SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50 70/98-01
Dear Mr. Stimmell,
On November 16-19,1998, the NRC conducted an inspection at your Vallecitos Nuclear
Center. The enclosed report presents the scope and results of that inspection.
Major activities reviewed as part of this inspection focused on your program to maintain the
.SAFSTOR condition of the General Electric Test Reactor (GETR), Vallecitos Boiling Water
' Reactor (VBWR) and ESADA Vallecitos Experimental Superheat Reactor (EVESR). A tour of
VBWR, GETR and EVESR was conducted to evaluate the structural condition of the facilities.
In addition to the Part 50 reactor licenses for the three shutdown facilities, a number of activities
were being performed at the Vallecitos site under Special Nuclear Material License SNM-960.
An inspection of the SNM-960 license was conducted during the same week as the reactor
inspection. The SNM 960 inspection report was issued as 70-754/98 02. - Common areas of
the two licenses, including the radiation safety program, emergency planning, radwaste
shipping, and environmental monitoring program, were inspected and documented in the SNM-
960 inspection report.
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).
Should you have any questions conceming this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them
with you.
Sincerely,
