SUBJECT: ANNUAL PERFORMANCE*REVIEWAND INSPECTION PLAN

THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION UNIT1

(05000289/2010001 )

Dear Mr. Pardee,

On February 12,2010, the NRC staff completed its performance review of the Three Mile

Island Nuclear Generating Station (Three Mile Island) Unit 1. Our technical staff reviewed

performance indicators (Pis) for the most recent quarter and inspection results for the period

from January 1 through December 31, 2009. 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 Information" will include

the security cornerstone review and resultant inspection plan.

Overall, Three Mile Island Unit 1 operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety

and fully met all cornerstone objectives. Plant performance for the most recent quarter, as well

as for the first three quarters of the assessment cycle, 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 Pis 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, less those related to physical protection,

scheduled through June 30, 2011. 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 nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised

at the mid*cycle review.
