SUBJECT:

NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION, UNITS 1 & 2 - NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 05000220/2006006 AND 05000410/2006006

Dear Mr. OConnor:

On May 25, 2006, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a triennial fire protection inspection at your Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on May 25, 2006, with you and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your licenses. The purpose of the inspection was to evaluate your post-fire safe shutdown capability and fire protection program. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified.

The scope of the inspection was reduced for Unit 1, in accordance with Inspection procedure 71111.05TTP, issued May 9, 2006, as a result of your ongoing project to convert the Unit 1 fire protection program to the performance-based methodology described in National Fire Protection Association Standard 805.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,

/RA by Marsha K. Gamberoni for/
