This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Mr. H. Nicholas of
this office on March 23-26, 1982 at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, Unit
1, Salem Township, Pennsylvania of activities authorized by NRC License No.
CPPR-101 and to the discussions of our findings neld by Mr. Nicholas with Mr. H.
Keiser and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection, and
to a subsequent telephone discussion between Mr. H. Nicholas and Mr. E. Figard
on April 2, 1982.
Areas examined during this inspection are described in the NRC Region I Inspection
Report which is enclosed with this letter. Within these areas, the inspection
consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative records,
interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.
Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that certain of your activities

Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A.

dated March 9, 1982.
You are required to respond to this letter and in preparing
your response, you should follow the instructions in Appendix A.

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.
Item 1 in Appendix A is a repeat violation for not verifying that FSAR commit-
ments are met during preoperational testing.
The previous violations were
forwarded by our letters dated September 11, 1980 and April 23, 1981. Your
October 16, 1980 reply stated that the cited preoperational tests would be
corrected and that Test Review Board (TRB) members had been reminded of their
responsibility and directed to incorporate FSAR requirements in preoperational
test procedures.
