Dear Mr. Kingsley:

On December 7,1998, the NRC completed an inspection at your Braidwood Units 1 and 2

reactor facilities. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection. During the

7-week period covered by this inspection, your conduct of activities was generally characterized

- by safety-conscious operations, sound engineering and maintenance practices, and careful

radiological work controls.

.

Particularly notable was the stations excellent performance throughout the steam generator

replacement project. Your staff effectively incorporated lessons learned from Byron Station's

- steam generator replacement and consistently demonstrated a strong safety focus during all

,

. aspects of the replacement project.

'

,

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

enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

Sincerely,

/s/ Michael J. Jordan
