SUBJECT:

NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50 325/97-13.

50-324/97-13 AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear Mr. Hinnant:

On December 27. 1997, the NRC completed an inspection at your Brunswick

reactor facility.

The-enclosed report presents-the results of that

inspection.

During the six weeks covered by-this inspection period. our ins)ectors found

that your staff generally took a safety conscious approach to tie activities

conducted at the Brunswick plant.

We are concerned, however, about'three

violations of NRC requirements that were identified.

In the first violation,

clearance records were not retained as quality records.

A configuration -

change that occurred due to recent maintenance activities could not be

reviewed due to records not being maintained.

in the second violation, an

out of-specification value was not red circled as required by plant

procedures. The third violation was due to maintenance procedures not-

specifying inspection criteria to detect deficient seals in a motor control

center and for allowing lubricants different from those specified in-

Environmental Qualification Data Packages.

These violations are cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation and the

t

-

circumstances surrounding the violations are described in detail in the-

encirsed report.

Please note that you are required to respond to this letter

. [

and should follow the instructions specified in the enclosed Notice when

preparing your response.

The NRC will use your response, in part to

determine whether further enforcement action is necessary to ensure compliance

with regulatory requirements.
