Attention:

Regulatory

Programs

Gentlemen:

SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

(NRC INSPECTION

REPORT

NO. 50-397/93-13)

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Messrs.

R. C. Barr,

D. L. Proulx,

and

W. L. Johnson of this office on March 30 through

May 10,

1993, of

activities authorized

by

NRC Operating

License

No. NPF-21,

and to the

discussions

of findings held by the inspectors with Mr. J.

Baker and other

members of the Supply System staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

Areas

examined during this inspection

are described

in the enclosed

inspection

report.

Within these

areas,

the inspection consisted of selective

examina-

tions of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and

observations

by the inspectors.

Based

on the results of this inspection, it appears- that certain of your

activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements,

as set

forth in the enclosed

Notice of Violation (Notice) .

One violation consists of

several

examples of personnel

not following procedures.

Although these

examples

represented

administrative deficiencies,

we are concerned that

procedure

adherence

problems continue to occur

and that your corrective

actions for similar problems identi fied by the

NRC during the past

two years

have not been effective in preventing their recurrence';

As indicated in your

recent

response

to SALP Report No. 93-04, additional

management

attention in

this area

appears

warranted.

The second violation concerns

not maintaining

the plant's

drawings current with respect

to Thermolag configurations.

This

violation is significant because it uncovered

a potential deficiency in your

response

to

NRC Generic Letter 92-08, in that you would have failed to perform

cabling ampaci ty derating calculations for all the cabling protected

by

Thermolag

as previously committed.

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

Notice, including your proposed corrective actions

and the results of future

inspection,

the

NRC will determine

whether further

NRC enforcement

action is

930624002i

930609

PDR

ADOCK 05000397

PDR

/<Ir8l

. necessary

to ensure

compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of 'this letter, the enclosure,

and

your response will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

The response

directed

by this letter and the accompanying

Notice are not

subject to the clearance

procedures

of the Office of Management

and Budget

as

required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980,

Pub.

L.96-511.

Should you have

any questions

concerning this inspection,

we will be pleased

to discuss

them with you.
