Docket No. 50-330

Consumers Power Company

ATTN:

Mr. Stephen H. Howell

Vice President

1945 West Parnali Road

Jackson, MI 49201

Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. E. J. Gallagher of this

office on September 11-14, 1979, of activities at the Midland Nuclear

Power Plant construction site authorized by NRC Construction Permits

No. CPPR-81 and No. CPPR-82 and to the discussion of our findings with

Mr. B. J. Marguglio and others of your staff, and others of the Midland

site staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

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, obser-

vations, and interviews with personnel.

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.

Based on our telephone discussion with you on September 21, 1979, it is our

understanding that the personnel performing inspections of the prestressing

system whose qualifications we consider do not meet the provisions of Regu-

latory Guide 1.58 and ANSI N45.2.6 have been relieved from such duties until

further evaluation of the requirements and further discussion with the

Region III office. Please include in your response your plans to reconfirm

the qualifications of other personnel performing quality control inspections

on the Midland project.
