Docket No. 50-293

Boston Edison Company M/C Nuclear

ATTN: Mr. Ralph G. Bird

Senior Vice President-Nuclear

Boston, Massachusetts 02199

Gentlemen:

Subject:

Inspection Report No. 50-293/87-16

This refers to the routine safety inspection (50-293/87-16) conducted by

Dr. M. McBride, Mr. J. Lyash and Mr. T. Kim of this office on February 21, 1987

to April 6,1987 at the P,ilgrim 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. We identified one viola-

tion of NRC requirements as discussed in the enclosed Notice of Violation.

Please respond to the Notice within thirty days from receipt of this letter.

This violation indicates poor attention to detail in performance of fire pro-

tection equipment surveillances. Our inspection also indicates that your newly

established Fire Protection Group is not yet fully effective in monitoring fire

protection system equipment status. Although progress in the Fire Protection

Program has been evident since our meeting in January of this year, the program

still requires continued attention.

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,
