Quad Cities Nuclear Plant Meeting Summary The findings and conclusions of the SALP Board are documented in Reports No. 50-254/85001, and No. 50-265/85001. They were discussed with the licensee on January 10, 1986, at the Region III office in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. The licensee's regulatory performance was presented in each functional area. Overall performance and performance in each functional area was found to be acceptable. The performance rating improved in the area of Plant Operations. While the performance rating in the area of Surveillance and Inservice Testing declined based on the number and nature of the violations identified, there was not a declining trend noted. The licensee continues to have a high level of performance in the areas of Radiation Protection, Emergency Preparedness, Security, Refueling, and Licensing activitie While this meeting was primarily a discussion between the licensee and the NRC, it was open to members of the public as observer The following licensee and NRC personnel were in attendance on January 10, 198 Commonwealth Edison Company B.
