SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-269/94-37, 50-270/94-37, AND

50-287/94-37)

Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by D. Charles Payne of this office on

December 16, 1994. The inspection included a review of activities authorized

for your Oconee facility. 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, certain of your .activities appear to

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

Violation (Notice).

The violations were cited for failure to follow

procedures and inadequate procedures in the area of surveillance testing. The

NRC is concerned that despite having an apparently good Instrument and

Controls technician training program in place, deficiencies of this type are

occurring with limited supervisory awareness.

The NRC is also concerned that

the occurrence of these variations from plant and management guidelines may be

more wide spread than these few examples reflect.

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 take to correct the above violations and deficiencies and

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 the enclosed Notices 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.96-511.
