SUBJECT:
DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION FOR AN NRC TRIENNIAL BASELINE
COMPONENT DESIGN BASES INSPECTION (CDBI) INSPECTION REPORT
05000315/2010006; 05000316/2010006(DRS)
Dear Weber:
On August 16, 2010, the NRC will begin a triennial baseline Component Design Bases
Inspection (CDBI) at Donald C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. A team of six
inspectors will perform this 3-week inspection. This inspection will be performed in accordance
with NRC Baseline Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.21.
The CDBI focuses on components that have high risk and low design margins. The
components to be reviewed during this baseline inspection will be identified during an in-office
preparation week prior to the first week of the on-site inspection. In addition, a number of risk
significant operator actions and operating experience issues, associated with the component
samples, will also be selected for review.
The inspection will include three weeks on-site. The inspection team will consist of six NRC
inspectors, of which five will focus on engineering and one on operations. The current
inspection schedule is as follows:
On-site weeks: August 16 - 20, 2010;
August 30 through September 3, 2010; and
September 13 - 17, 2010.
The team will be preparing for the inspection, mainly during the week of August 9 - 13, 2010, as
discussed in the attached enclosure. A Region III Senior Reactor Analyst may accompany the
inspection team during the week of August 16 - 20, 2010, to review probabilistic risk
assessment data, and assist in identifying risk significant components, which will be reviewed
during the inspection.

Experience with previous baseline design inspections of similar depth and length has shown
that this type of inspection is extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the
licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive
inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed for the
inspection.
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 preparation and/or the on-site portions of
the inspection. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided electronically to the lead
inspector. The information request has been divided into three groups:
The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping activities.
This information should be provided to the lead inspector no later than June 28, 2010. By
July 8, 2010, the lead inspector will communicate the initial selected set of approximately 30
high-risk components.
The second group of documents requested is those items needed to support our in-office
preparation activities. This set of documents, including the calculations associated with the
initial selected components, should be provided to the lead inspector at the Regional Office
no later than August 3, 2010. During the in-office preparation activities, the team may
identify additional information needed to support the inspection.
The last group includes the additional information above as well as plant specific reference
material. This information should be available to the team onsite on August 16, 2010. It is
also requested that corrective action documents and/or questions developed during the
inspection be provided to the lead inspector as the documents are generated.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Andrew Dunlop. We understand that our licensing
contact for this inspection is Bob Niedzielski of your organization. If there are any questions
about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact the lead
inspector at (630) 829-9726 or via e-mail at andrew.dunlop@nrc.gov.
This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection
requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, control number 3150-
0011.
The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for
information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a
currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

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 NRCs document system
(ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the
