SUBJECT:
ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR MILLSTONE POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3 (REPORTS 05000336/2023006 AND 05000423/2023006)
Dear Eric Carr:
The U.S Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Millstone Power Station (Millstone), Units 2 and 3, reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. The NRC concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety. The baseline inspection program was completed at your facility as defined in Inspection Manual Chapter 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase.
The NRC determined the performance at Millstone, Units 2 and 3, during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column (Column 1) of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix in Inspection Manual Chapter 0305, Operating Reactor Assessment Program, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e.,
Green), and all PIs were within the expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.
Although plant performance was within the Licensee Response Column (Column 1), the NRC has not yet finalized the issues identified during the Special Inspection that was established to assess the circumstances surrounding a security event that occurred on November 8, 2023, as documented in SPECIAL INSPECTION REPORT 05000336/2023440 AND 05000423/2023440.
The final safety significance determination may affect the NRCs assessment of plant performance and the enclosed inspection plan.
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through December 31, 2025.
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. 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 addition to baseline inspections, the NRC will implement Inspection Procedure 71003, Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal Phase 1 and 2, at your facility.
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 website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Please contact me at (610) 337-5205 with any questions you have regarding this letter.
Sincerely, Matt R. Young, Chief Projects Branch 2 Division of Operating Reactor Safety
