UPDATED INSPECTION PLAN FOR ST. LUCIE PLANT, UNIT 1 AND UNIT 2 -
(REPORT 05000335/2020005 AND 05000389/2020005)
Dear Mr. Moul:
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2022 for St. Lucie Plant Unit 1 and Unit 2. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. You should be aware that the agency is pursuing potential changes to the Reactor Oversight Process (ROP),
including changes to engineering inspections (SECY-18-0113, Recommendations for Modifying the Reactor Oversight Process Engineering Inspections), and other changes to the baseline inspection program described in SECY-19-0067, Recommendations for Enhancing the Reactor Oversight Process. Should these changes to the ROP be implemented, the engineering and other region-based inspections are subject to change in scope, as well as schedule. The inspections listed during the last twelve months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.
In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE), the NRC is adjusting inspection plans and schedules in order to safeguard the health and safety of both NRC and licensee staff while still effectively implementing the ROP. Each planned inspection is being carefully reviewed in order to determine if any portions of the inspection can be performed remotely, determine how best to perform on-site portions to minimize personnel health risks, and adjust inspection schedules if needed. This is done in accordance with guidance contained in the May 28, 2020 memo, Inspection Guidance During Transition From COVID-19 Mandatory Telework (ADAMS Accession No. ML20141L766). For inspections requiring extensive coordination with offsite organizations, such as evaluated emergency preparedness exercises, NRC guidance and frequently asked questions for security and emergency preparedness can be found here: https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/covid-19/security-ep/. Similarly, the NRC has developed guidance if force-on-force inspections cannot be completed as scheduled due to an emergency, such as the COVID-19 PHE. These changes help ensure the health and safety of both NRC and licensee staff while maintaining the NRCs important safety and security mission during the COVID-19 PHE. The attached inspection plan is accurate on the date of issuance but remains subject to change based on approval of potential exemption requests or other changes needed due to changing conditions in the COVID-19 PHE. NRC staff will contact your appropriate regulatory affairs staff in order to coordinate inspection planning and scheduling. The NRC will also be performing baseline inspections of licensee cyber security programs. The specific schedule and procedure to be used for these inspections is being developed by the NRC staff. The staff expects to communicate the schedule for these inspections to each utility separately.
Additionally, during this period the NRC will schedule an additional inspection per a revised version Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/194, Inspection of the Licensees Implementation of Industry Initiative Associated with the Open Phase Condition Design Vulnerability in Electrical Power Systems (NRC Bulletin 2012-01), for any sites who elect to implement the guidance of the Industry Initiative on Open Phase Condition, Revision 3, (ADAMS Accession No.
ML19163A176), which included an option for relying on annunciation and operator manual actions instead of automatic protective features to isolate a power supply affected by an open phase condition. Licensees will be individually notified when the NRC schedules these inspections.
The NRC previously identified a cross-cutting theme in the Safety Conscious Work Environment (SCWE) area. This criterion was met because the NRC issued a severity level II enforcement action that involved discrimination. Specifically, on September 12, 2019, a notice of violation (NOV) was issued to St. Lucie (ADAMS Accession No. ML19234A332) due to deliberate discrimination against a contract employee for engaging in a protected activity. The NOV was tracked in inspection report 05000335,05000389/2019004 (ADAMS Accession No.
ML20044C800) and subsequently closed in inspection report 05000335,05000389/2020002 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20044C800). In accordance with, Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0305 (ADAMS Accession No. ML19256A191), SCWE-related issues are monitored for an 18-month period to assess the effectiveness of the corrective actions. The cross-cutting theme will be closed pending no additional SCWE related issues during the assessment period, which concludes June 30, 2021. The NRC will continue to monitor your staffs effort and progress in addressing the theme until the theme criterion is no longer met.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
