UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION III 2443 WARRENVILLE ROAD, SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 March 4, 2011 Mr. Larry Weber Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Indiana Michigan Power Company Nuclear Generation Group One Cook Place Bridgman, MI 49106
SUBJECT:
ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR D. C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 (REPORT 05000315/2011001; 05000316/2011001)
Dear Mr. Weber:
On February 17, 2011, the NRC completed its end-of-cycle performance review of D. C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information. A separate letter will include the NRCs assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.
The NRC determined that overall, D. C. Cook Units 1 and 2 operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at D. C. Cook Units 1 and 2 during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC=s Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green).
Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility. In addition to the ROP baseline, inspections are planned for Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/179, Verification of Licensee Responses to NRC Requirement for Inventories of Materials Tracked in NSTS, TI 2515/177, Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems, and also Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI)
Inspections 60854.1, Preoperational Testing of ISFSIs at Operating Plants, 60855.1, Operation of an ISFSI at Operating Plants, and 60856.1, Review of 10 CFR 72.212(b)
Evaluations at Operating Plants.
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2012. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last 9 months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.

Weber In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC=s ARules of Practice,@ a copy of this letter will be 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).
