December 7,1973 $

John G. Davis -

Deputy Director for Field Operations Directorate of Regulatory Operations, HQ REQUEST FOR GUIDANCE - ENFORCEMENT ACTION AGAINST I DOCKETED-UNLICENSED FACILITIES During our inspection of December 3-6, 1973, Docket Mos. 50-445 l and 50-446, a ar.mber of violations of the " Gray Book" portions relating to design and procurement activities, specifically in the i areas covered in Criterion I, II, and V of Appendix B, were i

identified. .

In general, these violations can be related implicitly to PSAR commitments, but do require a degree of subjective interpretation

. , '. of the co,unitments. Although this facility was docketed prior

~~*/ to September 1,1973, it falls into the interim guidance category, which places the requirements contained in our " Gray Book" on

"""] these facilities without the docketing prohibition stipulation.

'l .

f j Although Licensing is stillin the process of updating Section 17

.' of the PSAR, procurement and design is proceeding at the utility,  !

!l utilising a QA program which does not meet Regulatory requirements.

Request guidants as soon as possible on how such violations for l' ,

facilities should be ha.ndled.
