Gentlemen:

SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-348/85-08 AND 50-364/85-08

Reference is made to your letter of March 6,1987, concerning our evaluation of

your denial of Violation 3(B) which is documented in the above referenced

inspection report. Your denial, dated March 20, 1985, has been extensively

reviewed by my Safeguards staff in coordination with the NRC's Division of

Safeguards, Office of Nuclear Materials Safety and Safeguards (ONMSS) and the

Office of the Executive Legal Director (OELD). Certain unavoidable delays were

incurred in our evaluation of your denial; however, the violation warranted a

further review by the ONMSS Regulatory Effectiveness Review team which visited

your facility in February 1986. By letter dated August 28, 1986, the Office of

Nuclear Reactor Regulation (0NRR) furnished you the results of that visit.

After careful review of your denial we have concluded, for the reasons presented

in the enclosure to this letter, that the violation occurred at stated in our

Notice of Violation. We have also concluded that your proposed corrective

actions appear adequate as found in your October 13, 1986, correspondence in

response to the August 28, 1986, ONRR letter.

Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact us.

Sincerely,

-
