Subject: PALISADES SHUT DOWN FOR PLANNED MAINTENANCE OUTAGE              

Discussion:

On May 7, 1999, the Palisades Nuclear Plant shut down for a planned      
maintenance outage. The outage is scheduled to last 8 days and the plant 
is expected to startup on May 15, 1999. The scheduled major activities   
include: 1) replace the seal package on Primary Coolant Pump P-50A; 2)   
repair lube oil leaks on Primary Coolant Pumps P-50B and P-50D; 3) repair
Main Condenser tube leaks; and 4) repair position indicators on the      
Pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valves.                                

Regional Action:

The resident inspector observed selected portions of the shut down and   
will follow the safety and risk significant activities during the outage.
