Dear Mr. DelGeorge:
This refers to the inspection conducted by D. Hills and C. Phillips of this
office, and by J. Roman of the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety, on
February 8 through March 15, 1993. The inspection included a review of
authorized activities for your LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2,
facility. At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed
with those members of your staff identified in the enclosed report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
'
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
t
activities in progress.
During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in violation
of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of Violation
(Notice). These violations are of concern as one indicated some continuing
inattention to detail problems regarding maintenance personnel and the other
reflected insufficient emphasis on certain radiation monitoring
instrumentation.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
4
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
Other activities were also identified to be in violation of NRC requirements.
,
However, as described in the enclosed inspection report, this violation will
not be subject to enforcement action because the criteria specified in
Section VII.B of the " General Statement of Policy and Procedures for NRC
_j
Enforcement Actions," (Enforcement Policy,10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1993))
were satisfied.
