Docket No. 50-237

Docket No. 50-249

Commonwealth Edison Company

ATTN:

Mr. Cordell Reed

Vice President

Post Office Box 767

Chicago, IL 60690

Gentlemen:

This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Messrs. T. M. Tongue,

S. Stasek, and L. Reyes of this office during the period of March 15 through

May 20, 1983, of activities at Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 1, 2 and 3,

authorized by NRC Operating Licenses No. DPR-02, No. DPR-19 and DPR-25 and to

the discussion of our findings with Mr. Scott at the conclusion of the in-

spection.

The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during

the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective

examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and

interviews with personnel.

During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in non-

compliance with NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Appendix.

A written response is required.

It is noted that the item of noncompliance identified in Appendix A is

within the maintenance activities at Dresden.

In the near future, we plan

to meet with you and your staff, to discuss this and other discrepencies

identified recently in maintenance work at Dresden. We will be contacting

you with further details as they become available.

A concern regarding ALARA practices was identified during this inspection

in that certain operations personnel receive additional unnecessary radiation

,

exposure in the process of placing multiple out-of-service tags on systems

!

and components.

It is our understanding that this system has evolved from

a union / management agreement. We have expressed concern in the past (refer-

ence SALP II and III Reports) about the potential for union / management agree-

ments to impact on NRC related activities.

In your response to this letter,

please provide us with your position on this matter, and a description of

any appropriate actions you plan to take.
