Subject: Inspection Report 86-08 Notice of Violation
Wide Range Noble Gas Stack Monitor
Dear Mr. Gagliardo:
Reference 2 identified that OPPD had not completed calibration of the Wide
,
i
Range Noble Gas (WRNG) stack monitor RM-063 L, M and H and created an
unresolved item regarding failure to submit special reports in accordance with
Technical Specifications 2.21 to extend the time that the monitors would be out
of service.
Reference 3 confirmed that the special report had not been
submitted and committed to calibration of RM-063 L, M and H.
Reference 4 was a
Notification of Violation regarding the failure to submit the required special
report and Reference 5 was OPPD's response to this violation.
l
Reference 6 informed the Commission that RM-063 L and RM-063 M had been
successfully calibrated and placed in service in May, 1986, but that RM-063 H
had failed the acceptance criteria and remained out of service.
RM-063H was
calibrated again on October 1, 1986 using a new Xenon 133 Standard Calibration
Gas, and at that time RM-063H successfully passed the acceptance criteria.
This letter is to inform the you that RM-063 L, M and H (Wide Range Noble Gas
stack monitors) are now calibrated and in service.
From August 1984 until
October 1,1986, the preplanned alternate means of monitoring stack radioactive
releases were used.
The alternate methods are not in use now that sufficient
l
channels are in service.
