This refers
to the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission
(NRC) inspection
conducted
by
R.
E. Weddington
on
September
8-12,
1986.
The inspection
included
a revi.ew of
activities authorized for your Browns Ferry facility.
At the conclusion of the
inspection,
the
findings
were
discussed
with those
members
of your staff
identified in the enclosed
inspection report.
Areas
examined
during the inspection
are identified in the report.
Within thes'e
areas,
the
inspection
consisted
of selective
examinations
of procedures
and
representative
records,
interviews with personnel,
and observation of activities
in progress.
The inspection findings indicate that certain activities appeared
to violate
NRC
requirements.
The violation, references
to pertinent requirements,
and elements
to
be
included
in your
response
are
described
in the
enclosed
Notice of
Violation.
As
we
discussed
in
a
telephone
conversation
on
October 6,
1986,
between
Mr. F. Cantrell of this office and Mr. R. L. Lewis, Plant Manager,
Browns Ferry,
we
are
concerned
about
your
continued
poor
performance
in the
area
of
transportation
of radioactive material.
Since January
1984, eight violations of
NRC requirements
in this
area
have
been identified.
The
NRC considers
this
number of problems
to
be
excessive
and indicative of inadequate
management
attention
to this
area.
Consequently,
your response
should
describe
those
particular actions. taken or planned to improve the effectiveness
of your program
and your management
controls in this area.
In accordance
with Section 2.790
of the
NRC's
"Rules of Practice,"
Part 2,
Title 10,
Code of Federal
Regulations,
a copy of this letter and its enclosures
will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
