NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-275/97003; 50-323/97003 AND NOTICE OF

VIOLATION

Dear Mr. Rueger:

This refers to the inspection conducted

on March 16 through April 26, 1997, at your

Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Units

1 and 2 reactor facilities. The enclosed report

present's the scope and results of that inspection.

'I

During the inspection period three violations were identified. Two violations are related to

the Unit

1 turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump and reflect the need to focus additional

management

attention on assuring that deficient conditions are identified and addressed

promptly and actions are taken to resolve the root causes

of the deficiencies.

The first

violation involved the failure to implement corrective actions to improve controls for

painting activities which affected that Unit 1 turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump.

The

second, violation involved the failure to properly translate design information into

calculations and plant emergency

operating procedures.

The third violation involved the

failure to initiate appropriate corrective actions after identifying abnormally high

concentrations

of water in the Unit 1 turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump governor.

Your staff continues to demonstrate

a strong capability to identify problems; however,

corrective actions for identified deficiencies were noted to have not been effectively

implemented.

In accordance

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

a copy of this letter,

its enclosures,

and your response

will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR).

To the extent possible,

your. response

should not include any personal privacy, proprietary,

or safeguards

information so that it can be placed in the PDR without redaction.
