SUBJECT: COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION - ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RECEIPT OF

DENIAL OF LICENSEE IDENTIFIED NONCITED VIOLATION IN NRC

INSPECTION REPORT 05000397/2006002

Dear Mr. Parrish:

Thank you for your letter from Mr. W. S. Oxenford, Vice President, Technical Services, dated

June 9, 2006, in response to our May 12, 2006, letter and integrated inspection report. In your

letter you contested the characterization of a licensee identified noncited violation of very low

safety significance (Green) concerning the application of WD-40 penetrating oil to the standby

service water pumps. As documented in your letter dated June 9, 2006, Energy Northwest

disagrees with the characterization of this issue as more than minor and therefore denies the

characterization as a noncited violation.

The NRC is reviewing your response letter and will inform you of the results of our review by

separate correspondence.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and

your response (if any) will be made 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/

Claude E Johnson, Chief
