Dear Mr. Kingsley:

the

findings were discussed

with those

members of your staff identified in the

enclosed

report.

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,

the

NRC has determined that

a

violation of NRC requirements

occurred.

surrounding it are

described

in detail in the subject inspection report.

the required

response.

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, its enclosures,

and your response will be placed in the

NRC

Public Document

Room (PDR).

To the extent possible,

your response
