ATTN: Mr. Cordell Reed
Vice President

Chicago, IL 60690
Gentlemen:
This refers to our letter to you dated December 5,1986, which forwarded the
results of a special inspection of allegations and concerns relating to
safety-related electrical work (NRC Inspection Report Hos. 50-454/86031 and
50-455/86017). The letter also stated that we were evaluating enforcement
actions.
The evaluation has been completed and the NRC staff has determined that
certain of your activitie appeared to be in violation of NRC requirements, as
.
specified in the enclosed Notice. The inspection fcund several deficiencies
in Comnonwealth Edison Company's quality assurance program, as related to the
electrical contractor's activities, in that management controls were
inefffective in implementing this program.
These violations could be considered a Severity Level III prcblem because of
the numerous violaticns and the nature of the deficiencies in the electrical
(A/QC area.
However, after examination of the affected hardware, no safety significant
hardware deficiencies were identified. On this basis, we have concluded that
the appropriate enforcement action for this case is the issuance of Severity
Level IV and V violations. A written response is required. Also include in
your response any actions you have taken or plan to take at Braidwccd Station
to avoid similar types of violations.
Your reply to this letter and the results of future inspections in this area
will be considered in determining whether escalated enforcement action may be
appropriate if similar violaticr,s are identified.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Conmission's regulations, a copy of
this letter, the enclosure, and > cur response to this letter will be placed in
the NRC Public Docunent Rcom.
