SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-261/93-11)

This refers to the inspection conducted by W. T. Orders of this office on

May 15 - June 11, 1993.

The inspection included a review of activities

authorized for your H. B. Robinson facility. At the conclusion of the

inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff

identified in the enclosed inspection report.

Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within

these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures

and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of

activities in progress.

Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of NRC requirements as specified in the enclosed Notice of

Violation (Notice). We are particularly concerned about the violation

involving an erroneous deletion of a procedural precaution, for it is similar

to a non-cited violation contained in Inspection Report 93-05 which was sent

to you by our letter dated April 9, 1993. Recurring violations are of

particular concern because the NRC expects licensees to learn from their past

failures and to take effective corrective actions. Although the NRC does not

normally consider monetary civil penalties for Severity Level IV violations,

the Enforcement Policy states that such penalties may be imposed for severity

level IV violations for which the licensee did not take effective corrective

action. In this case, we have decided not to hold an enforcement conference

nor to propose a civil penalty because of the minor significance of the

violation and the prompt corrective actions initiated upon the identification

of this violation.

You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions

specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. In your

response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional

actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this

Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future

inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is

necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of

this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

The responses directed by this letter and its enclosed Notice are not subject

to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget as required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, Pub. L. No.96-511.

Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact us.

Sincerely,
