Millstone Power Station D mno Rope Ferry Road Waterford, CT 06385 NOV 5 2JQ Docket No. 50-336 B19007 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attention: Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 Millstone Power Station, Unit No. 2 Special Report - Steam Generator Tube Inservice Examination This special report is being submitted pursuant to the requirements of Plant Technical Specifications 6.9.2.j and 4.4.5.1.5.a. Specification 4.4.5.1.5.a requires a special report be submitted to the commission within 15 days following completion of each steam generator tube inservice inspection, to document the number of tubes plugged.

The end of cycle 15 eddy current inspections were completed on October 25, 2003.

The inspection examined one hundred percent of the tubes in steam generator number 2, or approximately 50 percent of the total population of tubes. No tubes were removed from service as a result of the examination.

The tables contained within Attachment 1 briefly summarize the number of tubes examined, types of examinations, and results. Eddy current testing identified flaws in two (2) tubes resulting from fan bar wear (less than 11 percent throughwall), and five (5) tubes with loose part wear or single volumetric indications (less than 24 percent throughwall). The loose parts which caused the tube damage were located below the first support plate and removed from the steam generator during the Foreign Object Search and Retrieval. The complete results of the steam generator tube inspection will be included in the Annual Operating Report, which is expected to be issued in February 2004.

There are no regulatory commitments contained within this letter.

Should you have any questions regarding this submittal, please contact Mr. David W. Dodson at (860) 447-1791, extension 2346.

Very truly yours, DOMINION NUCLEAR CONNECTICUT, INC.
