INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT

NOS. 50-250/97-06

and 50-251/97-06

AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear

Mr. Plunkett:

On June

28,

1997, the

NRC completed

a safety inspection at your Turkey Point

Units 3

8 4 reactor

taci lities.

The enclosed

integrated report presents

the

results of that inspection.

During the period covered

by this inspection,

your conduct of activities at

the Turkey Point facilities was generally characterized

by safety-conscious

operations,

sound engineering

and maintenance

practices,

and good plant

support activities.

We are concerned,

however,

about

a violation of NRC

requirements

that was identified.

NRC inspectors identified that inadequate

surveys of potentially radioactive materia

resulted in two examples

where

material

was improperly released

from the site.

The violation is cited in the enclosed

Notice of Violation, and the

circumstances

sur rounding the violation is described

in detail in the enclosed

report.

Please

note that you are required to respond to this letter

and

should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed

Notice when preparing

your response.

The

NRC will use your response,

in part, to determine whether

further

enforcement

action is necessary

to ensure

compliance with regulatory

requirements.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790 ot the NRC's "Rules of Practi.ce."

a copy of

this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room

(PDR).

Sincerely.

Orig signed
