SUBJECT:

R. E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION &

RESOLUTION INSPECTION REPORT 05000244/2004007

Dear Mrs. Korsnick:

On November 5, 2004, the NRC completed an inspection at the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings which were discussed on November 5, 2004, with Mr. Joe Widay and members of your staff.

The inspection was an examination of activities conducted under your license as they relate to the identification and resolution of problems, compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations, and the conditions of your operating license. Within these areas, the inspection involved examination of selected procedures and representative records, observations of activities, and interviews with personnel.

On the basis of the samples selected for review, no findings of significance were identified during this inspection. The team concluded that problems were properly identified, evaluated, and resolved within the problem identification and resolution program. However, the backlog for Priority 1 and 2 Action Reports (ARs) was somewhat high. In some instances, corrective actions were not being completed in a timely manner. The immediate and/or most important corrective actions taken were effective and complete. Ginna management was aware of this issue and was taking actions to address it.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web Site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,

/RA/

Christopher G. Cahill, Chief (Acting)

Performance Evaluation Branch Division of Reactor Safety Docket No.
