Inspectio'1 80-13

This refers to the special inspection conducted by Mr. W. Barley of our TMI

Program Office staff July 18-Aagust 5,1980 at Three Mile Island Nuclear

License No. DPR-73 and to the discussions of our findings held by Mr.

Barley with Mr. R. Arnold and other staff members 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 letter.

Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of

procedures and representative racords, interviews with personnel, and

observations by the inspector.

Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that certain of your

activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as

set forth in the Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.

'

These items of non:ompliance have been categorized into the levels as

described ir our correspondence to you dated December 31, 1974. With

respect to these items of noncompliance, we conducted a Health Physics

i

Evaluation during the period July 28 to August 8, 1980, and matters dealing

'

with the overall management of these areas of noncompliance were identified

as weaknesses.

In your responses dated December 1G and 30, 1980 and February,

1980 (LTLO24) to the Health Physics Evaluation, you identified actions that

haa been taken to strengthen those weaknesses.

These corrective actions

were reviewed during an inspection conducted during the period April 13 to

24, 1981 and found to be acceptable.

Therefore, no further response to

this letter is required.

In accorcance 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.

believe to be exempt from disclosure under 10 CFR 9.5(c)(4), it is necessary

that you (a) notify this office by telephone within ten (10) days from the

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.
