UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD Before Administrative Judges:

Lawrence G. McDade, Chairman Dr. Kaye D. Lathrop Dr. Richard E. Wardwell In the Matter of Docket Nos. 50-247-LR and 50-286-LR ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS, INC. ASLBP No. 07-858-03-LR-BD01 (Indian Point Nuclear Generating Units 2 and 3) April 5, 2012 NOTICE (Scheduling Site Visit and Pre-Hearing Conference Call)

This Licensing Board will conduct a visit to Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc.s Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC) (which contains Indian Point Units 2 and 3) in Buchanan, New York on Tuesday, May 8, 2012, beginning at 8:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). The purpose of the visit is to allow the Board to view areas of the site that it believes might be relevant to the admitted contentions in this proceeding.

The Board plans to conduct a conference call with the parties April 16, 17, or 18, 2012, to discuss logistics and arrangements associated with this activity. The Board requests that each participant in this proceeding inform the Boards law clerk, Anne Siarnacki (anne.siarnacki@nrc.gov or (301) 415-5833), no later than Wednesday, April 11, 2012, of:

(1) the dates and times on April 16, 17, or 18 in which no representative from their respective organizations will be able to participate in the call, and (2) how many phone lines their respective organizations will be using during the call. Once a mutually agreeable time has been determined, the Board will issue instructions on how to participate in the conference via a telephone bridge line.

The purpose of this site visit is to gain an appreciation for the physical configuration of the key plant components and to focus on specific elements discussed in the contentions that are external to the reactors at Indian Point. To meet these goals, the Board wishes to observe the following during the site visit and expects to discuss them during the teleconference:

1. An overall external layout of the plant to discern the relative locations of the following:

a. Reactor buildings

b. Diesel generator building(s)

c. Condensate storage tank(s)

d. Spent fuel pool building(s) including (if accessible) observations of the spent fuel pools themselves

e. Independent spent fuel storage installations (ISFSIs)

f. Intake and outflow structures;

2. A general location of safety-related buried pipes and tanks external to plant buildings;

3. A sample of external access vaults for viewing non-environmentally qualified inaccessible cables;

4. External vault/pit, surface water, and groundwater monitoring locations;

5. A topographic pathway from the spent fuel pools to the Hudson River;

6. External transformers important for plant safety; and

7. Exterior views of presently operational Indian Point Unit 1 facilities.

The Board encourages participants to suggest during the conference call any additional features at IPEC that might be relevant to the admitted contentions in this proceeding.

After the pre-hearing conference call, the Board will issue a notice with instructions for participation in the site visit.
