SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-369/89-15 AND 50-370/89-15

This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted by

B. R. Crowley.on June 5-9 and 19-23, 1989. The inspection included a review of

activities authorized for your McGuire facility. At the conclusion of the

inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff

identified in the enclosed Inspection Report.

Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. The

inspection was performance based, directed toward evaluation of equipment

conditions, observation of in-process maintenance activities, review of-

equipment histories, and evaluation of performance indicators, maintenance

control procedures, and the overall maintenance program.

The inspection findings are summarized in the Executive Summary of the report.

In general, the findings show' that you have developed a good maintenance

program with good implementation. Particularly noteworthy in contributing to

an overall good program was a strong well staffed maintenance organization,

a good training program, a good data base and equipment records system, and

a strong QA/QC organization. Your attention is invited to the weaknesses

identified in the report. In particular, wcaknesses relative to. the PM

program for molded case circuit breakers, quality of completed work requests,

and deficiency tagging should receive attention. In addition, we are' concerned

with the lack of attention to detail displayed in your submittal made in

response to Generic Letter 88-14 and in Licensee Event Report 88-36. Inade-

quate coordination between licensing. Engineering, and plant staff was apparent

and resulted in several errors.- Please provide a written response indicating

actions you will or have taken to ensure the quality of future submittals.

Within the scope of the inspection, no violations or deviations were

identified.

In accordance with Section 2.790- of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2
