Subject:

REQ: Kick-Off Call & RFI Provided for Cooper "Roll-Back" EP Program Inspection (Week of January 11, 2021)

Attachments: COOPER Jan 2021 EP Program Inspection RFI.pdf Importance: High REVISED DOCUMENT ATTACHMENT - Please disregard and dispose of prior attachment in lieu of the attachment to this EMAIL David/Larry:

Thank you for providing the RFI response for the EP Performance Indicator Verification inspection that I will complete in office next week (Nov 1619).

As previously discussed and in consideration of the stations and NRCs schedules in this 4Q/2020, with EP Exercise Inspection moved from CY2020 to May 2021, we were not able to fully rollback the EP Program Inspection at Cooper into CY2020, but instead to January 2021. In that we are now approximately 2 months from the partially rolledback EP Program Inspection at Cooper (week of January 11, 2021), the purpose of this email is to twofold:

1. Request that we hold an inspection KickOff Call for the January 2021 EP Program Inspection this upcoming week with EP and Regulatory Affairs. Perhaps we could hold this discussion as an add on following the Exit briefing for the PI Verification inspection on Thursday afternoon 11/19 (after Sr. Management has left the meeting), or some other mutually acceptable time early the following week (Mon or Tues BEFORE Thanksgiving).

2. While I normally wait until after the KickOff Call to send the Request for Information (RFI) in support of the EP Program inspection, because of the upcoming holidays, I wanted to give the station as much time as possible to start gathering the materials requested. So attached to this email is also the RFI that we will discuss during the KickOff call. As appropriate, the station is free to leverage information recently provided for the EP PI Verification Inspection RFI response in compiling this additional RFI response - just be sure to maintain the inspectors access to the previously provided material(s) in the online portal through the date of the EP Program Inspection.

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 Thursday, December 31, 2020. This date chosen provides more than the typical ~4 weeks for the station to compile and provide the materials in support of my inspection preparation, in recognizing that station staff will be taking time off to spend with family during the upcoming Holidays. If the station requires additional time for some of the materials requested, we can discuss this during the KickOff call.

This letter/email does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 31500011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.
