'
SUBJECT:' -SAFETY SYSTEMS OUTAGE MODIFICATIONS AND MAINTENANCE TEAM INSPECTIONS-
AT NORTH ANNA NUCLEAR POWER STATION
(INSPECTIONREPORT 50-338/89-200 and 50-339/89-201)
This letter forwards' the report and executive sumary of the installation and
testiphase of the safety systems outage modifications inspection (SSOMI) and:
maintenance team inspection'(MTI) conducted by the NRC's Office of Nuclear
Reactor Regulation during the weeks of May 8 and May 22, 1969. At the
.
-conclusion of the inspection, the inspection team discussed the findings with
you and members of your staff identified in Appendix B of the enclosed inspec-
tion report.~
The purpose of the installation and test phase of the 550MI was (1) to
- determine, through an examination of specific design changt pac?tges and
. engineering. work requests, that installation of the modifications conformed
-
with the design and installation requirements and (2) to verify that the
modified systems and components have been adequately tested to ensure that
they are capable of perforning their intended functions. The MTI was
performed to determine (1) whether plant components have been properly
' maintained so that they are available to perform their intended function
and (2) whether the maintenance process provides for prompt repair of plant
components in relationship to their safety importance.
The team generally found your modification and maintenance programs to be
effectively implemented. The inspection team identified weaknesses related
to performance of vendor surveillance activities, lack of detail in some
procedures. some administrative control problems, an excessive number of
field changes issued against the relatively older modification packages.
ntimely corrective-actions in response to identified deficiencies, an
u
overly narrow scope of manual valve maintenance reviews, an inadequate
' root cause' evaluation progr:m, and incorrect pressurtrer spray valve
position. indication. Hc
,er, the team found that site personnel were
knowledgeable about their work and that supervisors were monitoring field
activities closely.

The current site staffing levels appear to be strained in several areas of the
organization. This situation has delayed the iniplementation of several important
site initiatives. We are concerned that planned programs will suffer if the
available personnel resources are not adjusted to a level commensurate with the
site workload.
Although no formal response to this report is required, some of the findings
identified by the inspection team may be potential enforcement items. Any
enforcement actions will be initiated by Region II under separate
correspondence.
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.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, please contact Mr.
J. E. Konklin (301 492 0953).
Sincerely,
Steven A. Varga, Director
