Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. R. A. Caldwell of this office

during the period of October 26-29, 1987, of activities authorized by NRC

Operating License DPR-46 for the Cooper Nuclear Station, and to the discussion

of our findings with Mr. G. R. Horn and other members of your staff at the

conclusion of the inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection included access control personnel;

locks, keys, and combinations; communications; detection aids - vital area; and

alarm stations. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective

examination of procedures and representative records, interviews with

personnel, and observations by the NRC inspector. The inspection findings are

documented in the enclosed inspection report.

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

to be in violation of NRC requirements. As discussed in our telephone

conversation on December 23, 1987, with your staff, we agreed to schedule an

enforcement conference in the near future to discuss your understanding of

these apparent violations, the reasons for occurrence, and your corrective

actions. We will also discuss the enforcement policy with you at that

conference.

We have also examined actions you have taken with regard to previously

identified inspection findings. The status of these items is identified in

paragraph 2 of the enclosed report.

The material enclosed herewith contains Safeguards Information as defined by

10 CFR Part 73.21 and its disclosure to unauthorized individuals is prohibited

by Section 147 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. Therefore, the

material, with the exception of the report ccver page which is an inspection

summary, will ng be placed in the Public Document Room.
