MCGUIRE NUCLEAR STATION - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION Date: Friday, April 10, 2020 11:45:21 AM Attachments: MCG LR P2 2020012 RFI.docx Richard -

Attached is the License Renewal Phase 2 Request for Information letter.

Please let me know if there are any questions.

Note: Obviously with the COVID-19 response ongoing, we face some uncertainty in terms of the logistics of inspections. Right now, we are conducting inspections remotely from ATL (via telework at home). There is a possibility that this may occur for the upcoming McGuire LR Phase 2 inspection as well. Should that decision be made, Ill communicate it to you as soon as possible, and we can coordinate how best to work through the challenges.

Thanks, Brendan Collins Senior Reactor Inspector USNRC Region II
