SUBJECT:
ARKANSAS NUCLEAR ONE, UNIT 1 - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION FOR AN NRC POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION FOR LICENSE RENEWAL
Dear Mr. Browning:
On April 8, 2013, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal for Unit 1. A team of two inspectors will perform this 1-week inspection in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71003. This inspection will focus on outage related activities to verify that license conditions added as part of your renewed license and a sample of license renewal commitments have been implemented.
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 information needed for 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. Insofar as possible this information should be provided electronically to the lead inspector. The information request has been divided into two groups:
The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping and in-office preparation activities. During the in-office preparation activities, the team will identify as much as possible the information and activities to be reviewed during the inspection. This information should be provided to the lead inspector by March 22, 2013.
The second group includes the additional information required for the team to review the selected activities. This information should be available to the team onsite April 8, 2013. It is also requested that corrective action documents and/or questions developed during the inspection be provided to the lead inspector as the documents are generated.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Greg Pick. We understand that our licensing contact for this inspection is Natalie Mosher of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact the lead inspector at (817) 200-1270 or via e-mail at greg.pick@nrc.gov.
