Gentlemen:

Subject:

Combined Inspection

Nos.

50-387/89-27

and 50-388/89-24

This letter refers to the routine safety inspection'onducted

by

Mr. A. L. Della Greca of this office on August 21-25,

1989 at your corporate

offices in Allentown, Pennsylvania

of the activities authorized

by

NRC License

Nos.

NPF-14 and NPF-22 and to the discussions

of our findings held by

Mr. Della Greca with members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

The areas

examined during this inspection

are described

in the

NRC Region I

Inspe'ction

Report which is enclosed with this letter and included your corrective

actions resulting

from 12 equipment qualification related violations and unre-

solved items applicable to both of the Susquehanna

Units.

Within these

areas,

the inspection consisted

of selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observations

by the inspector.

Your

corrective actions for the six violations and for the six open

items were 'found

to be acceptable

and the issues

are closed.

We also reviewed your response

to ou} Notice of Violation II.A.2, regarding

qualification of Target

Rock solenoid valves, that was transmitted with our

letter of September

19,

1988,

and the related information provided with your

letter of November 28,

1988.

After careful consideration

of the finding and of

your response

and supporting data

we have concluded that the deficiency identi-

fied does constitute

a violation of 10 CFR 50.49

and sufficient basis

was not

provided for withdrawal of the violation.

Also, there is no immediate

concern

regarding the qualified life of the Target

Rock solenoid valves,

but your

calculations to justify extending their qualified life were determined to be

inadequate.

(See Sections

3.8 and 4.0 of the enclosed report.)

No reply to this letter is required.'our

cooperation with us in this matter

is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Marvin W. Hodges,

Director

Division of Reactor Safety
