UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION III 2443 WARRENVILLE ROAD, SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 September 4, 2012 Mr. Larry Weber Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Indiana Michigan Power Company Nuclear Generation Group One Cook Place Bridgman, MI 49106
SUBJECT:
MID-CYCLE ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2
Dear Mr. Weber:
On August 8, 2012, the NRC completed its mid-cycle performance review of D.C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. This assessment reflects the integration of the Security Cornerstone into Inspection Manual Chapter 0305, Operating Reactor Assessment Program.
The NRC determined the performance at D.C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through December 31, 2013.
Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan.
The inspections listed during the last 9 months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the end-of-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes. This inspection plan does not include security related inspections, which will be sent via separate, non-publicly available correspondence.
In addition to the ROP baseline inspections, inspections are planned for Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003, Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal; Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/177, Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems; TI 2515/182, Review of the Implementation of the Industry Initiative to Control Degradation of Underground Piping; TI 2515/187, Inspection of Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.3 Flooding Walk downs; TI 2515/188, Inspection of Near-Term
L. Weber Task Force Recommendation 2.3 Seismic Walk downs; Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) inspections: IP 60854.1, Preoperational Testing of ISFSIs at Operating Plants; IP 60855.1, Operation of an ISFSI at Operating Plants; and IP 60856.1, Review of 10 CFR 72.212(b) Evaluations at Operating Plants. In addition, a team inspection involving IP 71152B, Biennial Problem Identification and Resolution, is scheduled in 2013.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs ARules of Practice,@ a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Please contact me at 630-829-9619 with any questions you may have regarding this letter or the inspection plan.
Sincerely,
/RA/
