Dear Mr. Justin:
On November 17, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed onsite inspection activities for April through November 2022, at the permanently shutdown Duane Arnold Energy Center (DAEC) in Palo, Iowa. The purpose of the inspection was to determine whether decommissioning activities were conducted safely and in accordance with NRC requirements. The enclosed report presents the results of this inspection, which were discussed with Mr. and other members of your staff on November 17, 2022.
During the inspection period, the NRC inspector reviewed the following aspects of onsite activities: safety reviews, design changes and modifications; problem identification and resolution; fire protection; decommissioning performance; occupational radiation exposure; radiological surveys; radioactive waste treatment, effluent, and environmental monitoring; and waste management and transportation. The inspection consisted of an examination of activities at the site as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the enclosed report. Within these areas, the inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures and representative records, reviewing work activities and interviews with personnel.
Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC did not identify any violations.
