SUBJECT:

NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-244/97-06

Dear Dr. Mecredy:

This letter transmits the results of safety inspections conducted

by NRC inspectors at the

Ginna Nuclear Power Plant from June 30, 1997 through August 3, 1997. At the

conclusion of the inspection, the findings were discussed

with Mr. J. Widay and others of

your staff. The inspection report also includes a summary of the predecisional

enforcement conference

held in the NRC Region

I Office on August 5, 1997, to discuss the

vehicle barrier system issues identified in Inspection Report 50-244/97-08.

During the five week period covered by this inspection period, we noted safe plant

operation.

Several good activities in the operations

and maintenance

areas were noted,

including your efforts toward resolving the auxiliary feedwater pump recirculation valve

unreliability, diagnosing anomalous service water pump performance,

and replacing the

spent fuel pool weir gate bladder.

During our review of your radiological environmental monitoring program, we noted a

discrepancy between the meteorological tower base instrumentation

and the control room

instrumentation data.

We are concerned that the data discrepancy could impact

emergency response

activities.

We request that you review this matter and provide us the

results of your review in writing, including any corrective actions, within 60 days from the

receipt this letter.

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 (PDR).

Sincerely,

Original Signed
