Thank you for your_ response of July 17, 1997, to our Notice of Violation (NOV)

We have evaluated your response and found that it meets the

requirements of 10 CFR 2.201. We will examine the implementation of your

corrective actions during future inspections.

After reviewing your letter, we agree with your statement that Unit 2 did not

o)erate in the " Operation Not Allowed Region" of the power-to-flow map during

t1is event as stated in the Notice of Violation. The appropriate title of the

region in question should have been the "Immediate Exit Region".

power g

We appreciate your bringing this to our attention and your cooperation in this

Sincerely,
