SUBJECT:

PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION DESIGN INSPECTION

Dear Mr. Olivier:

During 'he time period of January 19 through February 27,1998, we have scheduled an on-site design inspection of your Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station. Your staff has indicated that there are nu major conflicts with onsite activities during this period. The two mechanical systems selected are the residual heat removal (RHR) and reactor building closed cooling water (RBCCW) systems. In addition, support and interface systems will be reviewed as well as the electrical distribution system. We will contact your staff to request material needed to support the on-site and off-site reviews. The team leader and two team members of the inspection team are scheduled to visit the site between December 22 and 23,1997, to ensure that all requested documentatirm has been provided to facilitate the in-office review and on-site inspection.

Recer.t NRC inspections at nuclear power reactor facilities have identified numerous nndings I

where the actual plant configuration or operations were inconsistent with the design basis, licensing basis, or the UFSAR. Thus, the purpose of this inspection is to evaluate the capability l

of the systems to perform efety functions required by their design and licensing bases and to verify consistency of the as 'ouilt configuration with the final safety analysis report. Inspection Procedure (IP) 93801, " Safety System Functional inspection" will be used to perform the design inspection.

Mr. Morris Branch, Team Leader, NRR, will interface with you and your staff regarding all matters related to this inspection. The inspection will be performed by a team of five engineers from Stone and Webster (S&W) Corporation who have been contracted by the NRC for this purpose.

Mr. Robert Najuch of S&W who is part of the five person team will be the lead contractor engineer.
