SUBJECT:-
NRC RADIATION PROTECTION INSPECTION REPORT 50-461/98013(DRS)
Dear Mr. MacFarland:
.
I
- On June 25,1998, the NRC completed an inspection at your Clinton Nuclear Power Station.
The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection.
<
l.
This inspection was an examination of activities conducted under your license as they relate to
radiation safety and to compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the
conditions of your license. The inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures
L
and representative records, observations of work in progress and interviews with personnel.
- Specifically, the inspection focused on air sampling activities in support of the containment and
l _-
drywell coatings work and the maintenance of whole body contamination monitoring and
i
counting Instrumentation.
Air sampling activities for the coatings work were properly performed and representative of work -
activities. However, we noted that your procedures did not instruct personnel when to perform
L
air sampling and did not contain a formal process for tracking the assignment of lapel air
samplers and associated sample analysis results. Your staff acknowledged these observations
!
and was planning corrective actions. Oversight and maintenance of the whole body
contamination monitoring and counting instrumentation was good, and weaknesses from a
previous violation in this area were properly addressed.
No violations of NRC requirements were identified during this inspection,
j
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 i f the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its
L
enclosures, and your response to this letter w;ll be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
