Areas examined during the inspection included followup on a previously
identified NRC item, operational safety verification, engineered safety

areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of procedures and
representative records, interviews with personnel, and observations by the
inspector. The inspection findings are documented in the enclosed inspection

During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in
