SUBJECT:

NRC GENERIC LETTER NO. 98 YEAR 2000 READINESS OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS AT NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS - NORTH ANNA POWER STATION,

- UNIT 1 AND UNIT 2 (TAC NOS. MA1861 AND MA1862)

Dear Mr. O'Hanlon:

The US NRC issued Generic Letter (GL) 98-01 to require that all holders of operating licenses .

for n'uclear power plants provide the following information regarding their programs, planned or  !

. implemented, to address the year 2000 (Y2K) problem in computer systems at their facilities: (1) written confirmation of implementation of the programs; and (2) written certification that the facilities are Y2K ready with regard to compliance with the terms and conditions of their licenses and NRC regulations.

t l

In August 1998, it was decided that the staff from the Instrumentations and Control Branch, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, would conduct audits of the licensee's plant-specific Y2K

! readiness program implementation. The purpose of the audit was to gather information on

! licensee Y2K programs and use the results to determine the need for additional action beyond that already taken. Twelve plants were chosen for the initial audit, and the North Anna Power Station (NAPS) was one of the three chosen from Region 2.

j~ The audit of NAPS took place on January 26,27, and 28,1999, at your offices in Glen Allen,

Virginia. The audit team's assessment of your Y2K project plan has identified that the plan is well-structured, well organized, and well implemented. The self-assessments were worthwhile and informative. The project is on schedule, and will be completed by July 1999, with the primary exception of items that can be remediated only during an outage.
