SUMMARY

-0F-WEEKLY _INFORMATION REPORT e

. eek Ending May 22, 1981 W

l Sequoyah Unit 1-A Notice 'of Violation was issued to the licensee on' May 21,1981 based

.on alleged. violations' associated with the improper operation of the l

containment' spray system at the plant on February 11, 1981'. The

violations included:

1) inadequate.on-the-job, training of an auxiliary -

operator,:2) failure to implement appropriate procedures, and

3) inadequate administrative procedures.

Meeting with Congresswoman Marge Roukema On May 18,1981, NRC staff participated in a meeting in Congresswoman Roukema's office to discuss.the thorium contamination recently discovered at two private. residences in Maywood, New Jersey. 00E agreed to undertake a radiological assessment of the two residences to determine the extent _of ground contami' nation and what remedial actions are needed to reduce radiation exposures to acceptable levels.

EPA was asked to determine how funds might be made available from the Superfund Act to pay the cost of the required remedial actions.

t Radiation Policy Council On May 21, 1981, the Working Group of the Radiation Policy Council met to conti6ue'.its reexamination of the Federal guidance functicn for radiation protection which is now exercised by EPA. The Council is expected to go out of business at the end of the fiscal year.

In addition to lacking funding for FY '82, Carl Gerber, the Council's Director, met with reoresentatives of OMB who informed him that they are fundamentally opposed to interagency working grouos. An EPA l

member reported that it would take until December 1981 for EPA to analyze the-coments on their " Federal Radiation Protection Guidance fer Occupational Exposures" and to develoo a new strategy based on that analysis. There have been significant negative comments on most j

of the important features of the proposed guidance.

Final Report of Tsuruga Incident l

Tokyo newspapers are reporting that the final MITI report on the recent "Tsuruga Incident" was completed and delivered to the Nuclear Safety Commission on May 18. A copy is expected in the office of the MITI representative in Washington within the next week.

. Item of Interest Week ending May 30, 1981 Use of Recording Devices in Connection with Telephone Service

^

The. Federal Communications Commission in a Memorandun Opinion and Order

_(FCC-81-217,29301, Docket No. 20840, released May 18,.1981), requires the ibeep tone or the prior consent of all parties for recording telephone con-

.versations. Three exceptions to the re;ised tariff provision have been included in the Order; the first of which pertains to the NRC Operations Center:

"We have decided to allow three exceptions to the revised tariff requirement which will. supersede.the five current exceptions.1The first exception is for incoming-calls made to telephone numbers publicized for emergencies and

- outgoing calls made in immediate response.

In many types of emergency situ-ations, such as 'those involving fire, health care, and police, it is infeasible to obtain consent, and.use of the beep tone'could confuse callars or obliterate important portions of the message. Therefore we will not require the beep tone or prior consent for the recording of calls reporting or made in immediate response to these emergencies.. Recordings made at the Department of Defense Command Centers and the Operat'ons Center of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will be included under this exception. See 59 FCC 2d 538 (1976) and Mimeo No.

06482 (January 29,1981).

" The secund exception is for the recording of. calls made for patently un-lawful. purposes, such as bomb threats, kidnap ransom requests, and obscene telephone calls. -Outgoing calls made in immediate response to such a call will also be excepted. Under thir exception the U. S. Secret Service will still be allowed to record calls-referred to it.which threaten the safety and security of the President, his immediate family, and the White House.

' The third exception is for recordings made pursuant to an explicit and lawful order of a. court issued pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 52516. We adopt this exception so that our requirement will not hinder law enforcement efforts or conflict with Title III of the Omnibus Act."

~ dated February 27, 1980.

During the period May 15, 1981. through May 21, 1981, the effluents contained no detectable radioactivity at the discharge point although individual affluent sources which originated within Unit 2 contained usinute amounts of radioactivity.

Calculations indicate that less than 1 millionth (0.000001) of a curie of Cs-137 was discharged. This represents Icss than 0.00001% of the permissabic total liquid activity as specified in Technical Specifications for operatlanal conmercial reactors.

Shipment of EPICOR-II Prefilter (PF-16) to Battelle Columbus Laboratories (BCL). As part of a DOE sponsured resin characterization study, PF-Ib was shipped to the DCL in West Jefferson, Ohio, on Hay 19,1981.

This research effort is to supplement the development of technology for safely processing contaminated resins and to evaluate liner material compatability.

PF-16 was part of the 1st stage EPICOR-II treatment process for the accident generated water collected in the Auxiliary Building.

Prior to shipment, special preparations were made to ensure that PF-16 did r;nt contain significant quantities of nonradioactive gases that could be generated by organic resin degradation (e.g.,

11. hydrocarbon gases, etc.) While gas generation was indicated 2(a result of the approximately 16 month on-site storage period),

- 0FFICE OF NUCLEAR MATERIAL SAFETY AND SAFEGUARDS Items of Interest Week Ending May 22. 1981 Integration of Reactor Safeguards Rules

-The~ staff is drafting an information paper that-indicates its intent to coordinate several reactor safeguards rulemaking activities. These are:

1.

Reactor Access Authorization Rule

2.. Modifications to Appendix B of Part 73 concerning guard force applicant identity verification 3.- Amendments to 10-CFR 73.55 concerning~ vital area designation and protection 4

Amendments to.10 CFR 73.55 concerning final requirements for entry searches-The staff feels that the perception of "racheting" licensees could be reduced if these related activities are coordinated and addressed in a common policy session'.

B&W Navy-Lynchburg 10 SRD/ Evaluation As part of the contract effort, NRC-02-81-028 " Evaluation of Material Accounting Performance at Nuclear Fuel Cycle Facilities", Nusac, Inc., and NRC personnel visited the B&W Navy fuel manufacturing facility at Lynchburg, Virginia,- during the week of May 11, 1981. Data was collected and discussions held with facility personnel in order to evaluate B&W's material accounting experience.

The AMASS model will be applied to independently compute the LEID and any differences with B&W results will be reconciled. The ID variance contribution due to non-measurement sources will be assessed by statistically examining B&W's historic'ID performance over the past several years.

Preliminary results of the evaluation should be available by the end of June.

Meeting of Developers of High-Level Waste Forms for Defense Waste i

.The Savannah River Laboratory (SRL) sponsored a meeting of developers of high-level

. waste forms for defense waste i.. Atlanta on May 18 and 19. The purpose of the meeting was to allow respective developers to present proce:..ing and performance information on waste forms they have be2n developing under SRL/ DOE contracts to a Peer Review Panel. The Panel's job is to assess the information and select two l

. most promising waste forms. The waste forms reviewed by the panel were SYNROC, I

tailored ceramics, high-silica glass,'borosilicate glass, FUETAP concrete,

(

coated ceramic particles, and glass or ceramic " marbles" in a metal matrix, i

The conclusions were that borosilicate glass and one other alternate form, not l-yet selected would be designated for further development for potential use in immobilizing high level defense waste.

So far, the instrument line insulation problem seems to have been corrected. The PMG approved a somewhat reduced test matrix in an attempt to recover from delays caused by the insulation problem and overall funding constraints. The PMG also approved the' first-three BWR/6 transient tests so that a costly delay will_ not result while the PMG reviews the total test matrix.
