SUBJECT:

INDIAN POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING UNIT 3 - PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION INSPECTION REPORT 05000286/2004005

Dear Mr. Dacimo:

On October 1, 2004, the NRC completed an inspection at the Indian Point Unit 3, Nuclear Power Plant. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings which were discussed on October 1, 2004, with Mr. Schwarz 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.

There were no findings of significance identified during this inspection. On the basis of the samples selected for review, the team concluded that problems were properly identified, evaluated, and resolved within the problem identification and resolution program (PI&R).

However, during the inspection, several examples of minor problems were identified, including conditions adverse to quality that were not being entered into the corrective action program, narrowly focused condition report evaluations, and corrective actions that were ineffectively tracked or had not occurred.

Mr. Fred In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 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/
