UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 475 ALLENDALE ROAD KING OF PRUSSIA, PENNSYLVANIA 19406-1415 September 1, 20II Mr. Michael J. Pacilio Senior Vice President, Exelon Generation Company, LLC President and Chief Nuclear Officer, Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Rd.

SUBJECT:
MID-CYCLE LETTER FOR PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION (05000277 1201 1006 and 0500027 81201 1 006)
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On August 9, 2011, the NRC completed its mid-cycle performance review of the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS) Units 2 and 3. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (Pls) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from July 1,2010, through June 30, 2011. 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 the NRC's assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.
The NRC determined the performance at Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3 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 Pls 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 lists the inspections scheduled through December 31,2012.
Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan.
The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the end-of-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. In addition to the baseline inspection program, we plan to conduct Inspection Procedure (lP) 71003, "Post-Approval Site Inspection For License Renewal." From July 1, 2010, to June 30, 2011, the NRC issued one severity level lV (SLIV) traditional enforcement non-cited violation associated with a former contract employee failing to provide information about a positive fitness-for-duty test (ML102590516 and ML103140643)1. The NRC followed-up on this non-cited violation during the Biennial Problem ldentification and Resolution Team lnspection completed on August 12, 2011. The results of this inspection will be documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000277 &
I Designation in parenthesis refers to an ADAMS accession number. Documents referenced in this letter are publicly available using the accession number in ADAMS.
M. Pacilio 28812011010. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.
ln the days following the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in Japan, the Commission directed the staff to establish a senior-level agency task force to conduct a methodical and systematic review of the NRC's processes and regulations to determine whether the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NRC has since completed Temporary Instruction (Tl) 183, "Follow-up to Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Station Fuel Damage Event," and Tl-184, "Availability and Readiness lnspection of Severe Accident Management Guidelines (SAMGS)," at your facility. Results of these inspections can be found here:
http://www.nrc.qovliapan/iapan-activities.html. Additionally, on May 11,2011, the agency issued NRC Butletin 2011-01, "Mitigating Strategies," to confirm compliance with Order EA-02-026, subsequently imposed license conditions, and 10 CFR 50.54(hhx2), and to determine the status of licensee mitigating strategies programs. On July 12,2011, the NRC's Task Force made its recommendations to the Commission in its report, "Recommendations for Enhancing Reactor Safety in the 21st Century: The Near-Term Task Force Review of lnsights from the Fukushima DaiichiAccident." The NRC is currently reviewing the Task Force's recommendations to determine what additional actions may be warranted.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules 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). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://Www.nrc.qovlreading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
