SUBJECT:

ARKANSAS NUCLEAR ONE, UNIT 1 INFORMATION REQUEST FOR AN NRC POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION (05000313/2014007) FOR LICENSE RENEWAL

Dear Mr. Browning:

On January 6, 2014, the NRC will begin a Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal at Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1. A team of inspectors will perform a 2-week Phase 2 inspection in accordance with the NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003. The onsite weeks include the week of January 6, 2014, and the week of January 27, 2014.

This inspection will evaluate whether license conditions added as part of the renewed license, license renewal commitments, selected aging management programs, and selected time-limited aging analyses are implemented in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 54, Requirements for the Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants.

In order to minimize the impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date and complete in order to lessen 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 by December 9, 2013.

Mr. Greg Pick will lead this inspection. We understand that our licensing contact is Ms. Natalie Mosher of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact Mr. Pick at (817) 200-1270 or via e-mail at Greg.Pick@nrc.gov.

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.

J. Browning 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 the 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,

/RA/
