NOTICE OF VIOLATION

INSPECTION

REPORT

NO. 50-323/92-14

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Hr. C. Hyers of this office on

April 13 through

Hay 13,

1992.

The inspection

included

a review of activities

authorized for your Diablo Canyon 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 this inspection

are identified in the enclosed report.

Within these

areas,

the inspection consisted of selective

examinations of

procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and

observations

of activities in progress.

Based

on the results of this inspection,

one of your activities appeared

to be

in violation of NRC requirements,

as specified in the enclosed

Notice of

Violation (Notice).

The violation involved

a failure to have appropriate

'ritten

instructions for a certain

assembly activi.ty during installation of

the sixth diesel

generator.

While considered of minor safety significance,

the violation is of concern

because

of the need for attention to detail in the

documentation of construction activities potentially affecting the seismic

qualification of the diesel

generator.

One other violation, involving a

failure to inform the shift foreman of a potential

inadequacy affecting the

seismic qualification of the operable diesel generatiors,

is not being cited

because

adequate

corrective actions

were completed during the inspection.

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 action 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 enforcement

action is

necessary

to ensure

compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.

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,

Pub.

L. No. 96.511.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice",

a copy of

this letter

and the enclosure will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.
