SUBJECT:

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR MCGUIRE NUCLEAR STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000369/2017006 AND 05000370/2017006, REPORT 05000369/2017402 AND 05000370/2017402, REPORT 05000369/2017501 AND 05000370/2017501

Dear Mr. Ray:

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of McGuire Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2, reviewing performance indicators (PIs),

inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2017.

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 concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety.

The NRC determined the performance at McGuire Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2 during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column, the highest performance category of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the 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 December 31, 2019. This updated inspection plan now includes planned security inspections which were formerly transmitted under separate correspondence. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last 12 months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.

T. Ray 2 This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) 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.

Please contact me at 404-997-4611 with any questions you have regarding this letter.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Frank Ehrhardt, Chief Reactor Projects Branch 1 Division of Reactor Projects Docket Nos.: 50-369, 50-370 License Nos.: NPF-9, NPF-17
