'

inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative

, records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspector.

2

Based on the results of this inspection, it appears that one of your activities

was not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements, as set forth in the

Notice of Violation, enclosed herewith as Appendix A. This violation has been

categorized by severity level in accordance with the " General Statement of

Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C

preparing your response, you should follow the instructions in Appendix A.

This also refers to your request for a reconsideration of the Notice of

Violation enclosed in our letter dated June 26, 1986. We determined that the

I violation remains as issued because the dial gauges were not controlled in

I accordance with your Measurement and Test Equipment Program. Further, our

inspectors reviewed the implementation of the corrective and preventive actions

described in your letter dated July 29, 1986. As noted in Inspection Report
