Docket No. 50-295
Docket No. 50-304
Commonwealth Edison Company
ATTN: Mr. Cordell Reed
Senior Vice President
Post Office Box 767
Chicago, IL 60690
Gentlemen:
\\
This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by NRC inspectors
Messrs. M. M. Holzmer, D. J. Damen, R. M. Lerch, L. P. Zerr, J. M. U11e and
Ms. P. L. Eng of this office on January 4, 1989 through February 17, 1989,
of activities at the Zion Nuclear Generating Station, authorized by Licenses
No. DPR-39 and No. DPR-48, and to the discussion of our findings with
Mr. G. Plim1 at the conclusion of the inspection. Additional findings were
discussed with Mr. T. Joyce on February 17, 1989.
The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during
the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective
examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and
interviews with personnel.
During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in violation
of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice. A written response
is required.
Paragraph 13 of this report documents our findings with regard
to allegations of problems with communications at Zion. I am concerned with
the apparent lack of communications between the Zion plant management and the
plant staff, most notably the station operators.
I feel this is significant
and have discussed this matter in general terms with T. Maiman of your staff
on several occasions. Once you have had an opportunity to review this report,
I would like to schedule a meeting to discuss your perception of the problems
and corrective actions that have or will be taken to avoid similar future
problems. Please contact me or W. Forney of my staff.
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.
The responses directed by this letter and the accompanying Notice are not
subject to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget
as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-511.
