Gentlemen:

This refers to a special onsite investigation review conducted by the NRC

Augmented Investigation Team (AIT) on June 17-20, 1987, relating to the

unexpected scram following a loss of the "A" RPS bus and an unexpected closure

of the outboard Main Steam Isolation Valves.

This also refers to discussions

of findings with yourself, Mr. A. Kaplan, and others of your staff during the

course of and at the conclusion of the onsite AIT review on June 20, 1987.

We are concerned about the series of errors that were made that allowed the

plant to be designed, constructed, and tested without identifying that-the

plant was not built in accordance with the Final Safety Analysis Report.

Enforcement action with respect to these errors will be forthcoming in a

subsequent report.

The enclosed copy of the Aagmented Inspection Team report identifies areas

examined during this review.

Within these areas the investigation consisted

of a review of representative records, observations, and interviews with

personnel.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790(a) a copy of this letter and the enclosure

will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

We will gladly discuss any questions you have concerning this inspection.

Sincerely,

6hca % $ Y A J
