SUBJECT:
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-261/90-30)
This refers to the inspection conducted by L. W. Garner on December 11, 1990
January 10, 1991. The inspection included a review of activities authorized
for your H. B. Robinson facility. At the conclusion of the inspection, the
findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the
enclosed inspection report.
.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice).We are concerned about the violation because the procedure
in question failed to require characterization and documentation of the
condition of a residual heat removal check valve component which is known to be
associated with a potential valve failure mode.
In addition to the need for corrective action regarding the specific matters
identified in the enclosed Notice, we are concerned about the implementation
of your maintenance procedure upgrade program that permitted this situation to
develop. Consequently, your response should describe those particular actions
taken or planned to improve the effectiveness of your maintenance procedure
upgrade program.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this

necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.

this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
