Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. Pcoeroy and Tripp,
of our Regulatory Oparations Headquarters office, at the Comunonwealth
Edison Company offices in Chicago, Illinois, and to discussions of our
findings with Mr. W. J. Showski and others of your staff at the con-
clusion of the inspection. The inspection was an examination of
activities related to the procurement of fuel for several of your
nuclear power plants, including a comparison of these activities with
the Comunission's Quality Assurance Criteria. The inspection consisted
of selective examinations of procedures and representative records,
-
,
interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspectors.
Based on the results of the inspection, it appears that certain of
your activities are in violation of AEC requirements. These activities
are identified ia the Enclosure to this letter and are discussed in the
enclosed inspection report.
This letter is a notice of violation and is sent to you pursuant to
the provisions of Section 2.201 of the AEC's " Rules of Practice,"
Part 2, Title 10. Code of Federal Regulations. Section 2.201 requires
you to submit to this office, within twenty (20) c'.ays of the date
of this letter, a written statement or 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
violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
In addition to the need for corrective action regarding these specific
l
deficiencies, we are concerned about the implementation of your
i
quality assurance program which permitted these deficiencies to occur.
Consequently, in your reply, you should describe, in particular, those
actions taken or planned to inprove the effectiveness of your quality
assurance programm for procurement of nuclear fael.
