' SUBJECT:
MONTICELLO NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. LO-263/97012(DRP)
Dear Mr. Wadley:
On August 29,1997, the NRC completed an inspection at your Monticello reactor facility.
The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
During the 6 week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities at the
Monticello facility was generally characterized by safety conscious operations, sound
engineering and maintenance practices, and careful radicbgical work controls. The
execution of the forced outage was commendable. No significant personnel errors were
identified. Your decision to extend the outage to replace faulty strainer pieces
demonstrated conservative decision making and a focus on as low as reasonably
achievable (ALARA) practices.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2,790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and
its enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
Sincerely,
Original signed by
