at the conclusion of the inspection.

The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during

the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective

examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and

interviews with personnel.

During this inspection, certain of your activities appeared to be in violation

discuss your recent operating experience. During the meeting held on

-February 27, 1987, you discussed a number of events and concerns, including

-those represented by the violations set'forth in the enclosure, and described

your corrective actions to minimize recurrence of these types of problems.

We will closely monitor the effectiveness.of your corrective actions. Addi-

tional violations of this type could lead tc escalated enforcement.

We are also concerned about an inadequate safety evaluation of a proposed

deviation from the Course of Action (C0A) commitment regarding the lineup of

the motor driven feedwater pump (MDFP) above 40% plant power (Paragraph 4 of

the inspection report). Your staff's verbal statement to NRR and to our
