SUBJECT: PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000255/2008011 PRELIMINARY WHITE FINDING
==Dear Mr. Schwarz:==
This letter provides you the final significance determination of the preliminary White finding discussed in our previous communication dated December 19, 2008, which included the subject inspection report. The finding involved a failure to meet the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 20.1501 which requires surveys (evaluations) of the radiological conditions and potential hazards incident to the use and presence of radioactive material or other sources of radiation. Specifically, the finding involved a failure to evaluate radiological hazards and assess dose to workers that handled tools used for reconstituting failed fuel during work on the refueling floor in October 2007.
 
In a January 5, 2009, telephone conversation with Mr. Steven Orth of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Region III, Ms. Laurie Lahti of your staff indicated that Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., did not contest the characterization of the risk significance of this finding and that you declined your opportunity to discuss this issue in a Regulatory Conference or to provide a written response.
 
After considering the information developed during the inspection, the NRC has concluded that the finding is appropriately characterized as White, i.e., a finding having low to moderate safety significance.
 
The NRC has also determined that the failure to evaluate radiological hazards and assess dose to workers is a violation of 10 CFR 20.1501, as cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice). The circumstances surrounding the violation were described in detail in the subject inspection report, dated December 19, 2008. In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, the Notice is considered escalated enforcement action because it is associated with a White finding.
 
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
 
C. Schwartz -2- Because plant performance for this issue has been determined to be beyond the licensee response band, we will use the NRC's Action Matrix to determine the most appropriate NRC response for this event. We will notify you, by separate correspondence, of that determination.


==Dear Mr. Schwarz:==
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response, will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRC
This refers to an inspection conducted between July 22, 2008, and November 19, 2008, at the Palisades Nuclear Plant. The purpose of the inspection was to review your evaluation of the radiological impact to workers during demobilization of refueling tools and equipment after fuel reconstitution, which was previously reported as an Unresolved Item (URI) in inspection report 05000255/2008002. The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection including a finding that has preliminarily been determined to be White, a finding with low to moderate increased importance to safety that may require additional NRC inspections, which were discussed on November 19, 2008, with you and members of your staff. As described in Section 4OA5 of this report, an apparent violation of 10 CFR 20.1501 was indentified for the failure to perform adequate radiological evaluations necessary to properly quantify the radiological hazards to assess the dose from the conditions that were identified through electronic dosimeter alarms (dose rate). On October 4, 2007, after you were notified of unexpected radiological conditions through electronic dosimeter alarms (dose rate), you failed to recognize radiological hazards in the work place. Specifically, you failed to recognize the presence of high beta dose rate discrete radioactive particles (DRPs) and removable alpha contamination and, therefore, failed to recognize the radiological hazard associated with the work activity. Consequently, you failed to account for the workers' extremity dose associated with handling the equipment, and with the workers' exposure to the particles. Additionally, you failed to recognize the presence of alpha contamination and, therefore, failed to assess potential intakes of alpha contamination that could result in total organ dose to the bone surfaces. After the finding was identified, your staff implemented corrective actions for all work involving the spent fuel pool to ensure that the finding did not present an immediate safety concern. This finding was assessed based on the best available information, using the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process (SDP). The final resolution of this finding will be conveyed in a separate correspondence. The finding is also an apparent violation of NRC requirements and is being considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the Enforcement Policy, which can be found on the NRC's Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/enforcement. Additionally, the enclosed report documents two related Non-Cited Violations (NCVs) of NRC requirements. In accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, we intend to complete our evaluation using the information obtained through our inspection and issue our final determination of safety significance within 90 days of the date of this letter. The significance determination process encourages an open dialogue between the NRC staff and the licensee; however, the dialogue should not impact the timeliness of the staff's final determination. Before we make a final decision on this matter, we are providing you with an opportunity to: (1) attend a Regulatory Conference where you can present to the NRC your perspective of the facts and assumptions the NRC used to arrive at the finding and assess its significance, or (2) submit your position on the finding to the NRC in writing. If you request a Regulatory Conference, it should be held within 30 days of the receipt of this letter, and we encourage you to submit supporting documentation at least one week prior to the conference in an effort to make the conference more efficient and effective. If a Regulatory Conference is held, it will be open for public observation. If you decide to submit only a written response, such submittal should be sent to the NRC within 30 days of your receipt of this letter. If you decline to request a Regulatory Conference or submit a written response, you relinquish your right to appeal the final SDP determination, in that by not doing either; you fail to meet the appeal requirements stated in the Prerequisite and Limitation Sections of Attachment 2 of IMC 0609. Please contact Steven Orth at (630) 829-9827 within ten days from the issue date of this letter to notify the NRC of your intentions. If we have not heard from you within ten days, we will continue with our significance determination and enforcement decision. The final resolution of this matter will be conveyed in a separate correspondence. Because the NRC has not made a final determination in this matter, no Notice of Violation is being issued for this inspection finding at this time. In addition, please be advised that the characterization of the apparent violation described in the enclosed inspection report may change as a result of further NRC review. Based on the results of this inspection, one NRC-identified and one self-revealed finding of very low safety significance were also identified. The findings involved a violation of NRC requirements. However, because of their very low safety significance, and because the issues were entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating the issues as NCVs in accordance with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the subject or severity of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001. with a copy to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission-Region III, 2443 Warrenville Road, Suite 210, Lisle, IL 60532-4352; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the Resident Inspector Office at the Palisades Nuclear Plant. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any), will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

SUBJECT: FINAL SIGNIFICANCE DETERMINATION FOR A WHITE FINDING AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION; NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 05000255/2008011; PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT

Dear Mr. Schwarz:

This letter provides you the final significance determination of the preliminary White finding discussed in our previous communication dated December 19, 2008, which included the subject inspection report. The finding involved a failure to meet the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 20.1501 which requires surveys (evaluations) of the radiological conditions and potential hazards incident to the use and presence of radioactive material or other sources of radiation. Specifically, the finding involved a failure to evaluate radiological hazards and assess dose to workers that handled tools used for reconstituting failed fuel during work on the refueling floor in October 2007.

In a January 5, 2009, telephone conversation with Mr. Steven Orth of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Region III, Ms. Laurie Lahti of your staff indicated that Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc., did not contest the characterization of the risk significance of this finding and that you declined your opportunity to discuss this issue in a Regulatory Conference or to provide a written response.

After considering the information developed during the inspection, the NRC has concluded that the finding is appropriately characterized as White, i.e., a finding having low to moderate safety significance.

The NRC has also determined that the failure to evaluate radiological hazards and assess dose to workers is a violation of 10 CFR 20.1501, as cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice). The circumstances surrounding the violation were described in detail in the subject inspection report, dated December 19, 2008. In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, the Notice is considered escalated enforcement action because it is associated with a White finding.

You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.

C. Schwartz -2- Because plant performance for this issue has been determined to be beyond the licensee response band, we will use the NRC's Action Matrix to determine the most appropriate NRC response for this event. We will notify you, by separate correspondence, of that determination.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response, will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRC
