Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station

SUBJECT: DAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION; REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

FOR AN NRC POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION FOR LICENSE RENEWAL;

INSPECTION REPORT 05000346/2016007

Dear Mr. Boles:

On March 28, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Post-Approval

Site Inspection for License Renewal at your Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. This

inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003. This

inspection will focus on outage related activities to verify license conditions added as part of

your renewed license and a sample of license renewal commitments have been implemented.

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

both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed for the inspection. 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 on-site portions of

the inspection. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided electronically to the lead

inspector. The information request has been divided into two groups:

The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping and in-office

preparation activities. During the in-office preparation activities, the team will identify as

much as possible the information and activities to be reviewed during the inspection.

This information should be provided to the lead inspector by March 4, 2016.

The second group includes the additional information required for the team to review

the selected activities. This information should be available to the team on-site on

March 28, 2016. It is also requested that corrective action documents and/or questions

developed during the inspection be provided to the lead inspector as the documents are

generated.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Dr. Stuart Sheldon. We understand that our primary

contact for this inspection is Mr. Gerald Wolf, of your organization. If there are any questions

about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact the lead

inspector at (630) 829-9727, or via e-mail at Stuart.Sheldon@nrc.gov.

B. Boles
