Attention:

Mr. J.

Gentlemen:

Subject:

NRC Inspection of Diablo Canyon Units 1 and

2

This refers to the routine inspection

conducted

by Messrs.,

P.

P.

Narbut and

K.

E. Johnston

during the period, of September

10 through October 28, 1989,

and

November 20,

1989.

This inspection

examined your activities

as authorized

by

NRC License

Nos.

DPR-80 and

DPR-82.

At the conclusion of the inspection,

discussions

of their findings were held with Mr. J.

D. Townsend,

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.

In the course of this inspection,

a number of examples

of management

oversight

concerns

were observed.

The examples

are listed in the "Results" section of

the report and discussed

in greater detail in the report body.

Two findings

highlight our concerns:

o

In an amendment

request to extend the allowed o'utage

time of the swing

diesel,

you provided erroneous

information about the ability to crosstie

diesel

generators

between units.

Plant personnel

discovered

the error

following the issuance, of the amendment,

at the

commencement

of the seven

.day swing diesel

outage.

On October 26, the inspector

found that numerous

maintenance

personnel

had been allowed to work more than

72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> in a seven

day period without

the approval

or knowledge of plant management.

Additionally, following a

commitment to review the implementation of overtime limits, plant

management

failed to take aggressive

action, resulting in other

departments

exceeding

overtime limits.

These findings and others

described

in the report reenforce

a need for more

aggressive

and timely management

attention to problems.
