INTEGRATED INSPECTION

REPORT 50-315/316-95013 (DRP)

AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION-

Dear Mr. Fitzpatrick:

This refers to the routine safety inspection

conducted

by Messrs.

B. Bartlett,

D. Hartland,

C. Orsini,

R. Paul,

B. Fuller,

and

N. Shah of this office from

December

5,

1995,

through January

16,

1996.

The inspection

included

a review

of activities at your Donald C.

Cook Nuclear Plant,

Units

1 and 2.

At the conclusion of the inspection,

the findings were discussed

with those

members of your staff identified in the enclosed report.

Based

on the results of this inspection,

the

NRC has determined that two

violations of NRC requirements

occurred.

The violations are cited in the

enclosed

Notice of Violation (Notice)

and the circumstances'surrounding

them

are described

in detail in the subject inspection report.

The violations are

of concern

because

in one case

a Technical Specification requirement for. the

diesel

generators

was not properly implemented,

and in the other case there

was

a failure to test safety-related

equipment

under conditions

assumed

in

design basis

documents.

We are concerned

that during this inspection there were several

issues

identified which pertained to implementation of technical specification

requirements

in the area of surveillance testing.

There were also continuing

performance

issues

identified in the work control process,

two of which

pertained

to post maintenance

testing.

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.

Your response

may reference

or

include previous docketed

correspondence, if the correspondence

Areas examined during the inspection

Within

these

areas,

the inspection consisted of,a selective

and representative

during the inspection period.

Notice, including your -proposed corrective actions

and the results of future

inspections,

the

NRC enforcement

action is

necessary
