inspection findings, complex surveillance, inservice inspection, primary

containment integrated leak rate test, reactor coolant system hydrostatic test,

plant startup from refueling, startup testing, security activities, emergency

preparedness drills, notification of an unusual event, and followup of licensee

event reports.

Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of

procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and

observations by the inspector.

These findings are documented in the enclosed
