SUBJECT:

UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN FORD NUCLEAR REACTOR MASTER INSPECTION PLAN FISCAL YEAR 2012

Dear Mr. Alexander:

In accordance with U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Inspection Manual, Chapter 2545, Research and Test Reactor Inspection Program, the NRC Region III staff and management have developed a Master Inspection Plan (MIP) for the Ford Nuclear Reactor.

The plan is based on your current performance and schedule of significant decommissioning activities planned for the site for the period of October 2011 through December 2012. The plan outlines how we intend to focus our regional inspection resources to address significant ongoing decommissioning activities.

Because this MIP is based, in part, on your proposed schedule of significant decommissioning activities for fiscal year (FY) 2012; the plan and focus of the NRC inspection activities may change to reflect a change in your planned decommissioning activities or your performance. In order to ensure that this MIP remains current, we request that you keep the Materials Control, ISFSI and Decommissioning Branch staff informed of any significant changes in your proposed schedule of decommissioning activities. You will be informed of any significant changes to the Ford Reactor Inspection Schedule.

We currently project the region will conduct approximately two inspections at the Ford Reactor through December 2012 to evaluate final status surveys and conduct confirmatory surveys if they are underway. The region will conduct approximately one inspection of routine activities if final status surveys do not start in FY 2012. The following is a list of the inspection procedures we expect to use during our inspections. The specific procedures used during each inspection will depend on the specific decommissioning activities being conducted.

Inspection Procedure Title IP 69013 Research and Test Reactor Decommissioning IP 83801 Inspection of Final Surveys of Permanently Shutdown Reactors
