SUBJECT: CALLAWAY PLANT, UNIT 1 - NOTIFICATION OF EVALUATIONS OF CHANGES,

TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS, AND PERMANENT PLANT MODIFICATIONS

INSPECTION (05000483/2016007) AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Diya:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

staff will conduct the baseline inspection of changes, tests, experiments, and permanent

plant modifications at your Callaway Plant, Unit 1, from June 13, 2016, to July 1, 2016.

The inspection will consist of three reactor inspectors from the NRCs Region IV office for

two on-site weeks. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection

Procedure 71111.17T, Evaluations of Changes, Tests, and Experiments and Permanent

Plant Modifications.

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 on-site resources and to ensure a

productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection.

Please note that the documents are requested to be provided by June 6, 2016. Upon review of

these documents, the inspectors will select additional documentation for review upon arrival. 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.

We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand

that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mr. Steve Petzel of your licensing

organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please

contact the lead inspector, Gerond A. George, by telephone at 817-200-1562 or by e-mail at

Gerond.George@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 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs 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 NRC's document

system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-
