SUBJECT:

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-327/93-34 AND 50-328/93-34)
This refers to the inspection conducted by William J. Tobin of this office on
I
July 12-16, 1993. The inspection included a review of activities authorized
for your Sequoyah facility. At the conclusion of the inspection, the findings
were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the enclosed
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 NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice). This violation is of concern because it is reflective of
management over' sight of significant elements of the Access Authorization Rule.
In addition, the enclosed Inspection Report identifies activities that
violated NRC requirements that will not be subject to enforcement action
because the licensee's efforts in identifying and/or correcting the violations
met the criteria specified in Section VII.B of the Enforcement Policy.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
'
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "P.ules of Practice," a copy of
this letter and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
