A. Summary of Meeting with Illinois Power Company on December 17, 1986
The findings ar.d conclusions of the SALP board documented in Inspection
Report No. 50-461/86005 were discussed with the licensee on December 17,
1986, at the Region III offices in Glen Ellyn, Illinois.
The licensee's regulatory performance was presented in each functional
ared. Overall, the licensee's performance was found to be acceptable.
The licensee was found to have a high level of performance in the
l Preoperational Testing assessment area. The areas of Quality Assurance
and Administrative Controls Affecting Quality, and Maintenance were
found to need increased licensee management attention due to multiple
weaknesses identified in controlling the turnover of systems from
construction to testing and operations, following procedures, identifying
and correcting problems, and in the area of maintenance of equipment.
All other functional areas were found to be adequate and represented a
licensee management team that was sufficiently staffed and appropriately
involved and concerned with nuclear safety.
The following licensee and NRC personnel attended the meeting.

B. Comments Received from Licensee
By letters dated December 30, 1986 and March 17, 1987, the licensee
-
.
i-
provided written comments on the SALP report and what steps were being
taken to: improve performance in the maintenance area and in quality
, programs and ' administrative controls affecting quality.
With regard to the SALP the licensee stated on page 2 of 8 of the
December 30, 1986, memo that the NRC had incorrectly noted that IP had
committed to complete action in each area prior to exceeding 5% power.
The NRC's intent in the partgraphs was to have each area completed or
,
improved to the. extent necessary to permit licensing the plant for full
power. We have reviewed the projected completion dates and found them
acceptable. A change has been made to page 18 of the SALP report to
reflect the intent of our statement.
