NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

LISLE, IL 60532-4352

November 13, 2014

Mr. Larry Weber

Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer

Indiana Michigan Power Company

Nuclear Generation Group

One Cook Place

Bridgman, MI 49106

SUBJECT: D. C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NOTIFICATION OF

NRC TRIENNIAL HEAT SINK PERFORMANCE INSPECTION AND REQUEST

FOR INFORMATION INSPECTION 05000315/2015002; 05000316/2015002

Dear Mr. Weber:

On Monday, January 26, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin the

on-site portion of the Triennial Heat Sink Performance Inspection at your Donald C. Cook

Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. This inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC

baseline inspection procedure (IP) 71111.07, Heat Sink Performance.

In order to minimize the impact that the inspection has on the site and to ensure a productive

inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspection. The

documents have been divided into three groups.

  • The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping activities. This

information should be available to the lead inspector no later than December 8, 2014. By

December 12, 2014, the lead inspector will communicate the initial selected set of

approximately 2-3 risk significant heat exchangers.

  • The second group is needed to support our in-office preparation activities. This set of

documents, including the calculations associated with the selected heat exchangers,

should be available at the Regional Office no later than January 12, 2015. This information

should be separated for each selected component, especially if provided electronically

(e.g., folder with component name that includes calculations, condition reports,

maintenance history, etc). During the in-office preparation activities, the inspectors may

identify additional information needed to support the inspection.

  • The last group includes the additional information above as well as plant specific reference

material. This information should be available onsite to the inspectors on January 26,

2015. It is also requested that corrective action documents and/or questions developed

during the inspection be provided to the inspector as the documents are generated.

L. Weber -2-

All requested documents are to be for the time period from the onsite inspection period back to

the documents that were provided in response to the previous heat sink performance

inspection. If no activities were accomplished in that time period, then the request applies to

the last applicable document in the previous time period. It is important that these documents

be as complete as possible, in order to minimize the number of documents requested during

the preparation week or during the on-site inspection.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Néstor J. Féliz Adorno. We understand that our

regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. S. Mitchell of your organization. If there are

questions about the material requested, or the inspection, please call Néstor J. Féliz Adorno at

(630) 829-9739. Please send the information to the following e-mail address

nestor.feliz-adorno@nrc.gov. A hard-copy or compact disc (CD) with the required information

is also an acceptable option.

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.

In accordance with Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) "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 System (PARS) component of

NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from

the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading

Room).
