SUBJECT: CLINTON POWER STATION INFORMATION REQUEST FOR AN NRC
TRIENNIAL PERMANENT MODIFICATION AND 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59)
BASELINE INSPECTION 05000461/2012007(DRS)
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On June 25, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Modification
and 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59) baseline inspection at the Clinton Power Station. This
inspection will be performed in accordance with the NRC baseline Inspection Procedure
IP 71111.17. The on-site portion of the inspection will take place on June 25-29 and July 9-13.
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 to
the Regional Office no later than May 1, 2012. The inspection team will review this information
by May 14, 2012, and will request specific items that should be available for review by
June 11, 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.
The remaining documents should be available by the first day of the on-site inspection,
June 25, 2012.
The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues
identified as a result of the inspection. 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 on-site portions of the inspection.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. Mohammad Munir. We understand that our
regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. Ron Frantz of your organization. If there are any
questions about the inspection or the materials requested, please contact the lead inspector at
(630) 829-9797 or via e-mail at mohammad.munir@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
Public Electronic Reading Room).
