Subject:

Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 ,

Docket Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 1- Payment of Civil Monetary Penalty j By letter: dated April 12, 1990, the NRC issued an order imposing a civil monetary penalty of $37,500.00 for-Catawba Nuclear Station. The penalty was issued for failure to take adequate corrective action following the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (CAPT) surveillance test failures of' July 31, 1989.

I' appreciate the additional opportunity provided by:the NRC for me to discuss this violation. While~I am pleased the NRC partially mitigated the proposed civil monetary penalty of $50,000.00, I still believe the penalty should have y been fully mitigated.

Enclosed is a check in the amount of $37,500.00.

Veryjtruly-yours, O M bG [
