Gentlemen:

SUBJECT:

NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-348/92-25 AND 50-364/92-25

This refers to the inspection conducted by G. F. Maxwell of this office on

October 5 through November 9, 1992.

The inspection included a review of

activities authorized for your Farley 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.

The enclosed inspection report identifies activities that violate NRC

requirements that will not be subject to enforcement action because the

licensee's efforts in identifying the violations meet the criteria specified

in Section Vil B. of the Enforcement policy.

However, we are concerned about

these three events because they indicate a need for increased attention to

detail by the individuals involved. We recognize that your " STAR" (Stop,

Think, Act, Review) program has been effective in preventing additional

events; however, increased effort is need to minimize these type events and

"near misses".

Particular emphasis should be directed toward the individuals

and managers involved in these (and previous events) to assure that the root

cause(s) of these type problems are identified and corrected,

in accordance with Section 2.790 of tue NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of

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

Shor' J you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact us.

Sincerely,

omcmAt. SC" M
