SUBJECT:

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-280/87-21 AND 50-281/87-21)

This

confirms the conversation

between

T. Shaub

of your staff,

and

R. P. Croteau of my staff, on September 4, 1987, concerning an enforcement

conference to be conducted at the NRC Region II Office on September 24, 1987,

at 2:00 p.m.

We requested this meeting to discuss the failure to perform a

safety evaluation for a condition which appears to involve an unreviewed safety

question and the failure to perform a Technical Specification-required

surveillance test.

Enclosure 3 is a proposed meeting agenda identifying

specific issues of concern.

This also refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

inspection

conducted by W.

E. Holland on July 5 -

August 29, 1987.

The inspection

included a review of activities authorized for your Surry 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

these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures

and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of

activities in progress.

Two of the violations in the enclosed report are being considered for escalated

enforcement action.

Accordingly, no Notice of Violation is being issued at

this time for these two violations and no response is required.

However,

please be advised that the characterization of these two violations described

in the enclosed Inspection Report may change as a result of further NRC review.

You

wi 11

be advised by separate correspondence of the results of our

deliberations on these matters.

In addition, one violation was identified which is not being considered for

escalated enforcement.

This violation references pertinent requirements

and elements to be included in your response is described in the enclosed

Notice of Violation.
