Theodore A. Easitck, Senior Resident Inspector, Millstone Unit 1 SP0, NRR
SUBJECT:
MILLETONEUNIT1RECOMMENDEDCOREINSPECTIONPRdGRAMPROCEDURES' The licensee has announced that there will be further reductions in restart activities at Unit I through the end of 1998. Activities associated with the implementation of the configuration management program (CMP) will be reduced to a level of effort to support completion and documentation of the work performed to date.
The total number,of Unit 1 iersonnel will be reduced from approximately 300 to 200, to provide support for the mgoing restart efforts at Units 2 and 3.
Currently, the licensee is reviewing the Unit 1 e tnagement organization to facilit ate the reduction in staff.
In addition, the number of unit directors will be reduced from five to one.
The remaining Unit 1 personnel will focus'their efforts on performing corrective and preventative maintenance in order to maintain the plant in a safe shutdown condition.
The licensee plans to resume restart activities at Unit 1 in 1999.
The core inspection program was reviewed in light of the reduction in plant-staffing and activities in 1998.
Concerning the core program, Manual Chapter 2515 states:
o' The core inspection procedures must be completed at every plant at a prescribed interval.
o The inspection program provides Regional Administrators flexibility in the application of inspection resources to deal with issues and problems at specific plants.
o There is an estimate of the hours associated with each inspection procedure. These hours refer to the estimated average times to complete an inspection procedure at single, dual, and triple unit sites. The estimates include consideration of the effort needed for the early identification of problems and detection of declining performance.
O These estimates are not goals, standards, or limitations; rather, they are included to assist in planning resource allocations, and will be revised periodic &1ly, based on actual performance experience, o
Actual inspection hours expended on the core program can be more or less than the estimates contained in the procedures.
In reality, there is a range of expected inspection effort for each inspection procedure.
l The core' inspection program for Unit I was reviewed and revised such that the inspection activities could be reduced and performed by one resident inspector.
The proposed inspection program will adequately provide for direct observation and verification of licensee ongoing activities.
The core inspection procedures that deal with site-wide programs, such as fire protection, l

s:curity, and emergency preparedness, should Dal be reduced since those programs are
. common to the site and will be inspected by regional inspection staff in accordance with th2ir normal core inspection activities.
The inspection procedures associated with the licensed operator requalification program cvaluation and the effectiveness of licensee corrective actions program should not be reduced since those programs are required in the current mode of operation.
Inspection Procedure 60801, " Spent Fuel Pool Safety At Permanently Shutdown Reactors,"
sh:uld be added to the core program to verify the safe wet storage of spent fuel at Unit 1.
While the licensee has not stated that the unit will be permanently shutdown, the inspection requirements for this procedure are applicable to the Unit 1 mode of operation for the upcoming year.
Appendix A of MC 2515, revised to reflect the proposed Unit 1 inspection hours, are illustrated by parentheses under the "MS-1" column.
For inspection procedures 73753,
" Inservice Inspection," 93809, "SSEI," and 93801, "SSFI," no inspection hours are proposed (see notes 3&4 on Appendix A).

- For multi-unit sites, rotate the inspection effort among units, i.e., normally one unit each stated frequency.
The rotation may be varied to allow observation of scheduled or unscheduled safety significant activities.
- Normally performed during a refueling or major outage.
If no such outage occurs during the SALP cycle, the Regional Administrator may waive the requirement to perform this inspection procedure.
- One of these three inspection procedures (93801, 93809, or 37550) shall be performed every SALP cycle.
