Upcoming North Anna NRC Radiation Safety Inspection - August 2019 Attachments: NAPS 2019003 RP Inspection Doc Request.pdf

Bob, I expect little has changed organizationally since I was onsite in March, and that you will be my licensing point of contact for the NRC Rad Safety Inspection at North Anna scheduled for the week of August 4 - 9, 2019. If you are no longer the licensing point of contact, please let me know. Assuming you are still the POC, attached is the Initial Information Request and a Document Request List.

The NRC Health Physics inspectors that will be on-site during the inspection are myself, William (Bill) Pursley, and Jose Diaz. I am relatively sure that Bill and my Dominion site access training is up date, but Jose has not been onsite in many years. However, all of us should on the current good guy letter.

Please let me know that you received this request. If there are any questions about this inspection, or the material requested, please contact me via email, by phone, or at the address included below.

Regards, Bob Robert Kellner Senior Health Physicist USNRC/Region II/DRS/EB3 Marquis One Tower Suite 1200 245 Peachtree Center Ave, NE Atlanta, GA 303031257 (404) 9974508 Robert.Kellner@nrc.gov 1

North Anna Power Station Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Report: 2019003 During the week of August 5-9, 2019, the NRC will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at North Anna Power Station (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.06, 71124.07, 71124.08, and 71151).

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we are requesting in advance documents needed for this activity. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, thereby minimizing the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later than July 8, 2019.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Robert Kellner (Robert.Kellner@nrc.gov) at 404-997-4508, or the Engineering Branch 3 Chief, Brian Bonser (Brian.Bonser@nrc.gov) at 404-997-4653.
