Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. R. C. Stewart, L. E. Ellershaw,
and W. B. Jones of this office during the period May 1-5 and 15-19,1989, of
activities authorized by NRC Operating License NPF-47 for River Bend Station,
and to.the discussion of our findings with you and other members cf your staff
at the conclusion of.the inspection.
Areas examined during the inspection included the River Bend inservice testing
program for pumps and valves, witnessing of welding activities involved with
repairs to the service water system, and review of your activities resulting
from your self-initiated safety system functional inspection (SSFI). Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the
NRC inspectors. The inspection findings are documented in the enclosed
inspection report.
During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements.
In our view, the issues underlying
these apparent violations are significant in that they are related to the
reliability and operability of safety-related components and systems. An
enforcement conference to discuss these issues will be held at a later date in
our Region IV offices in Arlington, Texas. During this conference, you will be
given an opportunity to discuss Gulf States Utilities' view of these apparent
,
violations and NRC concerns and what actions you deem necessary to address
these apparent violations, including corrective actions you have taken or plan
to take.
'
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to
discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
Driginal Signed By,
J. L. Milho
James L. Elhoan, Director
Division of Reactor Projects
