SUBJECT:

MIDCYCLE PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND INSPECTION PLAN -

DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT

Dear Mr. Keenan:

On August I O , 2006, the NRC staff completed its performance review of Diablo Canyon Power Plant for the first half of the calendar year 2006 assessment cycle. Our technical staff reviewed performance indicators for the most recent quarter and inspection results over the previous 12 months. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our assessment of your safety performance during this period and our plans for future inspections at your facility.

This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include physical protection information. A separate letter designated and marked as "Official Use Only - Security-Related Information" will include the physical protection review and resultant inspection plan.

Plant performance for the most recent quarter at Diablo Canyon Power Plant Units Iand 2 was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC's Action Matrix, based on all inspection findings being classified as having very low safety significance (Green) and all performance indicators indicating performance at a level requiring no additional NRC oversight (Green).

Therefore, we plan to conduct reactor oversight process (ROP) baseline inspections at your facility.

The enclosed inspection plan details the inspections, except those related to physical protection, scheduled through March 31,2008. In addition to baseline inspections, we plan to conduct the temporary instructions identified in the inspection plan. The inspection plan is provided to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues well in advance of inspector arrival onsite. Routine resident inspections are not listed due to their ongoing and continuous nature. The inspections in the last 9 months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the annual performance assessment review.

Pacific Gas and Electric Company Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.qov/readinq-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

If circumstances arise which cause us to change the inspection plan, we will contact you to discuss the change as soon as possible. Please contact me at (817) 860-8141 with any questions you may have regarding this letter or the inspection plan.

Sincerely, ba%$=--
