SUBJECT: ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER - SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT (REPORT 05000400/2011001)

Dear Mr. Burton:

On February 9, 2011, the NRC staff completed its end-of-cycle performance review of the Shearon Harris Power Plant. 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 NRC's 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 NRC's assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan. The NRC determined that overall, Shearon Harris operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at Shearon Harris during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC's Reactor Oversight (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. The enclosed inspection plan details the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2012. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed in the last nine 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. We also plan on conducting several infrequently performed inspections which include: initial operator licensing examinations and TI 2515/177, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray System."
