ZION MASTER INSPECTION PLAN - FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2009

Dear Mr. Pardee:

In accordance with U.S. NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 2561, Decommissioning Power Reactor Inspection Program, the NRC Region III staff and management have developed a Master Inspection Plan (MIP) for the Zion Station. The plan is based on your current performance and schedule of significant decommissioning activities planned for the site from October 2008 through September 2009 (FY2009). The plan outlines how we intend to focus our Regional inspection resources to address significant ongoing decommissioning activities.

Because the FY2009 MIP is based, in part, on your proposed schedule of significant decommissioning activities for FY2009, the plan and the focus of NRC inspection activities may change to reflect a change in your planned decommissioning activities or your performance. In order to ensure that the FY2009 MIP remains current, we request that you keep the Materials Control, ISFSI, and Decommissioning Branch staff informed of any significant changes in your proposed schedule of decommissioning activities. You will be informed of any significant changes to the Zion FY2009 MIP.

We currently project the Region will conduct two inspections at Zion during FY2009. The inspection will be to observe activities involved in the safety of the spent fuel pool and related SAFESTOR activities. The following is a list of the inspection procedures we expect to use during our inspection. The specific procedures used during the inspection will depend on the specific decommissioning activities being conducted. Additional inspection procedures may be used or inspections conducted if decommissioning activities warrant.

Security and material control and accountability related inspection activities will be addressed in a separate MIP.
