SUMMARY

OF SITE AUDIT TO SUPPORT REVIEW OF LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION OF ARKANSAS NUCLEAR ONE, UNIT 2 An environmental review team consisting of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and contractors from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) participated in a site audit at Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2 (ANO-2) on February 3 through February 4, 2004, to support the review of the ANO-2 license renewal application. The team consisted of six PNNL contractors and four NRC staff members. The primary goal of the site visit was to review documentation, gather information to ensure that environmental requirements of license renewal as codified in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 51 (10 CFR Part 51) are met, and to interface with officials in State and local government permitting and resource agencies to obtain related information. Attachment 1 is the list of NRC, PNNL, and Entergy Operations Inc. (Entergy) representatives that participated in the audit. Attachment 2 is a table of documents provided to the staff by Entergy to assist the staff in its review of the ANO-2 Environmental Report. These documents have been made publicly available, and can be found at the Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) accession numbers listed in Attachment 2. ADAMS is accessible at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html, which provides access through the NRCs Public Electronic Reading Room (PERR) link.

Persons who do not have access to ADAMS, or who encounter problems in accessing the documents located in ADAMS, should contact the NRCs PDR Reference staff at 1-800-397-4209, or 301-415-4737, or by e-mail at pdr@nrc.gov.

The entire team participated in an overview meeting and site tour with Entergy staff on Tuesday, February 3, 2004, before the environmental scoping meetings held later that day in Russellville, Arkansas. Entergys presentation provided a brief overview of the layout of the plant, followed by a guided site tour, focusing on areas relevant to the environmental review.

These areas included the intake and discharge structures and canals, independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI), meteorological tower, and chemical treatment ponds. During the rest of the site audit, review team members broke off into smaller groups with Entergy representatives with corresponding environmental disciplines. These groups participated in various activities, including a tour of the radioactive waste facility and automobile tours of the transmission line corridors. Entergy provided a brief presentation on their new and significant information identification process to the entire environmental review team. No significant new information was identified.

In addition, during the site audit, review team members met offsite with staff representing state and local government agencies, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Research Station Archeologist at Arkansas Tech University. No major problem areas were identified during these discussions.

2 At the conclusion of the site visit, the NRC staff and PNNL contractors participated in a summary exit meeting with Entergy representatives. The staff indicated that Entergy provided an informative and well-represented site visit for the environmental review team. The NRC staff indicated that it did not identify any issues during its site visit or the visits offsite with Federal, State, and local agencies. However, it further indicated that the review was ongoing, and that any additional information necessary to support the review would be formally requested as a request for additional information.
