SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-361/96-19:50-362/96-19 AND NOTICE OF
VIOLATION
Dear Mr. Ray:
An NRC inspection was conducted December 16-20,1996, at your San Onofre Nuclear
Generating Station, Units 2 and 3 reactor facilities. The enclosed report presents the
scope and results of that inspection.
The inspection identified three radiological control violations which call into question the
,
attentiveness of the staff at San Onofre. These violations addressed the control of
radioactive material, the labeling of radioactive material containers, and the awareness by
plant workers of radiological conditions. Our concern is heightened because of the 23
examples, found by your staff between August and December 1995, where uncontrolled
radioactive material was found outside of the radiological controlled area. Your corrective
actions have not yet been effective in correcting this problem.
The violations are cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) and the circumstances
surrounding the violations are described in detailin the enclosed report. Please note that
you are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions specified in the
enclosed Notice when preparing your response. The NRC will use your response, in part,
to determine whether further enforcement action is necessary to ensure compliance with
regulatory requirements.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter,
its enclosure (s), and your response will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room
(PDR). To the extent possible, your response should not include any personal privacy,
proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without
'
redaction.
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss
them with you.
Sincerely,
9
