SUBJECT: DAVIS BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNIT 1 - INFORMATION

REQUEST FOR NRC TRIENNIAL EVALUATIONS OF CHANGES, TESTS,

AND EXPERIMENTS (50.59) BASELINE INSPECTION 05000346/2017010

Dear Mr. Boles:

On September 18, 2017, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a 50.59

Baseline Inspection at the Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1. This inspection will be

performed in accordance with the NRC Baseline Inspection Procedure 71111.17T. The onsite

portion of the inspection will take place on September 18-22, 2017.

Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are 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

documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into three groups.

The first group of information is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is

adequately prepared for the inspection. This information should be made available via

compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than August 7, 2017. The

inspection team will review this information and, by August 21, 2017, will request specific

items that should be provided for review in the regional office by September 5, 2017.

The second group of requested documents contains additional items that the team will

review, or need access to, during the inspection. Certain documents contained within

Group II (i.e., Item (1)), will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the

inspection by September 5, 2017, as identified above. The remaining documents should

be available by the first day of the onsite inspection, September 18, 2017.

The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues

identified as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to

the lead inspector as the information is generated during the inspection. 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.

B. Boles -2-

The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. John V. Bozga. We understand that our regulatory

contact for this inspection is Ms. Vicki Schultz, 419-321-7690 of your organization. If there are

any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector

at 630-829-9613.

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.

This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in

accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

preferred file format is a searchable pdf file. The CDs should be indexed and hyper-

linked to facilitate ease of use, if possible. If you have any questions regarding this

information, please call the inspection team leader as soon as possible.

c. Changes to calculations (or initiation of new calculations) that have been

issued. The list should contain the number and title of each document, a

brief description of the change, and the corresponding number and type of

the affected document (i.e., the modification or procedure to which the

evaluation applies). The list should NOT include any evaluations in

which prior U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval was sought
