Reference:
Inspection 50-245/79-25 and 50-336/79-27
Dear Sir:
In reference to your letter received on January 17,1980, this report is submitted pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.201 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations.
1.
Apparent Item of Non-Capliance Technical Specifications Section 6.8.1 states in part, that:
" Written procedures shall be established, implemented and maintained covering... Fire Protection Program Implementation."
Administrative Control Procedure ACP-QA-4.01, " Plant Housekeeping,"
Revision 7, dated March 16, 1979, Attachment 1 states in part:
"All personnel are to refrain fra smoking within the following areas... Control Room (within Main Control Board)...;" paragraph 6.4 states in part:
...each plant person is required to clear the work or activity area of debris...before the work or activity is terminated...The Building Services Department performs cleaning and trash removal services..."
1 Contrary to the above, on November 7,1979 an open can of cabustible debris was observed in the Unit 1 Control Room, and an open can of cabustible debris was observed in the Unit l
2 D.C. Switchgear Room. Evidence of smoking was observed in the Unit 1 Control Room Main Control Board.

Response
This apparent item of non-compliance involved poor housekeeping in the Unit 1 Control Room and Unit 2 D. C. Switchgear Room.
The open trash can in Unit 1 Control was in the kitchen area and it has been replaced with a covered trash can.
Additionally, the Shift Supervisors were reminded of their responsibilities to maintain housekeeping in the Control Room per ACP-QA-4.01.
The evidence of smoking inside the Main Control Boards is felt to be as' a result of the way the area was posted as a no smoking area. The signs were well within the Control Board area such that af ter contractor personnel entered the area, they saw the signs and extinguished their cigarettes on the
' floor. New no smoking signs were posted at the entryways to this area and Shift Supervisors were reminded to maintain better control of smoking per ACP-QA-4.01.
The open trash can in the Unit 2, D.C. Switchgear Room was a result of recent work in the area. The trash can was emptied and the Shift Supervisors / Operators were reminded to maintain housekeeping per ACP-QA-4.01.
Very truly yours, NORTHEAST NUCLEAR ENERGY COMPANY f
