Docket No. 50-374
Commonwealth Edison Company
ATTN: Mr. Cordell Reed
Vice President
Post Office Box 767
Chicago,-IL 60690
Gentlemen:
Enclosed for your review, prior to our scheduled meeting of March 13, 1987, is
the SALP 6 Board Report for the LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2, covering
the period October 1, 1985 through November 15, 1986.
Overall, your performance was found acceptable and directed toward safe facility
operation. ' The programs developed by your staff in response to the 10 CFR 50.54(f)
letter issued November 22, 1985, improved regulatory performance during this
assessment period. This was evidenced by the improvement of four functional
areas which received Category 3 ratings in the last SALP and which received
Category 2 ratings during this assessment period.
In accordance with NRC policy, I have reviewed the SALP Board report and accept
the Board's findings.
You should be aware, however, that both the Board and I
had considerable difficulty in deciding the final ratings in the areas of
Operations, Surveillances, and Outages. The general problem encountered was
that while performance in each of these areas had improved, questions existed
as to whether the amount of improvement and the duration of performance at the
improved level was sufficient to support a Category 2 rating. Therefore, you
should interpret these ratings to be a close call between Category 2 and Category
3 and to be more representative of activities at the end of the period. This
fact, along with some specific concerns identified in the Surveillance and
Security areas, point out the need for continued high levels of management
attention to this plant to assure that actions initiated continue to show
positive results. Highlights of the report are set forth below:
1.
The functional areas of Operations, Maintenance, Surveillance, and Quality
Program and Administrative Controls Affecting Quality, which had received
Category 3 ratings in the last SALP, were all rated Category 2 in this SALP.
2.
In the area of Surveillance, while a Category 2 rating was received, problems
continued to occur with inservice testing.
Inadequacies are the same as
those mentioned in the SALP 5 report indicating that corrective actions
have not been sufficient to prevent these. problems from recurring.
3.
The functional area of Security received a Category 2 rating, but a declining
trend in performance was noted at the end of this assessment period.
4.
Fire Protection / Housekeeping declined from a Category 1 during the last
SALP to a Category 2.
