Subject:
Inspection Report No. 50-213/86-29
!
.
During the period from November 14 to 21, 1986, a Region I team of nine in-
,
spectors conducted an integrated performance assessment inspection at the
!
Haddam Neck Nuclect Power Plant. The objective of this inspection was to
obtain additional insight into your overall facility / organizational performance
1
I
in order to improve our understanding of declining trends in performance during
,
l
the past several years as indicated by our Systematic Assessment of Licensee
'
Performance (SALP) evaluations of your facility. The inspection was intended
to provide a fresh perspective independent of previous NRC inspections and
+
evaluations. At the conclusion of the inspection Messrs. H. Kister and
{
R. Conte of my staff summarized the inspection findings with you and other
j
members of your staff.
l
Overall, we did not identify any fundamental weaknesses in the facility opera-
I
tion and generally confirmed our past assessment of your performance in the
'
i
most recent SALP report. As we previously concluded, you have a strong,
!
knowledgeable operations staff with a good safety perspective. We noted good
!
practices in operator training, problem identification methods, and site
security. However, some areas require your further attention to bring about
I
needed performance improvements.
These include communications between the
l
plant staff and engineering support groups, temporary equipment storage, and
sensitivity toward out-of-service time for critical equipment.
J
l
Further, recent changes in management assignments along with enhanced resources
!
applied to new training programs, increased activity in the area of plant
!
modifications, and implementation of new technical specifications, will require
the special attention of your managers to complete these necessary improvements
and at the same time maintain a high assurance of nuclear and radiological
safety.
