SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-269/96-04, 50-270/96-04 AND

Dear Mr. Hampton:

This refers to the inspection conducted on March 10, 1996 - April 20, 1996, at

the Oconee facility. The purpose of the inspection was to determine whether

activities authorized by the license were conducted safely and in accordance

with NRC requirements. At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings were

discussed with those members of your staff identified in the enclosed 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, the NRC has determined that a

violation of NRC requirements occurred. The violation is cited in the

enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) and the circumstances surrounding it are

described in detail in the subject inspection report.

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. Your response may reference or

include previous docketed correspondence, if the correspondence adequately

addresses the required response.

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 the NRC regulatory requirements.

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

this letter, its enclosures, and your response will be placed in the NRC

Public Document Room (PDR). To the extent possible, your-response should not

include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that

it can be placed in the PDR without redaction.
