SUBJECT:

NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-244/99-03

Dear Dr. Mecredy:

This letter transmits the results of safety inspections conducted by NRC inspectors at the Ginna

Nuclear Power Plant from April 5 through May 16, 1999. At the conclusion of the inspection, the

findings were discussed with Mr. J. Widay and others of your staff.

During the six weeks covered by this inspection, we observed activities associated with the

completion of the refueling outage and unit restart.

We noted good operator performance with

respect to unit start-up evolutions and appropriate control room operator response to two

automatic reactor shutdowns.

We observed an unusually high number of reportable events

during this inspection period, some ofwhich reflect poor staff performance.

Additional

management attention to this short-term performance trend may be warranted.

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

enclosures willbe placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR).

Sincerely,

Original Signed
