SUBJECT:
OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION - EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Batson:
From September 16 - 20, 2013, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Emergency Preparedness inspection at the Oconee Nuclear Station. The inspection will evaluate activities in the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedures 71114.02 - Alert and Notification System (ANS) Evaluation, 71114.03 - Emergency Response Organization (ERO) Staffing and Augmentation System, 71114.05 - Maintenance of Emergency Preparedness, and the Emergency Preparedness Sections of 71151, Performance Indicator Verification.
Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents 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 the 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 Judy Smith of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Mark E. Speck at (404) 997-4759 (Mark.Speck@nrc.gov) or the Chief, Plant Support Branch 1, Brian Bonser at (404) 997-4653.
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, under 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.
