SUBJECT:
LASALLE COUNTY STATION - NOTIFICATION OF AN NRC TRIENNIAL PERMANENT MODIFICATION AND 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59) BASELINE INSPECTION 05000373/2012007; 05000374/2012007(DRS)
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On September 4, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a modification and 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59) baseline inspection at the LaSalle County 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 September 4 - 7 and September 17 - 21.
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 July 26, 2012. The inspection team will review this information by August 10, 2012, and will request specific items that should be available for review by August 24, 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, September 4, 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.
M. Pacilio The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. Alan Dahbur. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. Steve Shields of your organization.
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).
Sincerely,
