SUBJECT:

NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-327/99-03 AND

Dear Mr. Scalice:

This refers to the inspection conducted on March 28,1999 inrough May 31,1999, at the

- Sequoyah Nuclear Plant facility. The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection.

During the inspection period, your conduct of activities at the Sequoyah facility was generally

characterized by good operations, maintenance.and plant support. Engineering support was

considered to be acceptable. However a maintenance cleanliness issue involving the Unit 2

turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump was identified as was an issue involving damaged ice

condenser baskets. In addition, the following engineering issues were identified: failure to

implement maintenance rule requirements for electrical systems concerning breaker failures;

'. failure to perform an environmental assessment involving the auxiliary feedwater system pumps

and performing auxiliary feedwater system pump lube on temperature design verification test

using an oil temperature indicator that had not been calibrated.

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has determined that five violations of NRC

{

requirements occurred. These violations are being treated as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs),

l

consistent with Appendix C of the Enforcement Policy. These NCVs are described in the

subject inspection report. If you contest the violations or the severity level of these NCVs, you

[l

.

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 11, and the

,

Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington,
