SUBJECT:
NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-213/99-02
Dear Mr. Mellor:
On July 19,1999, the NRC completed an inspection at the Haddam Neck Plant. The enclosed
report presents the results of that inspection.
During the three-month period covered by this inspection, your conduct of activities at the
Haddam Neck facility was characterized by the continuation of radiological work and completion
of several tasks in preparation for decontamination and dismantlement activities. Your conduct
of activities associated with control of radiological work at Haddam Neck was generally
characterized as careful and thorough.
Effective programs were observed for corrective actions, self-assessment, and auditing of
decommissioning activities. Identification of unresolved safety questions was generally
adequate and revisions to technical specifications were appropriate. However, an error in a
control room dose calculation was submitted as part of an update to the Updated Final Safety
Analysis Report in 1997. The error was self-identified during a review of the calculation in
support of the new control room modifications. The submittal of inaccurate information to the
NRC is a concem, which we are continuing to evaluate.
We determined that your surveillance program for systems, structures, and components
important to safe storage of spent fuel is effective. Your transition plan to turn systems over to
the decommissioning contractor is very good.
Effective radioactive effluent and radiation protection controls with respect to the Bus-10
removal project were established dnd implemented. An effective quality assurance program for
the radioactive effluent control program was noted. The completion of the corrective actions for
Spent Fuel Building ventilation issues was adequate.
