NOTICE OF VIOLATION

NRC INSPECTION REPORT

NOS. 50-275/92-31

AND 50-323/92-31

This refers to the routine inspection

conducted

by D. Corporandy, J. Helfi,

H. Hiller, C. Hyers,

and

B. Olson during the period from September

29 through

November 9,

1992.

This inspection

examined your activities

as authorized

by

NRC License

Nos.

DPR-80

and DPR-82.

At the conclusion of the inspection,

the

inspectors

discussed their findings with members of the

PG3E 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 certain of your

activities were not conducted

in full compliance with NRC requirements,

as set

forth in the enclosed

Notice of Violation (Notice),

and in the enclosed

inspection report (Paragraph

6).

In October

1991, at the close of the Unit 2

outage,

you correctly i'dentified and reported

an inadequate

program to control

'oose

material in the Unit 2 containment.

However,

NRC inspectors identified

similar materials in the Unit

1 containment at the close of the October

1992

outage,

indicating that your corrective actions

had not addressed

this

weakness

in a sufficiently comprehensive

manner .

Before completion of this

inspection,

the inspectors

confirmed that your organization

has taken or

initiated corrective actions which satisfactorily address this concern before

the next scheduled

outage.

Consequently,

a written response

to the enclosed

Notice is not required..

A non-ci,ted violation was also noted,

involving documentation

and periodic

verification of jumpers,

as discussed

in Paragraph

13 of the enclosed report.

Since the criteria of the

NRC Enforcement Policy were satisfied, this

violation was not cited.

An area of noteworthy strength

was identified.

Concerning

outage safety,

your

Unit

1 shutdown safety requirements

appeared

to have

been well developed

and

implemented.

Operations

and outage

management

appeared

to have maintained

a

very high level of safety system availability and configuration control during

the outage.

You are encouraged

to maintain this high level of safety.
