Mr. Edward Hines

Assistant Vice President

and Manager Quality

Assurance

2000 Second Avenue

Detroit, MI 48226

Gentlemen:

This refers to the investigation conducted by Messers F. C. Hawkins,

R. J. Marsh, H. S. Phillips, and H. M. Wescott of this office on February 15

- March 2, 1979, of activites at Enrico Fermi 2 authorized by NRC Construction

Permit No. CPPR-87 and to the discussion of our findings with Messrs.

T. A. Allessi. R. W. Barr, W. Fahrner, W. Everett and H. A. Walker, and

others of the Enrico Fermi 2 project staff at the conclusion of the

investigation.

The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined

during the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a

selective examination of procedures and representative records, observations,

and interviews with personnel.

Relative to the interviews conducted, friction and incidents between QC

inspectors and tradesmen at Wismer and Becker Contracting Engineers were

found to be a potential QA problem.

Licensee management should assure

that such incidents do not impede the identification of quality problems.

During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in

noncompliance with NRC requirements, as described in the enclosed Appendix A.

This notice is sent to you pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.201 of

the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations.

Section 2.201 requires you to submit to this office within thirty days of

your receipt of this notice a written statement or explanation in reply,

including for each item of noncompliance: (1) corrective action taken and

the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further

noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
