Dear Hr. Fitzpatrick:

SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION (NRC'NSPECTION

REPORTS

NO. 50-315/93015(DRS);

NO. 50-316/93015(DRS))

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by Hr. H. A. Walker and others of this

office June 7-18,

1993.

The inspection

included

a review of activities

authorized for your Donald

C.

Cook Nuclear Plant facility.

At the conclusion

of the inspection,

the findings were discussed

with those

members of your

staff identified in the enclosed

report.

Areas examined during the inspection

are identified in the report.

The

purpose of the inspection

was to determine whether activities authorized

by

the license

were conducted

safely

and in accordance

with NRC requirements.

The

inspection

included

an assessment

of the quality and effectiveness

of

maintenance activities.

Within these

areas,

the inspection, consisted

of

selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews

with personnel,

and observations

of activities in progress.

Based

on the results of this inspection,

certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of NRC requirements,

as specified in the enclosed

Notice of

Violation (Notice).

The violations are of concern

because

of the possible

impact of delayed preventive maintenance activities

and inadequate

safe

shutdown lighting on the operation of plant equipment.

The document control

problem is of significance

because

the number of procedures

involved provided

a substantial

risk that outdated

procedures

would be used to control safety

related

maintenance

activities.

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

inspections,

the

NRC will determine

whether further

NRC enforcement

action is

necessary

to ensure

compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
