Dear Mr. Vitale:

This letter is to request information to support our inspection of the Implementation of Mitigating Strategies and Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation Orders and Emergency Preparedness Communications/Staffing/Multi-Unit Dose Assessment Plans beginning September 26, 2016 at your Palisades Nuclear Plant. This inspection will be performed in accordance with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Temporary Instruction 2515/191.

In order to minimize the impact that the inspection has on the site and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a list of documents requested for the inspection. Please provide this information prior to September 9, 2016. 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 lead inspector for this inspection is Dr. Stuart Sheldon. We understand that our primary contact for this inspection is Mr. Jeff Erickson 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.

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.

A. Vitale 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 System (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).
