Oyster Creek Assessment Results (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2005)

Plant performance for the most recent quarter was within the Regulatory Response column of the NRCs Action Matrix, based on one inspection finding being classified as having low to moderate safety significance (White) in the Emergency Planning (EP) Cornerstone and all PIs indicating performance at a level requiring no additional NRC oversight (Green).

Safety Significant Findings or PIs The White finding was documented in a letter dated January 9, 2006.

Oyster Creek staff did not recognize that plant parameters met emergency action level (EAL) thresholds during an event in August 2005.

May 2006, the NRC plans to conduct a supplemental inspection using NRC Inspection Procedure 95002.

3/4 This inspection will evaluate the effectiveness of Oyster Creeks corrective actions to address performance in the EP Cornerstone.

Safety Significant Findings or PIs Third quarter 2005, Oyster Creek was in the Degraded Cornerstone Column of NRCs Action Matrix.

3/4 Previously identified White inspection finding in the EP Cornerstone overlapping the current White finding.

3/4 The previously identified White finding involved an inadequate EP event classification procedure.

3/4 This finding was closed by a supplemental inspection using NRC Inspection Procedure 95001.

This report was issued on July 15, 2005.

Oyster Creek Inspection Activities (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2005)

The NRC closed the Problem Identification and Resolution substantive cross-cutting issue, which had been open for calendar year 2005.

3/4 Demonstrated timely and effective corrective actions following the implementation of new Corrective Action Program in June.

3/4 Findings not sharing a common performance theme.

Oyster Creek Annual Assessment Summary January 1 - December 31, 2005 z AmerGen operated Oyster Creek in a manner that preserved public health and safety.

z NRC plans baseline inspections at Oyster Creek for the remainder of the current assessment period and a supplemental inspection using NRC Inspection Procedure 95002.

z Oyster Creek was in the regulatory Response column for the fourth quarter of CY 2005.
