SUBJECT:
BIG ROCK POINT INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION INSPECTION REPORT 072-00043/08-01
Dear Mr. Schwarz:
On October 24, 2008, the NRC completed a routine inspection at the Big Rock Point Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The purpose of the inspection was to evaluate whether the facility was operating in accordance with NRC approved License Conditions and Technical Specifications, and to evaluate the biennial exercise of the Emergency Plan (EP). At the conclusion of the onsite inspection on October 24, 2008, the inspectors discussed the inspection findings with members of your staff.
The inspection consisted of review and evaluation of the radiation protection, surveillance and maintenance, environmental protection, fire protection and the observation and evaluation of the ISFSI EP exercise. Areas examined during the inspection consisted of observations of activities in progress, interviews with personnel, and a select review of procedures and representative records.
Based on the results of this inspection, the inspectors did not identify any violations of NRC requirements.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "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). The NRCs document system is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. We will gladly discuss any questions you may have regarding this inspection.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Christine A. Lipa, Chief Materials Control, ISFSI, and Decommissioning Branch
