Dear Mr. Dugger:
i The Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff has completed its review of licensee responses to NRC Generic Letter (GL) 97-05, " Steam Generator Tube Inspection Techniques."
The focus of GL 97-05 was to verify that licensees' steam generator tube inspection practices were consistent with existing regulatory requirements and plant licensing bases. Entergy Operations, Inc.

The staff's review of this response did not identify any concerns with the steam generator tube inspection techniques employed at Waterford 3 l
1 that would Indicate that EOl is not in compliance with the current licensing basis for Waterford 3. This completes our review on this subject.
