3.

Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (92701, 92702)

(Closed) Unresolved Item 84-14-02, Adequacy of sra45er walkdown inspection.

LER 84-018, Steam _ generator system snubber and %dpa rt failures, identified

multiple snubber failures attributed to syrtEr. crr s ients.

The unresolved

item was a result of the snubber failures tir atif a in the above LER. The

inspector questioned the adequacy of the walkdown inspection following the

snubber failures.

The licensee has developed a Design Guide Procedure

ME-07, Evaldation of Technical Specification Snubbers, that provides a

,

detailed description of how an engineering evaluation shall be performed to

satisfy Technical Spcification (TS) Section 4.7.7.g.

The inspector

selected two NCN's 2082 and 2094, related to snubber failures, for review.

The NCN's were written prior to issuance of ME-07 but were dispositioned

utilizing the methods in the procedure while the procedure was in draft.

The inspector verified that the evt.luation was performed to satisfy the TS

requirements.

LER 84-018 was closed in inspection report 85-02. This item

is closed.

(Closed)

Bulletin 85-01, Steam binding of Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) pump.

The inspector reviewed the licensee's response to items in the bulletin and

verified that the procedures required to monitor fluid conditions within the

AFW system were accomplished by the revision of the station logs on June 9,

1985.

This revision requires recording each emergency pump discharge

temperature once per eight hour shift.

Item 2 of the bulletin was satisfied

on January 2, 1986, when the Emergency Feedwater System Operating Procedure

(SOP-211) was revised to address recognition and corrective action for steam

binding of Emergency Feedwater pumps.

The inspector verified that a lesson

plan was incorporated into the training program to address the Auxiliary

Feedwater pumps disabled by back leakage. This item is closed.

(Closed)

Bulletin 85-02, Undervoltage trip attachments of Westinghouse

DB-50 type reactor trip breakers.

This bulletin is not applicable to the

V. C. Summer Station, since DS-416 type reactor trip breakers are installed,

instead of 08-50 type breakers, as addressed in this bulletin. This item is

closed.

(Closed)

Inspector Followup Item 83-15-07, Qualified reviewer problem with

technical specifications. This item addressed an inspector concern with the

qualification requirements of procedure reviewers as specified in technical

specifications.

The applicable section of ANSI Standard 18.1 (1971),

referenced in technical specifications, did not include qualifications for

procedure reviewers in the area of operations, managers and supervisors.

Amendment 57 to technical specifications, item 6.5.3.1 and item 6.5.3.1(e),

issued on December 22, 1986, corrects this discrepancy.

This item is

closed.

(Closed)

Violation 86-15-01, Failure to perform a 50.59 review prior to

implementing changes to plant operations.

The licensee provided a written

response to this violation in a letter to Region II, dated October 23, 1986.

The inspector reviewed the licensee's response and the corrective actions

implemented to prevent recurrence of this item.

The revisions to Station

Administrative Procedure (SAP-204), appear to provide adequate guidance to

plant personnel. This item is closed.

The inspectors also verified that

the required administrative approvals

were obtained prior to initiating

the test, that the testing was accomplished by qualified personnel, that

required test instrumentation was properly calibrated, that data met TS

requirements, that test discrepancies were rectified, and that the systems

were properly returned to service.
