SUBJECT: FERMI POWER PLANT, UNIT 2 - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR AN NRC
TRIENNIAL PERMANENT MODIFICATIONS AND 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59)
BASELINE INSPECTION 05000341/2012-007(DRS)
Dear Mr. Davis:
On January 17, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a MOD/50.59
baseline inspection at the Fermi Power Plant, Unit 2. This inspection will be performed in
accordance with the NRC baseline Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.17. The onsite portion of
the inspection will take place on January 17 - 20 and January 30 thru February 3, 2012.
Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are 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
documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into three groups.
The first group of information is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is adequately
prepared for the inspection. This information should be made available via compact disc and
delivered to the regional office no later than November 18, 2011. The inspection team will
review this information by December 9, 2011, and will request specific items that should be
provided for review in the regional office by January 4, 2012.
The second group of requested documents contains additional items that the team will review,
or need access to, during the inspection. Certain documents contained within this group, i.e.,
Item (1), will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by January 4,
2012, as identified above. The remaining documents should be available by the first day of the
onsite inspection, January 17, 2012.
The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues
identified as a result of the inspection. The remaining documents in group three should be
available by the first day of onsite inspection, January 17, 2011. It is requested that this
information be provided to the lead inspector as the information is generated during 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
onsite portions of the inspection.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. Alan Dahbur. We understand that our regulatory
contact for this inspection is Mr. Joe Pendergast of your organization. If there are any
questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at
(630) 829-9810 or via e-mail at Alan.Dahbur@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
