Gentlemen:
This refers
to the inspection
conducted
by P. J. Kellogg of this office on
March 12-16 and 19-21,
1979, of activities authorized'by
hRG-License
Nos.
and DPR-41 for the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 facility, and to the discussion of
our findings held with H. E. Yaeger,
Plant
Manager
and J. E. Vessley,
Manager
Quality Assurance at the conclusion of the inspection.
Areas
examined
during the
inspection
and
our findings
are
discussed
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 inspectors.
Two (2) new unresolved
items resulted
from this inspection
and are discussed
in
the enclosed report.
These items will be examined during subsequent
inspections.
During this inspection it was
found that certain activities under your license
appear to be in noncompliance with NRC requirements.
These
items
and references
to pertinent requirements
are listed in the Notice of Violation enclosed herewith
as Appendix A.
This notice is sent to you pursuant to the provisions of Section
2.201 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regula-
tions.
Section
2.201
requires
you to submit to this office, within 20 days of
your receipt of this notice,
a written statement
or explanation in reply including:
(1) corrective steps
which have been taken by you and the results
achieved;
(2)
corrective steps
which will be taken to avoid further noncompliance;
and (3) the
date
when full compliance will be achieved.
With regard to item numbers H.l and
H.2, corrective actions to prevent recurrence
were completed prior to conclusion
of this inspection; therefore,
a reply is not requested for these items.
In addition to the need for corrective action regarding these specific items of
noncompliance,
we are concerned
about the implementation of your quality assurance-
program that permitted their occurrence.
We are particularly concerned
about
the
thoroughness
of the
audits
conducted
in the
areas
of plant operations,
procedural
compliance
and health physics.
These
areas
have been
the. subject of
several previous noncompliances
issued by the Office of -Inspection and Enforcement.
The audits
conducted
by your Quality Assurance staff have failed to disclose
similar problems.
Consequently,
in your reply, you should describe in particular
those actions taken or planned to improve the effectiveness of your quality assurance
program.
