SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION (NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 237 /94005;

249/94005)

Dear Mr. Lyster:

This refers to the inspection conducted by M. Leach, A. M. Stone, C. Phillips,

and D. Chyu of this office on February 23 through April 11, 1994.

The

inspection included a review of activities authorized for your Dresden Nuclear

Station, Units 2 and 3.

At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings

were dis~ussed 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 purpose of the inspection was to determine

whether activities authorized by the license were conducted safely and in

accordance with NRC requirements.

A significant problem identified in the report is the continuing failure of

some supervisors to implement management's expectations in such areas as

radiological practices and work package documentation.

Management's failure

to correct this issue is a weakness.

Your actions to improve supervisor

performance will be one of the subjects at our next management meeting.

Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of

Violation (Notice).

The violation was cited for failure to maintain control

of locked valves on certain safety related systems.

The violation is of

concern because positive control of certain system components is essential to

safe operation.

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. After reviewing your response to this
