This letter refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. C. Myers during the  :

-period of October 18 through 22, 1993, of activities authorized by NRC License  !

Nos. NPF-21, NPF-51 and NPF-74 and to the discussion of our findings held with  !

members of your staff on October 22, 1993. The inspection evaluated the  ;

effectiveness of your activities to assure the operability and reliability of  !

motor operated valves (MOVs) in safety-related systems.

Specific areas examined during this inspection are described in the enclosed

inspection report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective ,

examinations of procedures and representative records, and interviews with  !

personnel.  ;

- f

Your MOV program was found to be implemented consistent with your commitments  !

to Generic Letter (GL) 89-10. Your test activities were generally effective j

in establishing assurance of design basis capability for the MOVs which were  ;

sampled during the inspection, j

A recent self-assessment of your MOV ' program conducted by your Independent .

Safety and Quality Engineering group was found to be comprehensive with  ;

substantive findings. Similar weaknesses identified during this inspection

" were also identified by your review. We encourage you to assure a timely .

'

response to the deficiencies which were identified in your self-assessment.

'

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased

to discuss them with you.

Sincerely,
