Subject:

Byron Generating Station Units 1 and 2 Inspector Qualification and Certification Inspection Report Nos. 50-454/82-05 and 50-455/82-04 References (a): June 24,1982, letter from C. E. Norelius to Cordell Reed.

(b): February 23, 1983 letter.from W. L. Stiede to J. G. Keppler.

Dear Mr. Keppler:

This letter provides a preliminary report on actions taken to verify the adequacy.of QC inspections during construction of Byron Generating Station. This reinspection was~ undertaken as described in reference (b) in response to a Violation identified in reference (a).

The enclosed report describes the Byron reinspection program and summarizes the results. -A number of minor discrepancies were identified during the reinspections, but when taken as a whole the results do not indicate generic defects in past practices for the training and certification of QC inspectors. For this reason, no further inspection is judged necessary at this time.

Final analysis of the results is not yet complete. The final report uill be provided within four weeks and will document our complete analysis of the inspection results.

In the interim, we are available at your convenience to discuss the enclosed report. We are aware that regional inspection personnel have been involved in reviewing the reinspection program during its conduct. To the extent that we are aware of concerns identified during those reviews, those concerns will be addressed in the final report.
