SUBJECT: DONALD. C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - REQUEST

FOR INFORMATION FOR AN NRC PILOT DESIGN BASES INSPECTION ON

THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALIFICATION

PROGRAM INSPECTION REPORT 05000315/2016008; 05000316/2016008

Dear Mr. Weber:

On May 9, 2016, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin the pilot program

portion of the triennial baseline Design Bases Inspection (DBI) at Donald C. Cook Nuclear

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

Baseline Inspection Procedure 71111.21N.

The inspection will focus on the implementation of the Environmental Qualification (EQ)

Program. The EQ components to be reviewed during this baseline inspection will be identified

during the in-office preparation week that occurs prior to the first onsite inspection week.

The inspection will include a bagman trip to support selection of components and one week

of onsite inspection. The inspection team will consist of three NRC inspectors. The current

inspection schedule is as follows:

  • Bagman trip onsite week: March 29 - 30, 2016
  • Inspection onsite week: May 9 - 13, 2016

The team will be preparing for the inspection, mainly during the week of May 2 - 6, 2016, as

discussed in the enclosure.

Experience with previous baseline design inspections of similar depth and length has shown

that this type of inspection is extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the

licensee staff. 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.

L. Weber -2-

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. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided

electronically to the lead inspector. The information request has been divided into four groups:

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

activities. This information should be provided to the lead inspector no later than

March 1, 2016. By March 15, 2016, the lead inspector will communicate the

initial selected set of approximately 12 EQ components.

  • The second group of documents requested is those items needed to support the

bagman trip. This set of documents should be available to the lead inspector onsite

on March 29, 2016.

  • The third group of documents requested is those items needed to support our in-

office preparation activities for the selected set of 6 - 9 EQ components. This set of

documents should be provided to the lead inspector at the Regional Office no later

than April 27, 2016. During the in-office preparation activities, the team 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 to the team onsite on

May 9, 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 Mr. Andrew Dunlop. We understand that our licensing

contact for this inspection is Mr. Rick Wynegar 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) 829-9726, or via e-mail at Andrew.Dunlop@nrc.gov.

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 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public

Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy

of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public

inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS)

I. Information Requested Prior to the Onsite Information Gathering/Bagman Week

The following information is requested by March 1, 2016, or sooner, to facilitate

inspection preparation. If you have any questions regarding this information, please

call the team leader as soon as possible. (Please provide the information electronically

in pdf files, Excel, or other searchable formats, preferably on some portable electronic

media (e.g., CD-ROM, DVD, etc.). The portable electronic media should contain

descriptive names, and be indexed and hyperlinked to facilitate ease of use.

Information in lists should contain enough information to be easily understood

by someone who has knowledge of light water reactor technology).
