Executive Vice-President Nuclear Generation Duke Energy Corporation PO Box 1006 Charlotte, NC 28201-1006 SUBJECT: MCGUIRE AND CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATIONS - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-369/02-06, 50-370/02-06, 50-413/02-06 AND 50-414/02-06

Dear Mr. Tuckman:

On July 26, 2002, the NRC completed an inspection regarding your application for license renewal for the McGuire and Catawba Nuclear Stations. The enclosed inspection report presents the results of that inspection. The results of this inspection were discussed with members of your staff on July 26, 2002, in a public exit meeting at the Duke Energy Corporation offices.

The purpose of this inspection was to examine activities that support your application for renewed license for the McGuire and Catawba facilities. The inspection consisted of a selected examination of procedures and representative records, and interviews with personnel regarding your proposed aging management programs to support license extension. In addition, for a sample of plant systems, inspectors performed a visual examination of accessible portions of the systems to observe any effects of equipment aging.

The inspection concluded that the existing aging management programs are being conducted as described in your License Renewal Application and your plans for new aging management programs appear acceptable to manage plant aging.

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 NRC's 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).
