SUBJECT:
PRAIRIE ISLAND UNITS 1 AND 2 - NOTIFICATION REGARDING THE RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER (GL) 2004-01, REQUIREMENTS FOR STEAM GENERATOR TUBE INSPECTIONS (TAC NOS. MC4842, MC4843)
Dear Mr. Solymossy:
On August 30, 2004, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Generic Letter (GL) 2004-01, Requirements For Steam Generator Tube Inspections. The purpose of GL 2004-01, was to obtain information that would enable the NRC staff to determine whether licensees steam generator (SG) tube inspection programs comply with the existing tube inspection requirements (the plant technical specifications) in conjunction with Appendix B to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B.
By letter dated October 29, 2004, Nuclear Management Company, LLC, responded to GL 2004-01, for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Units 1 and 2. The NRC staffs review of your response to the GL did not identify any concerns with the inspection practices employed at Prairie Island Units 1 and 2. The NRC staff, therefore, concludes that your SG tube inspection practices are in compliance with the existing tube inspection requirements.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (301)415-8371.
Sincerely,
/RA/
