SUBJECT: NRC ROUTINE INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-361/99-12; 50-362/99-12
Dear Mr. Ray:
This refers to the inspection conducted from August 8 ;hrough September 18,1999, at the
San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3, facility. The enclosed report presents
the results of this inspection.
1
During the 6-week period covered by this inspection, your conduct of activities at the
San Onofre facility was generally characterized by safety-conscious operation, sound
engineering and maintenance practices, and careful radiological work controls.
Based on the results of this inspection, one apparent violation was identified and is being
considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the " General Statement of
Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions"(Enforcement Policy), NUREG-1600 l
(EA 99-242). The apparent violation involves the inoperability of an emergency diesel
generator in excess of its allowed outage time. You reported this information to the NRC in ;
Licensee Event Report 362/1999-006-00. This issue is discussed in Section 08.1 of the l
enclosed inspection report (EA 99-242). The circumstances surrounding this apparent
violation, the significance of the issues, and the need for lasting and effective corrective action
were discussed with members of your staff at the inspection exit meeting on September 21,
1999 ' As a result, it may not be necessary to conduct a predecisional enforcement conference
in order to enable the NRC to make an enforcement decision.
I
In addition, since you identified the violation, and based on our understanding of your corrective
action, a civil penalty may not be warranted in accordance with Section VI.B.2 of the f
. Enforcement Policy. The final decision will be based on your confirming on the license docket /
that the corrective actions previously described to the staff have been or are being taken.
Before the NRC makes its final enforcement decision, we are providing you an opportunity to
either (1) respond to the apparent violation addressed in this inspection report within 30 days of
the date of this letter or (2) request a predecisional enforcement conference. If a conference is
held, it will be open to public observation. The NRC will also issue a press release to announce
the conference. Please contact Ms. Linda Smith at (817) 86043137 within 7 days of the date of
this letter to notify the NRC of your intended response.
