SUBJECT: FORT CALHOUN STATION - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION (NRC
INSPECTION REPORT 05000285/2013008) AND REQUEST FOR
INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Cortopassi:
On February 25, 2013, inspectors from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform
an Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0350 Team Inspection at Fort Calhoun Station, using
applicable portions of NRC Inspection Procedures 95003, Supplemental Inspection for
Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone, Multiple Degraded Cornerstones, Multiple Yellow Inputs or
One Red Input, and 92702, Followup on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations,
Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternative Dispute
Resolution Confirmatory Orders. This inspection supports the assessment and verification of
the issues described in the Restart Checklist enclosed in the Confirmatory Action Letter (CAL)
issued to Fort Calhoun Station on June 11, 2012, and any modifications thereof; and other
selected areas to inform the NRCs assessment of the safety, organizational, and programmatic
issues at the station.
This inspection is a part of the IMC 0350 oversight inspection activities. Experience has shown
that this inspection is a resource intensive inspection both for the NRC inspectors and your staff.
The inspection will include 2-weeks of onsite inspections by the team. The current inspection
schedule is as follows:
Preparation Week: February 4, 2013
Onsite weeks: February 25, 2013 and March 11, 2013
In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection,
we have enclosed a request for documents and resources needed for this 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 onsite portions of the
inspection.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand
that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Ms. Kelly Root. If there are any questions
about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Greg
Warnick, at (949) 492-2641 or email: greg.warnick@nrc.gov.
