SUBJECT: ROUTINE RESIDENT INSPECTION AT DAVIS-BESSE (50-346/94006(DRP))

This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. S. Stasek, J. M. Shine, and

T. M. Tongue of this office on June 3,1994, through July 22, 1994. The

inspection included a review of activities authorized for your Davis-Besse

Nuclear Power Station. 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.

Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared

to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of

Violation (Notice). The violation is of particular concern because it

involves instances where your administrative procedures were not adequately

adhered to. Procedural adherence problems at Davis-Besse have been previously

identified in recent inspection reports and continue to be of concern to the

NRC.

You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions

specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. In your

response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional

actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response'to this

Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future

inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is

necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.

\

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of

this letter, the enclosed inspection report and your responses to this letter
