Dear Mr. Necci:

This letter transmits the results of an NRC inspection at the Northeast Utilities (NU) Millstone -

Overall, our inspection found that you have made significant improvement in the fire protection

program for Unit 2. Specifically, we noted improved inspection procedures and acceptance

criteria for fire barrier penetration seals, improved procedures for post-fire shutdown activities,

and improved audits of the fire protection program. Based on the noted improvements, we are

closing SIL ltem 21 with this inspection.

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