Docket No. 50-295
Docket No. 50-304
Commonwealth Edison Company
ATTN: Mr. Cordell Reed
Senior Vice President
Post Office Box 767
Chicago, IL 60690
.
Gentlemen:
Enclosed for your review, prior to our scheduled meeting of September 7,1933,
is the SAlp 7 Board Report for the Zion Station covering the period December 1,
1986 through May 31, 1988.
In accordance with NRC policy, I have reviewed the SALP ? Board Report and
concur with the assigned ratings. Highlights of the report are set forth
below:
1.
Zion Station earned four Category 1 ratings, seven Category 2 ratings,
and one Category 3 rating. Category 1 ratings were given in the
functional areas of Emergency Preparedness, Security, Outages, and
Licensing. Performance in the Emergency Preparedness area has improved
s
from the Category 2 rating of the previous assessment period.
2.
A Category 3 rating was given in the ; ea of Engineering / Technical
Support. The rating reflects the large number of violations and
!
events, including two Severity Level III violations, attributable
!
to this functional area, insufficient management atterition to several
technical issues, and untimely resolutions of identified problems.
-
3.
Although the Category 2 ratings in the areas of Operations, Radiological
Controls, and Maintenance are unchanged from the ratings of the SALP 6
assessrrent period, the Board notes that performance has improve 6 in these
areas.
Improvement was particularly evident in T.he reduction in reactor
trips and increase in unit availability during the SALP 7 period.
4.
The rating in the Training and Qualifications area declined from
Category 1 to Category 2.
The decline in rating reflects the . lack of
knowledge of technical information and regulatory requirements involved
"
in many LERs and violations, and weaknesses in technical staff +, raining.
While you will have sufficient opportunity to present yLar comments at the
meeting on September 7,1988, we also solicit written comments within 30 days
after the meeting to enable us to thoroughly evaluate your comments and to
provide you with our conclusions relative to them. Additicnally, you are
requested to specifically address in writing corrective actions planned to
improve your performance in the Engineering / Technical Support area. This
response should include specific actions and dates by which these actions
will be completed.
