Dear Mr. Dugger:

An NRC inspection was conducted January 12 through February 22,1997, at your

Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 reactor f acility. The enclosed report presents the

scope and results of that inspection.

During the 6-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities at

Waterford 3 was generally characterized by good performance of operations, maintenance, ,

!

engineering and plant support. However, two violations of NRC requirements were  !

identified. 4

\

The violations involve the failure to perform radiological surveys and label radioactive  ;

material, respectively, and are of concern because they resuited from inadequate oversight j

during movement of radioactive material between storage locations, l

The violations are cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) Please and thenote

circumstances

that

surrounding the violations are described in detail in the enclosed report. j

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,

l

its enclosurels), and your response will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room i

(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.
