NRC INSPECTION

REPORT

NOS. 50-528/91-09,

50-529/91-09

AND

50"530/91"09

This letter refers to the inspection conducted

by Mr.

W. TenBrook and Hr. L.

C.

Carson of this office on March 4-8, 1991.

The inspection included

a review

of activities authorized for Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station,

Units One,

Two and Three.

At the conclusion of the inspection,

the findings were

discussed

with those

members of your staff identified in the enclosed

report.

Areas

examined during this inspection are described in the report.

Within

these

areas,

the inspection consisted of selective

examinations

of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observation of work

activities.

Based

on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of NRC requirements.

One violation was not cited because

the criteria of Section V.A of the Enforcement Policy were satisfied.

The

second violation is described in the enclosed

Notice of Violation.

The second

violation is of concern

because

containers of radioactive material

were

offered for transport without clearly identifying the contents

in the

hazardous

material manifest/shipping

paper, potentially preventing rapid

identification of package

contents in the event of difficulties during

transportation.

Although 10 CFR 2.201 requires

you to submit a written statement

of,

explanation,

we note that this violation has

been corrected.

Your corrective

actions

were reviewed during this inspection

and were found to be

satisfactory.

Therefore,

no response

with respect to this matter is required.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of this letter and the enclosures

will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.
