Gentlemen:

This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by G. C. Wright

and M. E. Parker of this office on June 13 - July 10, 1981, of activities

at the Big Rock Point Station authorized by NRC Operating License

No. DPR-06 and to the discussion of our findings with Mr. C. J. Hartman

at the conclusion of the inspection.

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.

The NRC concern in the areas of lack of adequate posting of radiation

areas and the lack of locks or control devices for high radiation areas is

increasing. Four such instances have been identified since March, 1980.

In your response to this letter please address the corrective actions

implemented to resolve these problem areas.

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

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

A

written response, submitted under oath or affirmation, is required.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy

of this letter, the enclosures, and your response to this letter will be

placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.

If the enclosures contain any

information that you or your contractors believe to be exempt from dis-

closure under 10 CFR 9.5(a)(4), it is necessary that you (a) notify this

affice by telephone within seven (7) days from the date of this letter of

your intention to file a request for withholding; and (b) submit within

twenty-five (25) days from the date of this letter a written application

to this office to withhold such information. Section 2.790(b)(1) requires

that 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 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, a copy of this

letter, the enclosures, and your response to this letter will be placed

in the Public Document Room.
