Gentlemen:

Subject:

Inspection 50-336/78-37

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. W. Raymond of this office

on December 20-22, 1978, at Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Unit 2,

Waterford, Contacticut, of activities authorized by NRC License No. DPR-

65 and to the discussions of our findings held by Mr. Raymond with

Messrs. J. Opeka and E. Farrell of your staff at the conclusion of the

inspection.

Areas examined during this inspection are described in the Office of

Inspection and Enforcement Inspection Report which is enclosed with this

letter. Within thesa areas, the inspection consisted of selective

examinations of procedures and representative records, interviews with

personnel, and observations by the inspector.

Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that one of your

activities was not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements,

as set forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix

A.

This item of noncompliance has been categorized into the levels as

described in our correspondence to you dated December 31, 1974.

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 20 days of

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

including:

(1) corrective steps which have been taken by you and the

results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid

further items of noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance

will be achieved.

We note that this item of noncompliance was corrected

prior to the completion of our inspection, and therefore, in your response

you need only address the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid

further items of noncompliance.
