Docket No. 50-483
EA 87-217
Union Electric Company
ATTN: Mr. Donald F. Schnell
Vice President - Nuclear
Post Office Box 149 - Mail Code 400
St. Louis, MO 63166
Gentlemen:
This refers to our letter dated November 4, 1987, which forwarded the results
of a special safety inspection conducted to review the circumstances
surrounding a mispositioned flow balancing damper in one train of the Control
Room Emergency Ventilation System (NRC Inspection Report No. 50-483/87033(DRP)).
That letter stated that you would be notified of our decision regarding
enforcement actions.
Our evaluation of the matter is complete, and the NRC staff has determined
that certain of your activities appear to be in violation of NRC requirements,
as described in the enclosed Notice. The inspection identified (1) a failure
to perform an adequate preoperational . test to verify the correct flow through
the damper and (2) a failure to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality
in that the damper position was not promptly corrected.
We discussed this issue at an enforcement conference held in the Region III
office on November 10, 1987, between Mr. G. L. Randolph and members of your
staff and Mr. C. J. Paperiello and members of the Region III and NRR staffs.
Although escalated enforcement had been considered for these violations, we
'
have concluded that the appropriate enforcement action for this matter is the
issuance of two Severity Level IV violations. A written response is required.
During the enforcement conference, you stated that measures were being taken
to determine whether other adverse conditions had been overlooked during
preoperational testing.
In your response to these violations, please describe
the corrective actions you plan to take or have taken in this regard.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of
this letter, the enclosures, and your response to this letter will be placed
in the NRC Public Document Room.
