             Docket No. 50-293
             Boston Edison Company
             ATTN: Mr. Ralph G. Bird
                     Senior Vice President-Nuclear

             Gentlemen:
             Subject: NRC Region I Inspection Report No. 50-293/88-12
             This refers to the routine safety inspection (50-293/88-12) conducted by Messrs.
             C. Warren, J. Lyash and T. Kim of this of fice on March 6 to April 17, 1988 at.          *
             the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station, Plymouth, Massachusetts.
             Areas examined during this inspection are described in the NRC Region I
             Inspection Report which is enclosed with this letter. This inspection noted
             continued improvement in the areas of problem investigation and root cause
             analysis.
             Based on the results of this intpection however, it appears that certain plant
             component modification activities were not conducted in full compliance with
             NRC requirements, as set forth in the Notice of Violation enclosed herewith as
             Appendix A.    Portions of a plant design change were not properly reviewed and
             released resulting in incorrect equipment installation.          .In addition, the
             design verification testing did not meet Quality Assurance requirements and
             failed to verify the design adequacy.                                                    ,
             The response 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, PL 96-511.
             Your cooperation with us in this matter is appreciated.
                                                        Sincerely,
                                                                                                       !
