Dear Mr. Sylvia:

SUBJECT: NRC REGION I COMBINED INSPECTION REPORT NOS.

50-220/93-15 AND 50-410/93-15

This letter transmits the NRC Region I inspection report for the inspections conducted by

Mr. R. Bhatia of this office on July 19-23, 1993, at Niagara Mohawk, Salina Meadows

Office in Syracuse, New York, and at Nine Mile Point Units 1 and 2, Scriba, New York.

Mr. Bhatia discussed the findings of this inspection with members of your staff at the

conclusion of the inspection.

Areas examined during this inspection focused on assessing the offsite power supply sources

for Nine Mile Units 1 and 2 and your completed corrective actions to close the previous

Electrical Distribution Functional Inspection (EDSFI) outstanding items for Unit 1. The

inspection included the ongoing breaker replacement effort to further enhance the offsite

power supply sources for Unit 2, based on several concerns generated by the loss of power

events during the last two years. Within this scope, the inspection consisted of selective

examinations of design records, procedures and representative records, interviews with

personnel, and observations by the inspector.

Overall, the inspector concluded that the Nine Mile Point 1 and 2 offsite power sources are

reliable. We note that you have taken adequate steps to assure corrective and preventive

measures to enhance the reliability of the station offsite power supply sources. Further, you

are replacing the four less reliable 115 kV breakers in the Scriba substation during the 1993

fall refueling outage of Unit 2. In addition, the corrective actions for three previously

identified issues were found to be adequate and the items are closed. One other issue

reviewed pertaining to the emergency diesel generator transient loading analysis was found

partially complete; however, because of the low margin obtained in your calculation results,

you have taken
