Subject:

Inspection

No. 50-244/80-06

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Mr. J. Serabian of this office on

April 29-May 2,

1980 of activities authorized

by

NRC License

No.

DPR-18 and to

the discussions

of our findings held by Mr. Serabian with Mr. B. Snow and others

of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

Areas

examined during this inspection are described

in the Office of Inspection

and Enforcement

Inspection

Report which is enclosed with this letter.

Within

these

areas,

the inspection consisted of selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

measurements

made

by the

inspector,

and observations

by the inspector.

Based

on the results of this inspection, it appears

that one of your activities

was not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements,

as set forth in the

Notice of Violation, enclosed

herewith

as Appendix A.

This item of noncompliance

has

been categorized

into the levels

as described

in our correspondence

to you

dated

December

31, 1974.

This notice is sent to you pursuant to the provisions

of Section

2.201 of the

NRC's "Rules of Practice,"

Part 2, Title 10,

Code of

Federal

Regulations.

Section

2.201 requires

you to submit to this office,

within twenty (20) -days of your receipt of this notice,

a written statement

or

explanation in reply including:

(1) corrective steps

which have

been taken

by

you and the results

achieved;

(2) corrective steps

which will be taken to avoid

further items of noncompliance;

and (3) the date

when full compliance will be

achieved.

Another activity appears

to be

a deviation from generally acceptable

industry

practice,

in that personnel

were observed intentionally handling contaminated

or

potentially contaminated

material without wearing protective gloves.

With

respect to this finding, which is discussed

in the enclosed

inspection report as

a Deviation, please

include in your response

your comments

concerning this item.
