SUBJECT:

REPORT
NOS. 50-220/96-04
AND 50-410/96-04
Dear Hr. Sylvia:
This letter transmits
the results of the emergency
preparedness
program
and
the off-year exercise
evaluation
inspection led by Hr.
D. Silk, from
Hay 13-17,
1996,
at the Nine Hile Point Nuclear Station,
Units
1
and 2,
Scriba,
The inspectors
based their findings on interviews with
personnel,
examinations of selected
procedures
and records,
and observations
of performance of emergency
response
organization
members
during the exercise.
The inspectors
discussed their findings with Hr. Richard
B. Abbott, Vice
President
and General
Hanager,
Nuclear,
and other members of your staff, at
the exit meeting
conducted
on Hay 17,
1996.
Significant findings are
reflected in the Executive
Summary.
Overall, the emergency
preparedness
program was determined to be in a good
state of readiness.
Improvements
were noted since the last program
inspection,
however,
several
instances
of program control weaknesses
were also
noted,
such
as failure to test the technical
support center ventilation
filter.
The inspectors
assessed
the performance of your emergency
response
organization during the exercise
as good.
The post-exercise
critique process
and findings were also noted
as good.
In accordance
with 10 CFR 2.790 of the
NRC's "Rules of Practice,"
a copy of
this letter
and its enclosures will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
Sincerely,
ORIGINAL SIGNED BY:
