ATTACHMENT RESPONSE TO INSPECTION REPORT NOS.
50-373/84-14 and 50-374/84-18 NONCOMPLIANCE:
1.
Technical Specification 6.1.1.4 requires that high radiation areas not equipped with computerized card readers be maintained locked except during periods when access to the area is required with positive control over each individual entry.
In the case of a high radiation area established for a period of 30 days or less, direct surveillance to prevent unauthorized entry may be substituted.
Contrary to the above, an NRC inspector observed a contractor guard who was posted to provide direct surveillance of an unlocked high radiation area, apparently inattentive and also unaware of the specific area which required the direct surveillance thus entry to the high radiation area could have been made without the guard observing the entry.
CORRECTIVE ACTION TAKEN AND RESULTS ACHIEVED The officer was immediately relieved of duty on that post, and another officer replaced him.
CORRECTIVE ACTI'JN TAKEN TO AVOID FURTHER NONCOMPLIANCE The officer observed as being inattentive by the NRC inspector was retrained, counseled in proper work practices and a warning letter was placed in the officer's personal file on May 23, 1984.
DATE OF FULL COMPLIANCE Full compliance was achieved on May 23, 1984.
