SUBJECT:

NRC

INSPECTION

REPORT 50-397/96-06

AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear Mr. Parrish:

On May 11,

1996,

the

NRC completed

an inspection

at your Washington Nuclear

Project-2 facility.

The enclosed

report presents

the results of that

inspection.

During the 6-week period covered

by this inspection period, your conduct of

activities at the Washington Nuclear Project-2 facility was generally

characterized

by effective

command

and control

by operations,

sound

engineering

and maintenance

practices,

and careful radiological

work controls.

We are concerned,

however,

about

one violation with two examples of NRC

requirements

that were identified concerning ineffective corrective actions.

This violation is cited in the enclosed

Notice of Violation, and the

circumstances

surrounding it are described

in detail

in the enclosed

report.

No response

for the violation is required.

The violation involved two instances

where planned corrective actions

from a

previous violation and licensee

event report were not effectively implemented,

resulting

in repeat

occurrences

of the initial problems.

In the first

instance,

you failed to properly verify that all the moisture separator

shroud

hold down bolts were

removed before attempting

to lift the shroud.

In the

second

instance,

you failed to adequately

monitor standby service water room

cooler fouling and allowed degradation

below established

limits.

We also

noted

two further examples of a violation cited in

NRC Inspection

Report 50-

397/96-02 involving weaknesses

in instructions

and procedures

for work on the

diesel

generator

heating, ventilation,

and air conditioning dampers.

We note

that these further examples

were identified at the

same

time as the violation

in

NRC Inspection

Report 50-397/96-02

and that you have initiated actions to

address

these

examples.

Nevertheless,

these

examples

demonstrate

the

need for

your continued attention with the control of maintenance activities.
