Gentlemen:
Subject:
Combined Inspection 50-317/81-06; 50-318/81-06
This refers to the routine inspection conducted by Mr. J. J. Kottan of this
office on February 17-20, 1981 at Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and
2, Lusby, Maryland of activities authorized by NRC License Nos. DPR-53 and OPR-
69 and to the discussions of our findings held by Mr. Kottan with Mr. L. Russell
and others of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
Areas examined during this inspection are described in the Office of Inspection
and Enforcement Inspection Report which is enclosed with this ',etter.
Within
these ::reas, th.e inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the
inspector.
In addition, our Mobile Laboratory was also brought to your site and,used by the
inspector to make certain independent measurements.
The basic. purpose of these
independent measurements is to verify your capability for analyzing radioactive
affluents, and to achieve and maintain comparable methods of analyses between
your facility and the NRC.
The complete data from these measurements will be
reported in a subsequent Inspection Report.
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 Violation, e.. closed herewith as Appendix A.
These items of ncncom-
pliance have been categorized into the levels described in the Federal Register
Notice (45 FR 66754) dated October 7, 1980. You are required to respond to this
letter and in preparing your response, you should follow the instructions in
Appendix A.
In addition to the need for corrective action regarding these
specific items of noncompliance, we are concerned about the implementation of
your management control systems that permitted the occurrence / recurrence of non-
compliance resulting from failure to follow procedures. Consequently, in your
reply, you should describe in particular, those actions taken or planned to
improve the effectiveness of your management control systems.

19 MAY 1981 -
Item 4 in the Notice of Violation enclosed with this letter was identified
during previous inspections of your licensed activities on January 16-19, 1979
and April 10-13, 1978, and was' documented in the enclosures to our letters dated
February 5, 1979 and May 5, 1978, respectively. Your letters to this office
dated February 27, 1979 and May 26, 1978 stated that updated gasenus effluent
release data would be transmitted on a timely basis, and that the 12-month
gaseous effluent release rate calculations would be completed within one month
of any 12-month period.
From our February 17-20, 1981 inspecticn, 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 consideration 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 completely corrected and will not recur.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of this
letter and the enclosures will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.
If
this report contains any information that you (or your contractors) believe to
be exempt from disclosure under 10 CFR 9.5(a)(4), it is necessary that you (a)
notify this office by telephone within ten (10) days from the date of this
letter of your intention to file a request for withholding; and (b) submit
within 25 days from the date of this letter a written application to this office
to withhold such information. Consistent with section 2.790(b)(1), 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 contains a full statement of the reasons on the basis which it is claimed
I
that the information should be withheld from public disclosure. This section
further requires the statement to address with specificity the considerations
listed in 10 CFR 2.790(b)(4). 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 periods noted above, the
report will be placed in the Public Document Room. The telephone notification
of your intent to request withholding, or any request for an extension of the 10
day period which you believe necessary, should be made to the Supervisor, Files,
,
Mail and Records, USNRC Region I, at (215) 337-5223.
'
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased
'
to discuss them with you.
