      Gentlemen:
      Enclosed for your review, prior to our scheduled meeting of July 21, 1986, is the
      SALP 6 Board Report for the Big Rock Point Plant covering the period November 1,
      1984 through March 31, 1986.
      In accordance with NRC policy, I have reviewed the SALP Board assessment and
      concur with the assigned ratings. It is my view that Consumers Power Company's
      conduct of nuclear activities in connection with the Big Rock Point Plant shows
      an appropriate concern for nuclear safety. Specific areas I would like to high-
      light are:
      1.  Performance in the area of Licensing Activities improved from a Category 2
            to a Category 1 rating this period. Training and Qualification Effective-
            ness, a new functional area, was also rated a Category 1.
      2.    Performance in the areas of Plant Operations and Surveillance and Inservice
            Testing were rated as Category 2 during this period. This represents a
            decrease from the Category 1 ratings during our last assessment. The
            performance decrease in these functional areas was due to: increased
            frequency of personnel errors and problems encountered in implementing
            administrative controls (Plant Operations); as well as missed surveillances
            (Surveillance and Inservice Testing).
      3.    Performance in the new functional area of Outages is given a Category 3
            rating this period. This rating is a reflection of the breakdown of
            administrative controls over the outage process and resulted in a Severity
            Level III violation during the middle of the SALP period. Since that time
            there has been no opportunity to date to evaluate the effectiveness of your
            corrective measures.
      4.    A Category 1 rating was maintained in the area of Emergency Preparedness.
            This has also been the case for SALP Cycles 4 and 5. Consequently we plan
            to reduce regional inspection activities in this area.    Even though you
            have maintained a Category 1 rating in the Security area during this
            assessment period the level of regional inspection activities will not be
            reduced. This is due to the aging security equipment and continued low
            morale at the guard force.
      While you will have sufficient opportunity to present your comments at the
      meeting on July 21, 1986, we also solicit written comments within 30 days after
      the meeting to enable us to thoroughly evaluate your coments and provide you
      with our conclusions relative to them                                            gqQ

Gentlemen:

Enclosed for your review, prior to our scheduled meeting of July 21, 1986, is the

SALP 6 Board Report for the Big Rock Point Plant covering the period November 1,

1984 through March 31, 1986.

In accordance with NRC policy, I have reviewed the SALP Board assessment and

concur with the assigned ratings. It is my view that Consumers Power Company's

conduct of nuclear activities in connection with the Big Rock Point Plant shows

an appropriate concern for nuclear safety. Specific areas I would like to high-

light are:

1. Performance in the area of Licensing Activities improved from a Category 2

to a Category 1 rating this period. Training and Qualification Effective-

ness, a new functional area, was also rated a Category 1.

2. Performance in the areas of Plant Operations and Surveillance and Inservice

Testing were rated as Category 2 during this period. This represents a

decrease from the Category 1 ratings during our last assessment. The

performance decrease in these functional areas was due to: increased

frequency of personnel errors and problems encountered in implementing

administrative controls (Plant Operations); as well as missed surveillances

(Surveillance and Inservice Testing).

3. Performance in the new functional area of Outages is given a Category 3

rating this period. This rating is a reflection of the breakdown of

administrative controls over the outage process and resulted in a Severity

Level III violation during the middle of the SALP period. Since that time

there has been no opportunity to date to evaluate the effectiveness of your

corrective measures.

4. A Category 1 rating was maintained in the area of Emergency Preparedness.

This has also been the case for SALP Cycles 4 and 5. Consequently we plan

to reduce regional inspection activities in this area. Even though you

have maintained a Category 1 rating in the Security area during this

assessment period the level of regional inspection activities will not be

reduced. This is due to the aging security equipment and continued low

morale at the guard force.

While you will have sufficient opportunity to present your comments at the

meeting on July 21, 1986, we also solicit written comments within 30 days after

the meeting to enable us to thoroughly evaluate your coments and provide you

with our conclusions relative to them gqQ
