SUBJECT:
PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-277/02-10, 50-278/02-10
Dear Mr. Skolds:
On August 15, 2002, the NRC essentially completed the second of three inspections of your application for renewal of the operating licenses for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PSAPS), Units 2 and 3. Two members of the inspection team returned to Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station the week of September 16, 2002, to complete the inspection by performing a walkdown of the Unit 2 containment during the regularly scheduled outage. The results of the inspection were discussed with members of your staff on August 15, 2002, at a public exit meeting held at the Peach Bottom Inn, Restaurant and Lounge. The enclosed inspection report presents the results of that inspection.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Manual Chapter 2516, Policy and Guidance for the License Renewal Inspection Program, using NRC Inspection Procedure 71002, License Renewal Inspections. The inspection was the second of three NRC inspections that review your application for a renewed license for the PBAPS facilities. The inspection consisted of a selected examination of procedures and representative records, systems walkdowns, and interviews with personnel regarding the aging management of systems, structures and components within the scope of license renewal in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR Part 54).
The aging management portion of your license renewal activities were being implemented or planned as described in your license renewal application. The documentation supporting your application is in an auditable and retrievable form. The team identified three open items for which your staff must take further action to assure your application is complete and accurate:
(1) the aging management program that will be applied to fuse clips has not been specified, (2) one Boiling Water Owners Group Vessel Internals Program procedure was included in the application before the procedure was endorsed by the NRC, and (3) a training kit, used to assure that inspectors can identify cable aging effects, did not include samples of the kinds of cable that are installed at Peach Bottom. Except for these open items, your aging management programs can acceptably identify and manage the structures, systems, and components within the scope of license renewal.
Mr. John In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
If you have any questions, please contact David Lew of my staff at (610) 337-5120.
Sincerely,
/RA/
