NRC Performance Goals

! Maintain safety and protect the environment

! Enhance public confidence

! Improve effectiveness, efficiency, and realism of processes and decision making

! Reduce unnecessary regulatory burden

Reactor Oversight Process Strategic Performance Areas Safety Cornerstones Performance Indicator Baseline Inspection Results Results Significance Significance Threshold Threshold Action Matrix Regulatory Response

Examples of Baseline Inspections

! Equipment Alignment ~92 hrs/yr

! Triennial Fire Protection ~200 hrs every 3 yrs

! Operator Response ~125 hrs/yr

! Emergency Preparedness ~80 hrs/yr

! Rad Release Controls ~100 hrs every 2 yrs

! Worker Radiation Protection ~100 hrs/yr

! Corrective Action Program ~200 hrs every 2 yrs

! Corrective Action Case Reviews ~60 hrs/yr

Significance Threshold Performance Indicators Green: Only Baseline Inspection White: May increase NRC oversight Yellow: Requires more NRC oversight Red: Requires more NRC oversight Inspection Findings Green: Very Low safety issue White: Low to moderate safety issue Yellow: Substantial safety issue Red: High safety issue

Action Matrix Concept Licensee Regulatory Degraded Multiple/Rep. Unacceptable Response Response Cornerstone Degraded Performance Cornerstone Increasing Safety Significance Increasing NRC Inspection Efforts Increasing NRC/Licensee Management Involvement Increasing Regulatory Actions

Purpose of Todays Meeting

! A public forum for discussion of the licensees performance

! NRC will address the licensee performance issues identified in the annual assessment letter

! Licensee will respond to the information in the letter and inform the NRC of new or existing programs to maintain or improve their performance

National Summary of Plant Performance Status at End of CY 2003 Licensee Response 75 Regulatory Response 22 Degraded Cornerstone 2 Multiple/Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone 3 Unacceptable 0 Total Units 102*

• Davis-Besse is in IMC 0350 process

! 1 White Performance Indicator

! There were no supplemental inspections at Fermi in 2003

Safety Significant Findings or PIs

! No greater than Green findings

! 1 White Performance Indicator L Safety System Unavailability - Emergency AC Power

Fermi 2 Major Activities (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2003)

! Refueling Outage in April 2003

! Blackout 2003 on August 14, 2003

! 11 Green findings & 1 Severity IV violation

! Problem Identification & Resolution Inspection

Fermi 2 Planned Inspection Activities (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2004)

! IP 95001 Supplemental Inspection for White PI planned for April 2004

! Refueling outage inspections planned to coincide with licensees refueling outage toward end 04

! Emergency preparedness exercise conducted in March

! No near term major team inspections planned Modifications inspection - October 04 Triennial Fire Protection - June 05

Fermi 2 Annual Assessment Summary January 1- December 31, 2003

! Detroit Edison operated Fermi 2 in a manner that preserved public health and safety

! All cornerstone objectives were met with only one White Performance Indicator (PI) identified (Safety System Unavailability, Emergency AC Power)

! NRC plans baseline inspections at Fermi for the remainder of the assessment period and a supplemental inspection for the White PI
