This refers to the routine safety inspection conducted by Mr. George Napuda of

Areas examined during this inspection are described in the NRC Region I Inspec-

tion Report which is enclosed with this letter.

Within these areas, the

inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures and representative

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

Our inspector also verified the steps you have taken to correct the violation

brought to your attention in our letter dated February 15, 1987. We have no
