Attention;
Mr. J.

Gentlemen:
Subject:
NRC Inspection of Diablo Canyon Units
1 and
2
This refers to the special
inspection,
conducted
by Messrs.
P.
P. Narbut,
J. L. Crews,
A. D. Johnson
and
R.
P. Correia during the period of February
19
through 26,
1987.
This inspection
examined your activities
as authorized
by
NRC License
Nos.
and DPR-82.
At the conclusion of the inspection,
discussions
of their findings were held with Mr. J.
M. Gisclon,
and other
members of your staff.
Areas
examined during this inspection
are described
in the enclosed
inspection
report.
Within these
areas,
the inspection consisted of selective
examinations
of procedures
and representative
records,
interviews with
personnel,
and observations
by the inspectors.
Based
on the results of this inspection, it appears
that
one of your
activities
was not conducted
in full compliance with NRC requirements,
as set
forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed
herewith
as Appendix A.
Your
response
to this notice is to be submitted in accordance
with the provisions
of 10 CFR 2.201
as stated in Appendix A, Notice of Violation.
The violation identifi'ed in the enclosed
notice resulted
from a concern
brought to our inspectors'ttention
during the course of the current
inspection.
In pursuing the concern
brought to their attention our inspectors
concluded that ineffective communication
between
the
gC and Maintenance
departments
was
a significant factor contributing to the delay of
approximately
a year in resolving the
gC department's'oncern
in this
instance.
In your response
to the enclosed
notice you should discuss
the
significance of the circumstances
surrounding this violation, and the apparent
excessive
delays that have occurred in resolving adverse quality findings in
this instance
as well as similar instances
discussed
in Section
5.C of the
enclosed
inspection report.

The enclosed
inspection report also includes
the observation
by our inspectors
of a need
on the part of PG&E management
at all levels to increase their
sensitivity to circumstances
which may suggest
the lack, or lessening,
of
appropriate
support for the quality organizations
associated
with the Diablo
Canyon plant.
In your response
to this letter, please
discuss
the steps
you
are taking, or plan to take, in this regard.
Your response
should describe
how you intend to seek out the root causes
for such circumstances
at all
levels of management,
and,
having
done so,
how you expect to improve the
performance of management
in acting in a timely and appropriately aggressive
way to correct those conditions.
In accordance
with 10 CFR 2.790(a),
a copy of this letter and the enclosures
will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
The responses
directed
by this letter are not subject to the clearance
procedures
of the Office of Management
and Budget
as required
by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1980,
PL 96-511.
Should you have
any questions
concerning this inspection,
we are willing to
discuss
them with you.
