Based
on the results of this inspection,
certain of your activities appear to
be in violation of NRC requirements,
as set forth in the Notice of Violation,
enclosed
herewith

tion of undervoltage
relays
and your failure to evaluate
the drifting of over
current relays,
relays,
and timers and your failure to reassess
their surveillance intervals.
Drifting of instruments
outside their allowable
calibration range could result in inoperable safety-related
equipment which
would place the plant in an unanalyzed condition.
We are also concerned with
your use of inadequate
test procedures
and inappropriate test methods in your
testing of dc circuit breakers.
The test methods
used were not,representative
of actual
service conditions.
These violations have
been categorized
by Severity Level in accordance
with the
"General
Statement
of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Action," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix
C (Enforcement Policy).
You are required to respond to this
letter and in preparing your response,
you should follow the instructions in
