Dear Mr. Kingsley:

This will acknowledge receipt of your letters dated January 22 and March 13,1998, in response to our letter dated December 16,1997, transmitting a Notice of Violation and a Notice of Deviation associated with inspection Report No. 50-254/97014(DRP); SC-265/97014(DRP). The Notice of Violation for this inspection report documented four violations with multiple examples.

We have reviewed your corrective actions to each of the violations and the deviation. We note that while you accepted and agreed with the first portion of violation 97014-07, involving incorporation of design requirements into surveillance testing for the safe shutdown makeup pump, you specifically disagreed with the last sentence of the violation involving the incorporation of instrument tolerances to ensure flow and system head design requirements would be met.  !

Further, you noted that the AE inspection, in progress at the time of your response, had similar instrument uncertainty issues. With respect to the incorporation of instrument tolerances for l violation 97014-07, we are continuing to review your response with the assistance of the Office of Nuclear Reacter Regulation. We will inform you by separate correspondence of our resolution on this aspect of the violation. With respect to the first portion of violation 97014-07, the other violations in Inspection Report 97014, and the deviation in Inspectior. Report 97014, we have reviewed your corrective actions and have no further questions at this time. These corrective actions will be examined during future inspections.

Sincerely, James L. Caldwell Deputy Regional Administrator Docket Nos.: 50-254;50-265 See Attached Distribution:
