SUBJECT:

MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 2 AND UNIT 3 - LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 05000336/2004009, 05000423/2004009

Dear Mr. Christian:

On July 30, 2004 the NRC completed the first inspection of your application for license renewal for the Millstone Power Station Units 2 and 3. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on October 20, 2004, with members of your staff at an exit meeting that was open for public observation at the Waterford Town Hall.

The purpose of this inspection was to examine the plant activities and documents that supported the application for a renewed license of the Millstone Power Station Units 2 and 3.

The inspection consisted of an examination of selected procedures, representative records, walkdowns of available areas, and interviews with plant personnel regarding the scoping and screening process used by Dominion staff to select systems, structures, and components subject to an aging management review. For a sample of plant systems, inspectors performed visual examinations of accessible portions of the systems to directly observe system boundaries described in the application for a renewed license.

The inspection team determined that the scoping and screening portion of the license renewal activities were conducted as described in the License Renewal Application and also that the supporting documentation was in an auditable and retrievable form. The inspection results supported a conclusion that the scoping and screening process identified systems, structures, and components that require consideration for aging management with reasonable assurance.

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 component of 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/

Raymond K. Lorson, Chief Materials and Structural Engineering Branch Division of Reactor Safety
