Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. M. W. Dickerson and

of the findings with members of your staff at the conclusion of the

Areas examined during this inspection are described in our report, which

is enclosed with this letter. Within these areas, the inspection con-

sisted of selective examination of procedures and representative records,

interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspectors.

During this inspection it was found that certain of your activities were

not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set forth in

the Notice of Violation enclosed herewith as Enclosure (1). This notice

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

However, since corrective action was completed during the inspection, no

response to i.he Notice of Violation is required.

In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2,

Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and the

enclosed inspection report will be placed in the NRC's Public Document
