CGS Nov 2020 EP Program Inspection RFI.pdf Importance:
High Dan:
Mark Sullivan (CGS EP Manager) called me late last week to inform me that the station will be pursuing an exemption request to push the CGS EP Exercise and associated inspection to CY2021 (late Oct 2021). As discussed in the May 14, 2020 guidance letter, the supplement to the May 14th letter, and RIS 2006-003, regarding such exemption requests, please promptly communicate and coordinate with your stations NRR/DORL Project Manager regarding any presubmittal calls and the exemption process.
Also during our call last week, Mark and I agreed that in lieu of the EP Exercise Inspection the week of 10/26/2020, the station will be ready to support the EP Program Inspection the following week of 11/2/2020 instead. This roll-back of the EP Program inspection from CY2021 to CY2020 is in line with the actions the NRC Region IV taken for all of the other stations who have submitted an exemption to push their exercise to CY2021 due to continuing impacts from the COVID-19 PHE.
With only ~6 weeks before this rescheduled inspection, the purpose of this e-mail is two-fold
- 1. Request that we hold an inspection Kick-Off for the EP Program Inspection this upcoming week with EP and Regulatory Affairs. I will be in a work status Tuesday, 9/22 through Friday, 9/25, this week. Please set up a ~30 min call based on the stations availability and in consideration of my current availability as follows:
- d. Fri, 9/25: 7:00 - 10:00 AM PDT
- 2. While I normally wait until after the Kick-Off Call to send the Request for Information (RFI) in support of the inspection, because of the short period, I wanted to give the station as much time as possible to start gathering the materials requested. So attached to this e-mail is also the RFI that we will discuss during the Kick-Off call. In the attached, I listed a requested date for the materials to be provided in electronic format using the online document portal of the stations choice by COB on Monday, October 19, 2020. This date chosen provides the typical ~4 weeks for the station to compile and provide the materials in support of my inspection preparation. If the station requires additional time for some of the materials requested, we can discuss this during the Kick-Off call this week.

The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request ADAMS Accession No. ML20265A324
