This refers to the roucitie safety inspection conducted by Messrs. J. E. Hard
and M. M. Moser of this office on May 15 through June 25, 1988, of activities
at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2, authorized by
NRC Operating Licenses No. OPR-42 and No. DPR-60, and to the discussion of our
findings with Mr. Watzl and other members of your staff at the conclusion of
the inspection.
O
The enclosed copy of our inspection report identifies areas examined during
,
V)
the inspection. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective
I
examination of procedures and representative records, observations, and
interviews with personnel.
,
No violations of NRC requirements were identified during the course of this
inspection.
However, our inspection report identifies and discusses items of
safety concern to our inspectors.
See the discussion of the May.25, 1988
,'
substation activity in Section 3.
A special meeting was held in Glen Ellyn,
IL on January 7,1988 between Northern States Power and RIII management to
discuss temporary procedures for the control of substation work while a
!
long-tenn solution was being negotiated between the parties involved.
These
l
temporary procedures seem not to have been formalized. A written response is
requested to clarify the events surrounding the May 25 actuation and the
'
status of controls over substation work.
'
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790(a) of the Commission's regulations, a copy of
this letter and the enclosure (s) will be placed in the NRC Public Document
j
Room.
