SUBJECT: PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1
INFORMATION REQUEST FOR NRC PERMANENT PLANT MODIFICATIONS
AND EVALUATION OF CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS
INSPECTION 05000440/2004010(DRS)
Dear Mr. Kanda:
On August 9, 2004, the NRC will begin the required biennial permanent plant modifications and
evaluation of changes, tests, and experiments inspection (MOD/50.59) at your Perry Nuclear
Power Plant, Unit 1. This inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC baseline
inspection procedures 71111.02 and 71111.17. The MOD/50.59 will be performed concurrent
with the biennial safety system design and performance capability inspection (SSD&PC). The
SSD&PC notification and information request was previously sent to you in a separate
correspondence dated May 20, 2004.
Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive for both
the NRC inspectors and the licensees staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the
site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for
documents needed to effectively plan and implement this inspection.
The documents requested for the MOD/50.59 have been divided into three groups. The first
group is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is adequately prepared for the
inspection. This information should be available to the Regional Office by no later than
July 19, 2004. The inspection team will review this information and, by August 4, 2004, will
request specific items that should be available for review when the team arrives on-site. The
second group of requested documents contains additional items that the team will review, or
need access to, during the inspection. Certain documents in Group II.(1) will be requested for
review in the Regional Office the week prior to the inspection. The remaining documents
should be available by the first day of the on-site inspection, August 9, 2004. The third group
lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified as a result of
the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector as the
information is generated during the inspection. It is important that all of these documents are
up to date and complete in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested
during the preparation and/or the on-site portions of the inspection.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. George M. Hausman. If there are questions about
the material requested, or the inspection, please contact Mr. Hausman at (630) 829-9743 or via
e-mail at gmh1@nrc.gov.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and
its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public
Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs
document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at

INSPECTION 05000440/2004010(DRS)
I. Information Requested for In-Office Preparation Week
The following information is requested by July 19, 2004, or sooner, to facilitate the

team will select specific items from the information requested below and submit a list to
your staff by August 4, 2004. We will request that certain items be made available to
the regional office during the week prior to the inspection. We request that the
remaining items selected from the lists be available and ready for review on the first day
of inspection. All requested information should cover the time frame from the last

modification or procedure to which the evaluation applies). The list should NOT
include any evaluations in which prior NRC approval was sought and obtained.
(3) List of all 10 CFR 50.59 changes that have been screened out as not requiring a
full evaluation involving: (a) calculations; (b) procedure revisions; (c) changes to
the facility (modifications); (d) non-routine operating configurations; or
(e) departures in methods of analyses.
The list should contain the number and a descriptive title of each document and
