ATTN:

L. G. Kuncl, Vice President Nuclear

P. O. Box 499

Columbus, Nebraska 68601

Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. R. E. Baer of this office during

the period June 9-13, 1986, of activities authorized by NRC Operating

License DPR-46 for Cooper Nuclear Station, and to the discussion of our

findings with Mr. G. R. Horn and other members of your staff at the conclusion

of the inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection included portions of the solid radioactive

waste and transportation programs. Within these areas, the inspection

consisted of selective examination of procedures and representative records,

interviews with personnel, and observations by the inspecto:-

The inspection

findings are documented in the enclosed inspection report.

During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in

violation of NRC requirements. Consequently, you are required to respond to

these violations, in writing, in accordance with the provisions of

Section 2.201 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of

Federal Regulations.

Your response should be based on the specifics contained

in the Notice of Violation enclosed with this letter.

We are particularly concerned regarding the failure of your radiological survey

programs to properly cer. trol the release of the ccntaminated aluminum oxide

grit discussed in paragraph 12 of the enclosed inspection report.

Even though

the radiological safety significance associated with this matarial was small,

you were fortunate that the sandblaster was senc to a facility that performed a

receiving radiation survey.

If the sandblaster had been used at a different

job site, it is likely that extensive contamination of unrestricted areas could

have occurred. Therefore, we request that your management perform a thorough

review of this event to assure that proper radiological controls have been

implemented.

The response directed by this letter and the accompanying Notice is not subject

to the clearance procedures of the Office of Man ement and Budget as required

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL 96-51
