SUBJECT:

NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-325/93-32 AND 50-324/93-32

This refers to the special announced team inspection conducted by

R. E. Carroll of this office on August 16-20, 1993. This inspection was the

first of several special team inspections planned to specifically evaluate the

effectiveness of those efforts being taken to bring about long-term sustained

improvement at the Brunswick Nuclear Plant.

Focusing on the Brunswick Three-

Year Plan and CP&L's Corporate Improvement Initiatives, this inspection

assessed improvements in management oversight / leadership, as it relates to:

expectations and standards; senior management involvement; overall management

control; and communications. At the conclusion of the inspection, the

findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the

enclosed report.

Specific areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report.

Inspection of these specific areas consisted of selective examinations of

procedurcs and representative records, interviews with personnel, and

observation of activities in progress.

Within the scope of the inspection, violations or deviations were not

identified.

The report concludes that there has been progress towards

improving expectations and standards, senior management involvement, overall

management control, and communications. Tempered with the uncertainties of

resource planning-related initiatives, management of the Three-year Plan has

thus far been in favorable contrast with that of the previous Integrated

Action Plan. However, as addressed in the enclosed report, the need for

continued improvement is evident.

As indicated earlier, it is NRC's intent to conduct several more such special

inspections. These future inspections are intended to focus on improvements

within the areas of work control processes, self-assessment / corrective action

programs and material condition upgrade, as well as to assess the continued

effectiveness of management oversight / leadership.

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

this letter and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
