Attention:

Mr. D.

W. Mazur

Managing Director

Gentlemen:

Subject:

Management

Meeting to Discuss the Systematic

Assessment

of

Licensee

Performance

(SALP)

This refers to the NRC's Initial SALP Board Report

No. 50-397/90-23,

which was

transmitted to you by our letter dated

November 8, 1990.

During our

management

meeting at Supply System Headquarters

on November 28, 1990,

we

discussed

the results of that assessment.

A copy of the agenda for that

meeting is enclosed.

A summary of our discussions

at that meeting,

which also

included dialogue

on two other subjects,

is provided in the enclosed

meeting

report.

As discussed

in our November 8 letter, in the Initial SALP Report transmitted

by that letter,

and during our November

28 meeting,

the

SALP board found your

overall performance to be generally strong

and directed toward safe facility

operation.

Specific strong performance

was noted in the Plant Operations

and

Safety Assessment/guality

Verification functional areas.

The Security and

Engineering/Technical

Support areas

were also considered

to have

shown

improving trends.

During our meeting you identified areas

to which you plan

to give continuing management

attention in order to realize long term

improvement in all of the functional areas.

In particular maintenance,

emergency

preparedness,

radiation protection,

and system engineers

appear to

deserve

increased

management

involvement.

Your staff is commencfed for the substantial effort and notable

improvement

shown during the past two SALP periods, particularly in the Plant Operations,

Safety Assessment/guality

Verification, and Engineering/Technical

Support

functional areas.

Your management's

continuing support is strongly encouraged

to sustain the upward momentum which has

been established.

Our November

8 letter noted that you are not required to reply to the

SALP

Board's report but could do so, if desired, within 30 days after our November

28 meeting.

Per discussions

with the

NRC and your staff, you stated that you

did not intend to reply to the Board's report, but would discuss

your ongoing

actions during periodic management

meetings.

No changes

have therefore

been

made to the Initial SALP Board Report

No. 50-397/90-23,

issued

by our letter

dated

November 8, 1990,

and it is considered

to be the Final

SALP report.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790(a),

a copy of this letter and the enclosures

will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

Should you have any questions

concerning this letter, the issues

discussed

in

the enclosed

meeting report, or the

SALP Board's report,

we will be pleased

to

discuss

them with you.

Since ely,

Regional Administrator
