NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-397/96-21

Dear Mr. Parrish:

An NRC inspection was conducted September

15 through October 26, 1996, at your

Washington Nuclear Project-2 reactor facility. The enclosed report presents the scope and

results of that inspection.

Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report.

Within these areas, the

inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures

and representative

records,

interviews with personnel,

and observation of activities in progress.

The results of this

inspection are documented

in the enclosed report.

During the 6-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities at

the WNP-2 facility was generally characterized

by safety-conscious

operations, sound

engineering and maintenance

practices, and appropriate radiological work controls.

Operator response to several off-normal events was prompt and conservative.

Please note that Section 08.1 of the enclosed report closes

a violation cited in previous

NRC Inspection Report 50-397/94-19 for which NRC inadvertently failed to respond to

your Letter G02-94-203, dated August 29, 1994, denying the violation. As stated in

Section 08.1, NRC believes the violation was valid and we consider this matter closed

based on our review of your actions.

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

a copy of this letter

and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR).

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss

them with you.

Sincerely,'C

J. E. Dyer, Director

Division of Reactor Projects
