Dear Mr. Horn:

From July 12 through August 22,1998, an inspection was conducted at your Cooper Nuclear

enclosed report presents the scope and results of that inspection.

During this inspection, we noted generally good plant operations and several examples of good

performance in resolving problems. We also noted, however, a number of examples of weak

. problem resolution, mostly associated with problems of small safety significance.' We noted

.

continued emphasis on improved performance and encourge your efforts in this key area.

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them

with you.

Sincerely, -
