SUBJECT:
REISSUED - SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT - NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000327/2018013 AND 05000328/2018013
Dear Mr. Shea:
On December 4, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued the subject inspection report for Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Agencywide Document and Management System (ADAMS) Accession Number ML18338A404. After the inspection report was issued, the NRC noted that the report summary incorrectly stated, a licensee-identified non-cited violation is documented in the inspection results section of the report. Accordingly, we have revised Inspection Report (IR) 05000327/2018013 and 05000328/2018013, to document the necessary changes. Please replace the original report with the report enclosed. This reissued report does not change any NRC position that has been communicated in the previously issued report.
This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) monitored the licensees performance by conducting an inspection at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information.
List of Findings and Violations No NRC findings were identified
REPORT DETAILS
INSPECTION SCOPE
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.
OTHER ACTIVITIES
- TEMPORARY INSTRUCTIONS, INFREQUENT AND ABNORMAL 92702 - Follow-up on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternative Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) Confirmatory Order (CO) EA-17-022 issued to TVA on July 27, 2017, (Section V.1.e.1) required, in part, that:
TVA shall perform an independent NSC assessment consistent with industry practices, at... Sequoyah Nuclear Plant and Corporate Nuclear... TVA shall compare the result of the assessment with prior years survey results in an effort to identify trends. TVA shall evaluate the results and develop, implement, and track to completion corrective actions to address weaknesses identified through the assessments. TVA shall make the results of each survey and the planned corrective actions available for NRC review after the development of the planned corrective actions.
During the October 2018 inspection for follow-up of NRC CO EA-17-022, inspectors reviewed the independent safety culture assessments performed for Sequoyah Nuclear Plant in April 2018 and for TVA Corporate Nuclear in May 2018.
The inspectors reviewed samples of various Executive Review Board packages along with safety conscious word environment (SCWE) screening and mitigation plans associated with actions taken under the Adverse Employee Action and Executive Review Board process to ensure that the Adverse Actions were being identified and reviewed in accordance with the applicable procedures and met the requirements of the CO.
93100 - Safety-Conscious Work Environment Issue of Concern Followup As part of inspection activities to sample SCWE issue follow-up, inspectors interviewed 15 TVA employees in the Licensing and Regulatory Affairs organizations at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant and TVA Corporate Nuclear, approximately 94% of the workforce in those groups.
Based on responses from the sampled group, personnel stated that they felt free to raise nuclear safety concerns without fear of retaliation.
