Docket Nos. 50-206, 50-361, 50-362
Southern California Edison Coapany
P. O. Box 800
2244 Walnut Grove Avenue
Rosemead, California 92770
Attention:
Mr. Henr>eth P. Baskin, Vice President
Nuclaar Engineering Safety and Licensing
Gentlemen:
This refers to the routinc inspection conducted by Messrs. F. R. Huey, J. E.
Tatum, and A. L. Hon of this rnice during the period of May 24 through
July 4,1987 of activitirc aWhorized by NRC License Nos. OPR-13, NPF-10 and
NPF-15 and to t h discussion Of our findings held by the inspectors with Mr.
H. B. Ray and other members of the Southern California Edison (SCE) staff at
the conclusion of the inspection.
'.
Areas examined during this int,pection are described in the enclosed inspection
[
report.
Within these areas, the irspection consisted uf selective
,
examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews with
"
,
personnel, and observat ons by the inspectors.
As previously discussed in inspection report 50-206/87-03 and in paragraph 9.d
of the enclosed report", it appears that certain of your activities were not
conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set ferth in the Notice
of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.
-
During the exit interview at which the proposed Notice of Violation involving
station housekeeping was discussed, SCE management identified an intent to
revise existing station housekeeping procedures to delete specific
quantitative stadards associated with housekeeping requirements.
These
"
changes would apoarently p4co increased reliance on first iine supervision,
which our inspection staff does not consider to have been fully effective in
maintaining hous m oping standards under t.he more specific exirting program.
The SCE staff stated that this intended action was in response to what SCE
considers to be unwarranted NRC enforcement actions related to violation of
station procedures which M5 believes ar.t more restrictive than the
requirements intended by NRC regulations.
However, we believe the
discrepancies cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation indicate weakness and
a need for improved performance in the areas identified.
It is of concern to
the NRC that SCE appears to be placing more emphasis on eliminating the risk
of enf orcement action than on the aggressive implementation of an existing
program which has been satisfactorily implemented in the past. .SCE is
requested to specifically address this conce n in their response to the
e
proposed Notice of Violation.
