SUBJECT:

FERMI INSPECTION REPORT 50-341/99011(DRP)

,

~ DearWr. Gipson:

This refers to the inspection conducted on July 24 through September 8,1999, at the Fermi 2

~ Facility. ' The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection.

j --

During this inspection period, operation of the facility was effective. Operators and engineering

staff appropriately responded to several emergent equipment deficiencies. In particular, we

noted that when equipment problems or human performance problems occurred your staff

properly documented the issues in the corrective action program.- In addition, in response to

j

the increased occurrence of problems due to human performance errors, we observed that you

'

took aggressive action, in the form of a work stand-down, to focus plant personnel on good

work practices which should improve personnel performance.

- Based on the results'of this inspection, the NRC has determined that two violations of NRC

requirements occurred. These violations, involving failure to follow procedures while sampling

the standby liquid control tank and the failure to wear dosimetry properly, are being treated as

Noa-Cited Violations (NCVs), consistent with Appendix C of the Enforcement Policy. These

NCVs are described in the subject inspection report. If you contest the violation or severity

level of these NCVs, you shouY provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection

report, with the basis for yo's cenial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document

Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001, with copies to the Regional Administrator,

Region lil, and the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory

Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001,
