Even though you admit the violation, we.do not agree with your assessment that measures were adequate, at the time of the violation, to control eddy current testing of steam generator tubes. In accordance with your response, only "53 of 57 or 93% of pluggable indications" were properly identified by the first analysi The NRC does not consider that proper disposition of 93% of the pluggable tubes indicates adequrte contro We will examine the implementation of your corrective actions during future inspection We appreciate your cooperation in this matte Since rely ,
