,

These weaknesses were in the areas of work reviews, work instructions, design

-basis. knowledge, and shift turnovers. The inspection also identified that the

-Shift Supervisor and the Assistant Shift' Supervisor spend a large portion of

their on-shift time initiating, reviewing and authorizing maintenance

requests.. We understand that you are evaluating changes to that practice. We

request that your response to the enclosed Notice of Violation include your

.

'

assessment of these concerns and any needed actions to address the concerns.

Our inspection findings continue to

.inoicate that strong management attention and initiatives are needed to

improveTrojanperformance.
