ENCLOSURE

STAFF ASSESSMENT OF LICENSEE REQUEST

After evaluating the information provided, we have determined that the two

violations are properly classified as Severity Level IV violations for the

following reasons:

Violation A: The control room ventilation surveillance procedure did not

contain instructions to ensure the technical specification

requirements were met.

Violation B: The surveillance frequency specified in the technical

specifications was not met. The Plant Hatch Surveillance

Coordinators' records are not considered as appropriate quality

. records for performance of the surveillance procedure on

October 25, 1982, and December 6, 1985. Likewise, the undated

affidavit prepared and signed with no supporting data, as the

result of the inspectors' findings, to document the December 6,

1985, surveillance does not constitute a quality record.

We do not agree that you have shown that the violations had no

potential safety consequences. The technical specification

requirements ensure that the system functions as analyzed to

meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criteria 19.

The potential safety consequences associated with a failure to

meet 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criteria 19 requirements constitute

a violation which is of more than minor safety or environmental

significance.
