SUBJECT'OTICE

OF VIOLATION

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT

NO. 50-397/93-31)

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Hessrs.

R.

C. Barr,

D. L. Proulx,

K. E. Johnston,

D.

E. Corporandy,

and H.

P.

Payne of this'office on August

3

through September

6,

1993, of activities authorized

by

NRC Operating

License

No. NPF-21,

and to the discussions

of findings held by the inspectors

with Hr.

J. Swailes

and other members of the Supply System staff at'he

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).

The cited violation

involved two examples of personnel

not following procedures.

In the first

example,

craftsmen did not stop to obtain

an approved deviation for a

procedure that could not be strictly followed,

and in the second

example,

craftsmen did not initiate a problem evaluation request

(PER) after observing

the incorrect assembly of a valve.

In addition, five non-cited violations

were noted.

These involved two instances

of inadequate

post-maintenance

testing,

two instances

of procedure

nonadherence

caused

by the lack of self-

checking

by I&C technicians,

and

an inadequate

surveillance

procedure.

In addition, this inspection identified three instances

in which it appeared

that Licensee

Event Reports

(LERs) did not contain

a full and clear discussion

of the events,

or when

a documented

analysis

could not be made available to

the inspector to support assertions

made in the

LERs.

We will continue our

reviews of these

LERs following your further review.

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

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 Hanagement

L.96-511.

Should you have

any questions

concerning this inspection,

we will be pleased

to.discuss

them with you.
