Dear Mr. Kaup:

,

This refers to the inspection conducted by Messrs. S. G. Du Pont,

E. R. Duncan,

R. Landsman, D. Butler and C. E. Brown of this office and J. Romar, of the

Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety on August 9 through September 16, 1994.

The inspection included a review of activities authorized for your Braidwood

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.

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.

The violation is of concern because adherence to procedures is an

important part of safe plant operation.

A number of these examples were NRC

identified.

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 enclosures, and your response to this letter will be placed in the

NRC Public Document Room.

The responses directed by this letter and the accompanying Notice are not subject

to the clearance procedures of the Office of Management and Budget as required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, Pub. L.96-511.
