JOSEPH M. FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Johnson:
On the weeks of August 6 and August 20, 2007, the NRC will perform the bienniel baseline Identification and Resolution of Problems Inspection at the Farley Nuclear Plant (NRC Inspection Procedure 71152). Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your on-site resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. These documents should be provided prior to the inspection to ensure that the inspectors are adequately prepared. The inspectors will arrive on site to review the documents and become familiar with the site, personnel, procedures, etc. on July 17, 2007.
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 onsite portions of the inspection.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mr. Doug McKinney of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector Robert Carrion at (404) 562-4522 (rpc1@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 NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,
/RA/
