NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-528/97-06; 50-529/97-06'0-530/97-06
AND
Dear Mr. Levine:
An.NRC inspection was conducted May 4 through June 14, 1997, at your Palo Verde
Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1, 2, and 3 reactor facilities. The enclosed report
presents the scope and results of that inspection.
During the 6-week period covered by this inspection, your conduct of activities at the Palo
Verde facility was generally characterized
by safety conscious operations,
sound
engineering
and maintenance
practices,
and careful radiological controls; however,
a
violation of NRC requirements
occurred.
The violation involved three examples of
operations personnel failing to follow administrative requirements.
The violation is cited in the enclosed
Notice of Violation (Notice) and the circumstances
surrounding the violation are described
in detail in the enclosed report.
The NRC has
concluded that information regarding the reason for the violation, the corrective actions
taken and planned to correct the violation and prevent recurrence
are already adequately
addressed
on the docket in the enclosed inspection report.
Therefore, you are not required
to respond to this letter unless the description therein does not accurately reflect your
corrective actions or your position.
In that case, or if you choose to provide additional
information, you should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed
Notice.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss
them with you.
Sincerely,
Thomas
