SUBJECT:

PLANT PERFORMANCE REVIEW (PPR) - CATAWBA i .

Dear Mr. McCollum:

t On September 30. 1996, the NRC staff com)leted the semiannual Plant Performance Review (PPR) of the Catawba luclear Station. The staff conducts l

' these reviews for all operating nuclear power plants to develop an integrated I

, understanding of safety performance. The results are used by regional

! management to facilitate planning and allocation of inspection resources. The  :

l PPR for Catawba involved the participation of all regional technical divisions

and NRR in evaluating inspection results and safety performance information for the period from March 1996 to September 1996. PPRs provide regional 1 management with a current summary of licensee performance and serve as inputs I to the NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance and senior management

meeting reviews. H l This letter advises you of our planned inspection effort resulting from the

! Catawba PPR review. It is provided in an attempt to minimize the resource impact on your staff and to allow for scheduling conflicts to be resolved in

-advance of inspection dates. The enclosure presents our. inspection plan for- l the-next six months. Specific dates are included for near term inspections.  !

Long term inspection dates will be announced prior ~to the inspections and any scheduling conflicts will be resolved with your staff. The rational or basis for each inspection outside the core inspection program is provided so that you are aware of the reasons for em)hasis in these program areas. Resident I inspections are not listed.due to t1eir ongoing and continuous nature, nor are Region based inspections which accomplish Resident Core Modules to compensate for Resident Inspector absences due to training.

During each NRC inspection planned during this period, specific attention will continue to be given to the verification of selected Updated Final Safety Analysis Re) ort (UFSAR) commitments. Applicable portion (s) of the UFSAR that relate to t1e inspection activities will be reviewed and verification made )

that the UFSAR commitments have been properly implemented into plant l practices. procedures and/or parameters.
