ATTN: Mr. S. A. White
Manager of Nuclear Power
6N 38A Lookout Place
1101 Merket Street
Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801
Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-327/86-49 AND 50-328/86-49
This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted by
K. M. Jenison on September 6 - October 5, 1986. The inspection included a review
of activities authorized for your Sequoyah facility. At the conclusion of the
inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff
identified in the enclosed inspection report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. These areas
include a review of licensee action on previous inspection' findings, required
surveillance testing, inadvertent starts of the Emergency Diesel Generators, IE
Information Notices, and License Conditions. Within these areas, the inspection
consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative records,
interviews with personnel, and observation of activities in progress.
Sequoyah has had a repeated history of failed UHI isolation valve response time
surveillances. The cause of the repeated surveillance failures was not adequately
determined by Sequoyah and corrective action was not taken to preclude further
failures. This violation, described in the enclosed Inspection Report, is under
consideration for escalated enforcement action. Accordingly, no Notice of
Violation is being issued at this time, and no response to this letter is required.
However, please be advised that the number and characterization of violations
described in the enclosed Inspection Report may change as a result of further NRC
review. You will be advised by separate correspondence of the results of our
deliberations on this matter.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2,
Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and its enclosure
will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
