Dear Mr. Wadley:
On February 7,1997, the NRC completed an inspection at your Prairie Island Nuclear
!
Generating Plant. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
l
[
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within these areas, the
l
inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures and representative records,
!
. observations, and interviews with personnel.
{
i
Overall, the implementation of radiological controls was effective in maintaining a
reasonable collective dose for the work accomplished during the Unit 2 outage. The
j
inspector observed outage work in progress in the auxiliary and containment buildings and
reviewed radiation protection planning activities associated with the outage. Reviews of
l
shutdown chemistry, the recent abnormal liquid effluent release, and implementation of
!
the respiratory program were also conducted. No violations of NRC requirements or open
j
items were identified.
l
in accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules and Practice," a copy of this letter
,
and its enclosures will be place in the NRC Public Document Room.
