Dear Mr. Maret:

!-

On October 10,1998, the NRC completed a six week period of inspection at your Vermont

Yankee reactor facility. In addition to the routine Resident inspector activities, announced

,

!

inspections were conducted by NRC Region I specialists to assess aspects of the security

,

i

program and the licensed operator requalification training program. The enclosed report

presents the results of these inspections.

l

Routine operation and maintenance activities observed during this inspection period were

conducted in a safe manner. The security program attributes inspected were found to

_ meet NRC requirements and corrective actions involving the perimeter intrusion detection

>

i

system and access control were effective. The licensed operator requalification exams

reviewed were acceptable and the training staff objectively assessed operator performance.

l

[

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practices," a copy of this letter

and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

Sincerely,

Original Signed By:
