Gentlemen:
Subject: NPPD Response to Inspection Report 50-298/89-07
'
This letter is written in response to your letter dated March 2'o, 1989,
transmitting Inspection Report 50-298/89-07.
Therein you indicated that
certain of our activities were in violation of NRC requirements.
Following is a statement of the violation and our response in accordance with
Statement of Violation
Failure to_ Provide a Timelv Response To a Notice of Violation
10 CFR 2.201 requires that the licensee respond, in writing, to a notice
of violation within a specified time.
Appendix A, Notice of Violation, to NRC Inspection Report 50 298/88-31
required that the licensee respond, in writing, to Violation 298/8831-01
within 30 days of November 18, 1988.
!
Contrary to the abeve, the licensee did not respond, in writing, to
Violation 298/8831-01 until February 10, 1989 (84 days after the issuance
or the violation).
This is a Severity Level IV violation.
(Supplement I) (298/8907-01)
Reason For The ViolatiRD
This violation was due to a personal error on the part of the Division
Manager - Nuclear Support which resulted in the required respotise to be
delayed well beyond the required thirty day period. He failed to give the-
appropriate priority to preparing the requisite letter describing the
District's actions regarding the violation described in Inspection Report
'
88-31.
He had set aside the draft of the subject response and permitted
other duties to distract him from completing the assignment for the time
Th%H
P*M8P]i[ied
his violation.

Corrective Steps Which Have Been Taken and the Results Achievgd
f
The response to Inspection keport 88-31 was submitted on February 10,
i
1989. A review was conducted to ensure that other correspondence action
required by the NRC at ?. hat time was not overdue,
)
Corrective Steps Taken Te Avoid Further Violation
The Division Manager was counseled on the importance of meeting the
assigned response times related to NRC correspondence. The District
believes that this is an isolated case and is riot a programmatic generic
issue or reflective of a significant breakdown in the District's tracking
systems for corrective action.
.
Date When Full Compliance Will be Achieved
The District is currently in full compliance.
Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this response.
Sincerely,
