INSPECTION

REPORT 50-275/95-16;

50-323/95-16

AND NOTICE OF

VIOLATION

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by J. Dixon-Herrity, J.Russell,

and

S.

Boynton of this office on October

29,

1995 through

December

9,

1995, at the

Diablo Canyon Nuclear

Power Plant,

Units

1 and 2, facility.

The purpose of

the inspection

was to determine

whether activities authorized

by the license

were conducted safely

and in accordance

with NRC requirements.

At the conclu-

sion 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.

The results of this inspection

are documented

in the

enclosed

report.

Based

on the results of this inspection,

the

NRC has determined that two

violations of NRC requirements

occurred.

The violations are cited in the

enclosed

Notice of Violation (Notice)

and the circumstances

surrounding

them

are described

in detail in the subject inspection report.

The violations are

of concern,

because

they provide further examples of the failure of personnel

to follow procedures.

The first violation involves

an operator failure to

follow procedures

during

a reactor coolant

system draindown.

The second

violation involves operators

and maintenance

technicians failure to follow

procedures

(or make changes

to the procedures)

during testing of source

range

nuclear instruments.

The third violation involves the failure of cleaning

personnel

to follow procedures

to notify personnel

of a blocked fire door in

a

diesel

generator

room.

The violations indicate that continued effort is

needed

to assure

the corrective actions

taken after the Unit

1 transformer

fire are fully effective.

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 prevent recurrence.

Your response

may reference

or

include previous

docketed

correspondence, if the correspondence

adequately

addresses

the required

response.

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, its enclosure(s),

and your response will be placed in the

NRC

Public Document

Room

To the extent possible,

your response

include

any personal

privacy, proprietary,

or safeguards

information so that

it can

be placed

in the

PDR without reduction.
