SUBJECT:

KEWAUNEE POWER STATION - NOTICE OF REGULATORY CONFERENCE

Dear Mr. Christian:

This letter confirms our plans as discussed between members of our staffs to hold a regulatory conference to discuss findings preliminarily determined to be Greater-than-Green.

The details regarding the issues were conveyed to you in our letter dated March 11, 2008, and its accompanying inspection report. The meeting will begin at 1:30 p.m. CDT on Tuesday, May 6, 2008, at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region III office, 2443 Warrenville Rd, Suite 210, Lisle, IL 60532. This meeting is closed to the public.

The regulatory conference is being held to obtain information to assist the NRC in determining the safety significance of the findings and apparent violations detailed in the above letter and inspection report. The conference will provide an opportunity for you to provide your perspective on the facts and assumptions used by the NRC to arrive at the findings, your assessment of the significance of the findings, your detailed corrective actions, including any root cause evaluation, and any other information that you believe the NRC should take into consideration in making an enforcement decision.

The NRC would appreciate receiving any supporting documents by no later than April 29, 2008, in order to make the conference more effective and efficient.

Following the conference, you will be advised by separate correspondence of the results of our deliberations on this matter.

D. Christian In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, and your response (if any), will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
