UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION III 2443 WARRENVILLE RD. SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 December 21, 2016 Mr. Daniel G. Stoddard Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Innsbrook Technical Center 5000 Dominion Boulevard Glen Allen, VA 23060-6711

KEWAUNEE POWER STATION MASTER INSPECTION PLAN CALENDAR YEAR 2017

Dear Mr. Stoddard:

In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2561, Decommissioning Power Reactor Inspection Program, and IMC 2690, Inspection Program for Dry Cask Storage of Spent Reactor Fuel at Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations and for Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 71 Transportation Packagings, the NRC Region III staff developed a Master Inspection Plan (MIP) for the Kewaunee Power Station for calendar year 2017. The inspection plan is based on your current performance in executing the site decommissioning and Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) projects and your planned decommissioning and dry cask loading activities for the site in January through December 2017. The plan outlines how we intend to focus our regional inspection resources to provide oversight of decommissioning and dry cask loading activities.

The MIP is based, in part, on your proposed schedule of decommissioning and dry cask loading activities for calendar year 2017. As a result, the plan and the focus of inspection activities may change to reflect changes in your activities or performance. To ensure that this MIP remains current, we request that you keep the NRC Region III Materials Control, ISFSI, and Decommissioning Branch (MCID) staff informed of any significant changes in your proposed schedule of decommissioning and dry cask loading activities. You will be informed of any significant changes to our plans for inspections at the Kewaunee site.

Since the site initiated a transition to SAFSTOR in 2013, and those activities are expected to continue into 2017, the NRC regional office intends to perform inspections appropriate for a site in SAFSTOR. Since dry cask loading activities are expected to continue in 2017, the MIP also reflects our inspection scope for preoperational testing of an ISFSI and initial loading.

The following is a list of the routine inspection procedures we expect to use during our inspections. The procedures used during each inspection will depend on the specific activities being conducted at the site. Additional discretionary inspection procedures may be used if decommissioning or ISFSI activities warrant.

We will gladly discuss any questions you may have regarding this MIP. If you have questions, please feel free to contact the following members of my staff: Rhex Edwards at 630-829-9722 or Eugenio Bonano (Security) at 630-829-9826.

Sincerely,
