Gentlemen:

This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Mr. P. C. Lovendale

of this office on March 15-18, 1982, of activities at Big Rock Point Nuclear

Plant authorized by NRC Operating License No. DPR-6 and to the discussion of

our findings with Mr. C. 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 in-

terviews 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. We are concerned that these noncompliances

reflect procedural adherence, training, and management weaknesses in your

radiation protection program which are similar to weaknesses identified and

communicated to you during the Health Physics Appraisal.

In your response,

please describe why your proposed corrective actions are expected to be more

successful in preventing future similar noncompliances than the corrective

actions specified in your July 18, 1980 letter.

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 this report contains any information

that you (or your contractors) believe to be exempt from disclosure under

10 CFR 9.5(a)(4), it is necessary that you (a) notify this office by tele-

phone within ten (10) 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.

If your receipt of this letter has been

delayed such that less than seven (7) days are available for your review,

please notify this office promptly so that a new due date may be estab-

lished. Consistent with Section 2.790(b)(1), 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 which are the bases for the

claim 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.

The responses directed by this letter (and the accompanying Notice) are

not subject to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and

Budget as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-511.

We will gladly discuss any questions you have concerning this inspection.

Sincerely,

C. E. Norelius, Director

Division of Engineering and

Technical Programs
