REPORT

This refers to the inspection

conducted

by C. A. Patterson

of this office on

May 15,

1993 - June

18,

1993.

The inspection

included

a review of activities

authorized for your Browns Ferry facility.

At the conclusion of the inspec-

tion, 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.

Within

these

areas,

the inspection consisted of selective

examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observation-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 concerning failure to follow procedure

fo'r a safety

system valve

We are concerned

about the violation because

of the

potential for misalignment of system

components for a system in standby

readiness.

Certain activities appear to deviate

from commitments to the

NRC.

The

deviation

and elements

to be included in your response

'are described

in the

enclosed

Notice of Deviation.

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 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.

In accordance

with 10

CFR 2.790 of the

NRC's "Rules of Practice",

a copy of

this letter and its enclosures will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.
