Mr. Fadi Diya, Senior Vice President

and Chief Nuclear Officer

SUBJECT: MID-CYCLE ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR CALLAWAY PLANT

(REPORT 05000483/2016005)

Dear Mr. Diya:

On August 9, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed its mid-cycle

performance review of Callaway Plant. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly

performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from

July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your

facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility.

The NRC determined that overall, Callaway Plant operated in a manner that preserved public

health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at

Callaway Plant during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the

NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very

low (i.e., Green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the

nominal, expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline

inspections at your facility.

The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2018. Routine

inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The

inspections listed during the second half of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised

at the end-of-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the

resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will contact

you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances

warrant any changes. This inspection plan does not include security related inspections, which

will be sent via separate, non-publicly available correspondence.

In response to the accident at Fukushima, the Commission issued Order EA-12-049, Order

Modifying Licenses with Regard to Requirements for Mitigation Strategies for Beyond-Design-

Basis External Events, and Order EA-12-051, Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to

Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation. The NRC conducted audits of licensee efforts

towards compliance with these Orders, and the information gathered will aid staff in

development of the ultimate Safety Evaluation for the site. After the NRC staff receives the

Final Compliance letter for the site, the Safety Evaluation will be issued. Then, the NRC staff

F. Diya -2-

will confirm through inspections the full implementation of the orders mentioned above by

performing Temporary Instruction 191, Inspection of the Implementation of Mitigation Strategies

and Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation Orders and Emergency Preparedness

Communication/Staffing/Multi-Unit Dose Assessment Plans.

In Staff Requirements Memorandum - SECY 16-0009, Recommendations Resulting from the

Integrated Prioritization and Re-Baselining of Agency Activities, the Commission approved the

NRC staff recommendation to discontinue the formal mid-cycle assessment process beginning

in calendar year 2017. This will be the final mid-cycle assessment letter. The staff will continue

to conduct quarterly assessment meetings and communicate changes in the assessment of

licensee performance in accordance with the guidance in Inspection Manual Chapter 0305,

Operating Reactor Assessment Program.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRCs

Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the

NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of

NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is

accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public

Electronic Reading Room).

Please contact me at 817-200-1141 with any questions you have regarding this letter.

Sincerely,

/RA/
