                             Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of                 ,
                             procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and                    ;
                             observations-by the inspectors. The inspection findings are documented in the

                             During .this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in-
                          -violation of NRC requirements. :However, in accordance with Section V.A of the
                                         ~
                           -
                          -NRC's Enforcement Policy, no citations are being issued for the violations
                             discussed in paragraphs 5.a, 5.b, and 5.c of the enclosed inspection-report.
                           .For:the violation discussed in paragraph 5.c, your staff failed to revise a
                           : safety analysis for a field change to a design modification. Although the act
                           , constituted procedural noncompliance,- the safety significance was minor.     It-       1
                             was' evident-the staff had examined the full effect of the field change.- Fori          o
                             the violation identified in paragraphs 5.a and.5.b, your. staff failed to
                             document and report deficiencies as required by'the quality assurance plan. It           ',
                             was evident that the deficiencies were elevated to the appropriate levels of
                             management; however, documentation and formal corrective action were lacking.
                             Plant management addressed these issues identified by the inspector in a prompt
                          ,and thorough manner.
