August 31, 2007 Mr. Barry S. Allen Site Vice President FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company Perry Nuclear Power Plant P. O. Box 97, 10 Center Road, A-PY-290 Perry, OH 44081-0097
SUBJECT:
MID-CYCLE PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND INSPECTION PLAN -
PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNIT 1
Dear Mr. Allen:
On August 14, 2007, the NRC staff completed its performance review of Perry for the first half of the calendar year 2007 assessment cycle. Our technical staff reviewed performance indicators (PIs) 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 security information. A separate letter designated and marked as Official Use Only - Security-Related Information will include the security cornerstone review and resultant inspection plan.
On May 1, 2007, the NRC staff completed an update of our assessment of the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. Our May 2, 2007, letter informed FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company that all actions had been completed for Perry to exit the Multiple/Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone column of the NRCs Action Matrix. Therefore, effective the second quarter 2007, the Perry plant exited the Multiple/Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone column and was placed in the Regulatory Response column, based on the White Emergency AC Power System mitigating systems performance index from January 2007. Regarding the White Performance Index, Region III conducted Supplemental Inspection 95001, "Inspection for One or Two White Inputs in a Strategic Performance Area," during the week of August 20 to assess the root cause analysis and implementation of corrective actions for the performance index. The results will be documented in a report within 30 days of the end of the supplemental inspection.
The enclosed inspection plan details the inspections, less those related to security, scheduled through December 31, 2008. 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. Of note, the plan includes a component design bases inspection scheduled for April 2008. The inspections scheduled within the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the end-of-cycle review.
B. Allen In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be made 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).
The NRC is currently evaluating the scope and frequency of all the baseline inspection procedures. If the results of the evaluation, or any other circumstances cause us to revise the inspection plan, we will contact you to discuss the change as soon as possible. Please contact Bruce Burgess at (630) 829-9629 with any questions you may have regarding this letter or the inspection plan.
Sincerely,
/RA/
