Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. J. R. Creed and

G. L. Pirtle of this office on March 31 - April 4,1980, of activities at

Point Beach Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2 authorized by NRC Operating Li-

censes No. DPR-24 and No. DPR-27 and to the discussion of our findings with

Messrs. G. A. Reed and R. Krukowski 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, observations, and in-

terviews with personnel.

During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in non-

compliance with NRC requirements, as described in the enclosed Appendix A.

As identified in Appendix A, one of the items of noncompliance was repeat

in nature and although corrective action was initiated, a response to that

item is necessary.

In addition, to the items of noncompliance, our inspection revealed an un-

resolved item and an item of concern. The unresolved item will be referred

to NRC Headquarters for resolution. We feel that the item of concern re-

quires your immediate attention. Although not representing noncompliance

with specific commitments, we request that you include with your response

to the identified items of noncompliance a description of the action you

intend to take to address our concern and the situation identified in para-

,

graph 5 of the inspection report.

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 Regula-

tions. Section 2.201 requires you to submit to this office within twenty

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.

tion regarding the noncompliance identified in the enclosure and your re-
