Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspecfion conducted by D. M. Montgomery of this office on

March 14-15, 1979, of a'ctivities authorized by NRC License Nos. DPR-38,

of our findings held with J. M. Davis at the conclusion of the inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection and our findings are discussed in the

enclosed inspection report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of

selective examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews

with personnel, and observations by the inspectors.

Two new unresolved items resulted from this insp : tion and are discussed in

the enclosed report. These items will be examined during subsequent inspec-

tions.

During the inspection, it was found that certain activities under your

license appear to be in noncompliance with NRC requirements. This item and

references to pertinent requirements are listed in the Notice of Violation

office, within 20 days of your receipt of this notice, a written statement or

explanation in reply including:

achieved.

During the inspection it was found that certain activities under your license

appear to deviate from generally accepted industry practices. This item is

identified in the Notice of Deviation enclosed herewith as Appendix B.

Please

provide us in writing within 20 days of your receipt of this letter your com-

ments including a description of corrective actions that have been or will be
