SUBJECT:

NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-269/97-16, 50-270/97-16,

50-287/97-16 AND NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Dear Mr. McCollum:

On December 27, 1997, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an

integrated inspection at your Oconee 1, 2, and 3 reactor facilities. The

enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.

During the six-week period covered by this inspection, your conduct of

activities at the Oconee facilities was generally characterized by safety

conscious operations, maintenance, and engineering practices. However, six

violations of NRC requirements are cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation

(Notice). The circumstances surrounding the violations are described in

detail in the enclosed report.

You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions

specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. The NRC will

use your response, in part, to determine whether further enforcement action

is necessary to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of

this letter, its enclosures, and your response will be placed in the NRC

Public Document Room (PDR).

Sincerely,

Original signed by:

Charles R. Ogle, Chief
