Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that certain of your activi-
ties were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set forth
in the Notice of Violatio , enclosed herewith as Appendix A.
These items of
noncompliance have been categorized into the levels as described in our corres-
ponderce 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 thirty (30) days of your receipt of this notice, a written state-
ment 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. fur,ther items of noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance
will'be achieved.

during a previous inspection of your licensed activities on Unit 1 and was
documented in the enclosure to our letter datec' March 24, 1980. Your letter to
this office dated April 28, 1980 stated:

Schneider Inspection Plan S520-1, Rev. O, " Surveillance of House-
keeping, Material Storage and Weld Wire Control," was issued April 18,
1980. This plan provides for weekly surveillance of storage areas for
cleanliness, piping end caps in place, use of dunnage, and adequate
drainage.
The plan also provides for weekly surveillance of work
areas for environmental controls, weld electrode control, cleanliness,
and piping end caps in place. Surveillance reports will be submitted
to the Schneider QA Manager for review.
From our October 6 - November 2,1980 inspection it appears that the stated
corrective actions were not effective since this item has recurred.
Recurrent
and uncorrected items of noncompliance are given additional weight in the con-
sideration and selection of appropriate enforcement action.
Therefore, in your
response to this letter, you should give particular attention to those actions
taken or planned to ensure that identified items of noncompliance will be com-
pletely corrected and will not recur.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title
10, Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and the enclosures will
be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.
If this report contains any infor-
mation that you (or your contractor) believe to be proprietary, it is necessary
that you make a written application within 20 days to this office to withhold
such information from public disclosure. Any such application must be accompanied
~
by an affidavit executed by the owner of the information, which identifies the
,
document or part sought to be withheld, and which ;ontains a statement of reasons
which addresses with specificity the items which will be considered by the
Commission as listed in subparagraph (b) (4) of Section 2.790. The information
-
sought to be withheld shall be incorporated as far as possible into a separate
part of the affidavit.
If we do not hear from you in this regard within the
specified period, the report will be placed in the Public Document Room.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to
discuss them with you.
Sincerely,
_
