3UBJECT: NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-219/97-04

Dear Mr. Roche:

On July 6,1997, the NRC completed an integrated inspection at the Oyster Creek reactor

,

l

facility. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.

l

During the six-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities at

-

the Oyster Creek facility was generall'

haracterized by safety-conscious operations,

i

sound engineering and maintenance p .tices, and careful radiological work controls.

+

j

However, two errors occurred during th. : inspection, both by licensed operators during

l

routine activities, and are representative of a continuing adverse performance trend. A

l

management meeting to discuss your current and planned corrective actions for this

'

l

adverse human performance trend was held on July 11,1997,

i

'

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

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

We appreciate your cooperation.

Sincerely,

-
