Our response to the specific infraction is attached.
We have determined that no proprietary information is contained in the reports.

Very truly yours,

This is an infraction.
A similar item was brought to your attention in our letter dated September 19, 1978.
Response
A Licensee Event Report (LER) is written as a result of a reportable deviation occurring at the station.
A rough draft of the final report is prepared and reviewed by the Station Nuclear Safety and Operating Committee and any comments are incorporated into the report.
The report is then forwarded to the Cor-porate office for further review and submittal to the NRC.
Pursuant to Section 2.201 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice" Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, the following information is submitted.
1.
Corrective steps taken and results achieved:
A visual tracking system under the control of a report preparation group was established.
This system has shown that at certain times the number of LERs to be prepared exceeds the responsible individual's capability.
Reports received for processing at the system level have been elevated in priority status for both preparation and review.
Addi tional clerical personnel have been added to the existing staf f to aet ter facilitate the Lacorporation of final report revisions.

Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further non-compliance:
An administrative procedure will be developed to clearly state or schedule for preparation and will provide guidelines on handling these periods of time when an abnormally large number of LER's are due.
3.
Date when full compliance will be achieved:
Full compliance will be achieved by March 15, 1980.
