Dear Mr. McGaha:

From February 10 to 13,1998, an announced, emergency preparedness inspection wws

conducted at your River Bend Station reactor facility. The enciesed report presents the scope

and results of that inspection.

The inspection included implementation of your emergency plan and procedures during your

biennial smergency preparedness exercise. Overall, performance during the bierinial exercise

was generally very good; however, one exercise weakness was identified. The exercise

weakness involved the operations support center's failure to promptly and properly dispatch

inplant repair teams.

Exercise weaknesses, according to 10 CFR Part 50, -

i.iV.F.2.g, are inspection

findings that need to be corrected by the licensee. Tturwoit.. you are requested to provide this

offica with a description of your corrective measures and your schedule for completing these

f.

actions within 30 days after receipt of this letter.

In addition to the exercise weakness, an unresolved item was identified conceming whether

Regulatory Guide 8.13 trainin0 (protection of the embryo / fetus) was conducted in cecordance

with the Updated Safety Analysis Report. This matter is discussed in Section P5 of the enclosed

report. The item is unresolved pending determination of whether the Regulatory Guide 8.13

subject matter was covered as part of other required training.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of tha NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its

enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

Should you have any questions conceming this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them

with you.

Sincerely,
