of your staff. The enclosed

report presents the results of this inspection.

<

i

The inspection was an examination of activities conducted under your license as they relate to

radiation safety, to compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations, and with the

'

conditions of your license. The inspection consisted of a review of the water chemistry control

program, instrument quality control and inter-laboratory comparison program, radiological

environmental monitoring program, and material condition of process radioactive waste

systems. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective examination of

procedures and representative records, observations of activities and equipment material

condition, and interviews with personnel.

,

I

Based on this inspection, no violations of NRC requirements were identified. The water

chemistry, instrument quality control and inter-laboratory comparison programs were well

implemented resulting in effective monitoring and control of plant water chemistry. Radioactive

4

j

waste equipment material condition was improved due to management's increased awareness

/[

of system problems and the potentialimpact on plant operations. The radiological

<

/

environmental monitoring program was effectively implemented, and indicated that there was

I

no discemable environmental effects from plant operations.
