INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-259/98-03 '0-260/98-03,

50-296/98-03

Dear Mr. Scalice:.

On May 23 '998, the

NRC completed

an inspection at your Browns Ferry

facility.

The enclosed

report presents

the results of that inspection.

During the six-week period covered

by this inspection period. your conduct of

activities at the Browns Ferry facility was generally characterized

by safety

conscious

operations,

well conducted surveillance activities,

and effective

plant support.

An evaluation of your

implementation of Generic Letter 89-10 for Unit 3 was

conducted during this inspection.

The evaluation

determined that

some aspects

of implementation

had not been adequately

completed,

as the assumptions

used

in establishing

the settings

and capabilities of certain valves were not

adequately justified.

As described in the enclosed

inspection report,

you are

requested

to inform us of your plans

and schedule to obtain and analyze

applicable test data to justify the assumptions

for these valves.

.Please

provide your response within 30 days of the date of 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 by Harold O. Christensen)
