SUMMARY

OF RESULTS Byron SALP 5 incompasses activities in 17 functional areas during all, or part, of the 18 month assessment period. The licensee's performance was -

acceptable in the construction activities which continued from the previous assessment period. However, perfonnance in functional areas involving Unit 1 operations demonstrates significant weaknesses. Although the licensee is considered capable, continued management action is needed in order to assure acceptable performance.
