SUBJECT:
VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Taber:
From October 26-30, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform an inspection at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant in accordance with NRC inspection procedure 60853, Onsite Fabrication of Components and Construction of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). 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. These documents identify the information that the inspector will need upon arrival at the site. 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 this inspection activity with your staff, and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Kevin Walden of your organization. Our inspection dates are subject to change based on your updated schedule of outage activities. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Robert Carrion at 404-997-4522, or Robert.Carrion@nrc.gov.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, of the NRC's "Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure," 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 NRCs 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).
Sincerely,
/RA/
