SUBJECT: COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000397/2014003
Dear Mr. Reddemann:
On June 23, 2014, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Columbia Generating Station. On June 26, 2014, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Bruce MacKissock, Plant General Manager, and other members of your staff. The inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report. NRC inspectors documented six findings of very low safety significance (Green) in this report. Five of these findings involved violations of NRC requirements. Additionally, NRC inspectors documented one Severity Level IV violation with no associated finding. Further, inspectors documented three licensee-identified violations which were determined to be of very low safety significance in this report. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region IV; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC resident inspector at the Columbia Generating Station. If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region IV; and the NRC resident inspector at the Columbia Generating Station. In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
