PLANT PERFORMANCE REVIEW (PPR) - ROBINSON

Dear Mr. Keenan:

On October 17, 1997,-the NRC staff completed the semiannual Plant Performance Review (PPR) of Robinson Nuclear Plant. The staff conducts these reviews for all operating nuclear power plants to develop an integrated understanding of safety performance. The results are used by NRC management to facilitate planning and allocation of inspection resources. The PPR for Robinson involved the participation of all technical divisions in evaluating inspection results and safety performance information for the period March 1997 to October, 1997. PPRs provide NRC management with a current summary of licensee performance and serve as inputs to the NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) and Senior Management Meeting (SMM) reviews.

This letter advises you of our planned inspection effort resulting from the Robinson PPR review and the general time frame of planned inspections plus the exact dates of team inspections. It is provided to minimize the resource impact on your staff and to allow for scheduling conflicts and personnel availability to be resolved in advance of inspector arrival onsite. The enclosure details our inspection plan for the next six (6) months. Individual inspections are identified by the month(s) in which we intend to conduct the inspection. Exact dates are not provided for non-team inspections because experience has proven that we must often change dates as the result of higher priority requirements and conflicts at your site or other sites. You will be contacted 3-6 weeks prior to individual inspections to confirm dates. The rationale or basis for each inspection outside the core inspection program is provided so that you are aware of the reasons for emphasis in these program areas. Resident inspections are not listed due to their ongoing and continuous nature.

The NRC's general policy for reactor inspections is that each inspection shall be announced, except when announcing the inspection could reasonably compromise the objectives of the inspectors. Therefore, some specific inspections, such as in the security and radiological protection areas, may not be announced.

As part of the regional initiative inspection program, we plan to conduct followup inspections of fire barrier penetration seal issues during the next 6 months. The issues are discussed in Information Notice (IN) 88-04, "Inadequate Qualification and Documentation of Fire Barrier Penetration 9712040094 971117 PDR ADOCK 05000261 0

PDR 4

CP&L 2

Seals." and IN 88-56, "Potential Problems with Silicone Foam Fire Barrier Penetration Seals." The specific plants that will be inspected have not yet been determined. We will notify you separately if the inspections are scheduled at your facility in the next 6 months.

We will inform you of any changes to the inspection plan. If you have any questions, please contact me at 404-562-4540.

Sincerely, Milton B. Shymlock, Chief Reactor Projects Branch 4 Division of Reactor Projects Docket No. 50-261 License No. DPR-23
