REPORT 50-275/96009'0-323/96009

AND

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear Nr. Rueger:

On Hay 25,

1996,

the

NRC completed

an inspection at your Diablo Canyon Nuclear

Power Plant, Units

1

and 2, facility.

The enclosed

report presents

the

results of that inspection.

During the inspection period, your conduct of activities at the Diablo Canyon

facilities, with emphasis

on the refueling activities for Unit 2,

was

generally characterized

by safety-conscious

operations

and sound maintenance

and engineering

practices.

One violation was identified by the

NRC inspectors

and involved the failure to perform

a safety evaluation to support

a temporary

modification which had

been formalized into an equipment control guideline.

This temporary modification was not in conformance with the Updated Final

Safety Analysis Report.

A second violation, identified by your staff is also

being cited

(LER 50/323-96-002).

This violation is of concern

since your

actions,

to date,

to ensure

the operability of the fuel handling building

ventilation system during movement of loads over the spent fuel pool,

have not

been fully effective.

This finding coupled with the inspector finding that

actions

taken in response

to a previously identified violation related to the

replacement

of actuator pins for main steam isolation valves were not being

tracked,

indicate

a need for improvements

in your corrective actions

program.

The violations are cited in the enclosed

Notice of Violation.

The

circumstances

surrounding

the violations are described

in detail

in the

enclosed

report.

Please

note that you are required to respond to this letter

and should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed

Notice when

preparing your response.

The

NRC will use your response,

in part, to

determine

whether further enforcement

action is necessary

to ensure

compliance

with regulatory requirements.
