Dear Ms. Fili:
This letter confirms our plans, as discussed between members of our staffs, to hold a regulatory conference to discuss a finding preliminarily determined to be Greater-than-Green.
The details regarding the issue were conveyed to you in our letter dated December 8, 2014, and its accompanying inspection report. The meeting will begin at 1:00 p.m. Central Time on Wednesday, January 14, 2015, at the Region III NRC offices located at 2443 Warrenville Road, Suite 210, Lisle, IL 60532. This meeting is closed to the public because it will involve the discussion of security-related information.
The regulatory conference is being held to obtain information to assist the NRC in determining the security significance of the finding and apparent violation detailed in the above letter and inspection report. The conference will provide an opportunity for you to provide your perspective on the facts and assumptions used by the NRC to arrive at the finding, your assessment of the significance of the finding, your detailed corrective actions, including any root cause evaluation, and any other information that you believe the NRC should take into consideration in making an enforcement decision.
The NRC would appreciate receiving any supporting documents by no later than Monday, January 5, 2015, in order to make the conference more effective and efficient.
Following the conference, you will be advised by separate correspondence of the results of our deliberations on this matter.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records Systems (PARS) component of the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
