In response to GL 97-04, you provided letters dated October 23,1997, and January 5,1998, for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Unit 1 and 2. In response to a request for additional information dated May 19,1998, you submitted a letter on June 15,1998. These submitta;s I

provided the information requested by GL 97-04. The staff has reviewed your response and has concluded that all requested information has been provided; therefore we consider GL 97-04 closed for your facility.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (301) 415-1355.
