SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR DOCUMENTATION FOR SAFETY SYSTEM ENGINEERING INSPECTION (SSEI)

Dear Mr. MacFarland:

4

_ Starting on February 8,1999, NRC Region ill will be conducting a Safety System Engineering e

Inspection at the Clinton Power Station. This inspection will be performed in accordance with various NRC inspection procedures (IPs) including IP 93809, " Safety System Engineering Inspection," IP 37550, " Engineering," IP 37700, " Design, Design Changes, and Modifications,"

. and IP 92700, "Onsite Licensee Event Report Review."

?

l.

These types of inspections have previously been found to be rather resource intensive. In order
to eraure a productive inspection for both sides, we have enclosed a request for documents j'

needed for the inspection. These requests have been' divided into three groups. The first we would appreciate being mailed or faxed to Region lli as expeditiously as possible. This will allow the inspectors to determine which modifications and other engineering products they will review in more detail and allow your staff time to obtain copies of those modifications and supporting documents. The second group should be available to the NRC by January 19,1999. The team F

leader will arrange for a site trip to obtain the information. These documents will then be n

reviewed in the Region Ill office prior to the first onsite Inspection week. The final group of j

documents requested are procedures and other documents which the team will need access to

[

during the inspection and should be available to the NRC by February 1,1999.

Attached to the list of requested documents is a list of items previously opened in NRC inspection reports or discussed in licensee event reports. We would appreciate it if you would review this list and determine which items appear ready for closure. The list should be marked

'~

. up with this information, along with the name of a cognizant hdividual and returned with the first set ofinformation.'

The team leader for this inspection is Eric Duncan. He can be reached at (630) 829-9739 if you have any questions about either the list or the inspection itself.
