Attention:

Mr. E. E. Van Brunt Jr.,

Executive Vice President

Gentlemen:

Subject:

NRC Inspection of Palo Verde Units

1 and 2.

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Messrs.

R.

Zimmerman,

G.

Fiorelli, and

C. Bosted of this office on March ll through April 28,

1985

of activities authorized by NRC License No. NPF-34 and

NRC Construction

Permit Number

CPPR

142 and to the discussion of our findings held with

yourself and other members of your 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

examinations

of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observations

by the inspector.

Based

on the results of this inspection, it appears

that several of,your

activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements,

as set forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed

herewith as Appendix A.

You are required to respond to this letter and in preparing your

response,

you should follow the instructions in Appendix A.

We consider the enclosed violations,

coupled with your identification of

two recently missed

surveillance tests,

to be an early indicator that

increased effort may be warranted to ensure that compliance with

Technical Specification requirements is achieved

and maintained

as you

approach

power operation.

We believe you should focus the necessary

attention to ensure your staff's implementation of plant administrative

and operational control systems

are effective in precluding future

Technical Specification violations.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of this letter and the

enclosure will be placed in the

NRC Public Document Room.
