December 11,1992 LeMoine J. Cunningham, Chief Radiation Protection Branch Division of Radiation Safety and Safeguards Nuclear Regulatory Commission Mail Stop 10D4 Washington, D.C. 20555 RE: Reported Respirator Problems at Trojan Nuclear

Dear Mr. Cunningham:

This is in response to our phone conversation of December 9,1992.

You are in receipt of our letter of September 17,1992, to NIOSH outlining the respirator problems at Trojan Nuclear. The problems encountered at Trojan centered on some special orders from MS A. As ste.ted in that letter, we have had no other similar problems with the over 50,000 Ultra-Twin respirators sold ln 1991 or any others sold to date in 1992. We consider this to be an isolated incident and are convinced that this not a generic problem with our products.

To prevent any reoccurrence of this type of problem, we have reviewed our inspection procedures for special material with our production personnel. We reinforced the importance of following -

established manufacturing and inspection procedures We have also taken steps necessary to reduce occurrence of this type problem and I am confident we have been successful.

f If you have any question, please contact me.

Sincerely, R. D.#brunberg Product Line Mgr.
