SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION

(INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-338/93-08 AND 50-339/93-08)

This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted by

Mr. M. Lesser of this office on January 17 - February 20, 1993. The

-

inspection included a review of activities authorized for your North Anna

facility. At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed

with those members of your staff identified in the enclased 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

activities in progress.

Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of the NRC requirements as specified in the enclosed Notice

of Violation (Notice). The violation is of concern beczuse administrative

controls during core alterations failed to preclude a containment breach

during refueling. Although this latest occurrence was promptly identified and

corrected by your operators, it indicates continued problems associated with

maintaining containment penetrations properly secured.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice", a copy of

this. letter and its enclosures will be placed in the NkC Public Document Room.

The responses directed by this letter and the enclosed Notice are not subject

to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget as required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, Pub. L. No.96-511.
