SUBJECT:

SEMIANNUAL PLANT PERFORMANCE REVIEW (SPPR) - GRAND GULF l

Dear Mr. Hagan:

I On March 25,1997, the NRC staff completed the SPPR of Grand Gulf. The staff conducts these reviews for all operating nuclear power plants to develop an integrated understanding l of safety performance. The results are used by NRC management to facilitate planning and  !

allocation of inspection resources. The SPPR for Grand Gulf involved the participation of all technical divisions in evaluating inspection results and safety performance information j for the period October 1996 through March 1997. SPPRs provide NRC management with l a current summary of licensee performance and serve as inputs to the NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance and Senior Management Meeting reviews.

This letter advises you of our planned inspection effort resulting from the Grand Gulf SPPR j review. It is provided to minimize the resource impact on your staff and to allow for scheculing conflicts and personnel availability to be resolved in advance of inspector arrival ,

onsite. The enclosure details our inspection plan for the next 8 months. The rationale or l basis for each inspection outside the core inspection program is provided such that you are aware of the reason for emphasis in these program areas. Resident inspections are not listed due to their ongoing and continuous nature.

We willinform you of any changes to the inspection plan, if you have any questions, .

please contact Phil Harrell at (817) 860-8250. l Sincerel ,
