Dear Mr. Randolph:

From February 2-6,1998, a special reactive inspection was conducted at your Callaway Plant

During the inspection, one violation was identified. This NRC identified violation involved the

failure to demonstrate that either train of the auxiliary / fuel building emergency filter system

j

Amendment 118. Technical Specification Amendment 118 was issued on November 13,1996,

was effective on issuance, and was required to be implemented within 30 days of issuance.

The violation is cited in the enclosed Notice of Violation (Notice) and the circumstances

surrounding this violation are described in detail in the enclosed report. The NRC has

concluded that information regarding the reason for the violation, and the corrective actions

taken to correet4he violation and prevent its recurrence, have already been adequately

,

addressed. Therefore, you are not required to respond to this violation unless the description in

this report does not accurately reflect your corrective actions or your position. In that case, or if

you choose to provide additional information, you should follow the instructions specified in the

enclosed notice.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Ru'es of Practice," a copy of this letter, its
