SUBJECT:
ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR SEABROOK STATION, UNIT NO. 1 (REPORT 05000443/2020006)
Dear Mr. Moul,
The NRC has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Seabrook Station, Unit 1 (Seabrook), reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility.
The NRC concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety.
The baseline inspection program was completed at your facility as defined in Inspection Manual Chapter 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase.
The NRC determined the performance at Seabrook during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column (Column 1) of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP)
Action Matrix in Inspection Manual Chapter 0305, Operating Reactor Assessment Program, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at Seabrook The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through December 31, 2022. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last twelve months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.
In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE), the NRC is adjusting inspection plans and schedules in order to safeguard the health and safety of both NRC and licensee staff while still effectively implementing the ROP. Each planned inspection is being carefully reviewed in order to determine if any portions of the inspection can be performed remotely, how best to perform on-site portions to minimize personnel health risks, and adjust inspection schedules if needed. This is done in accordance with guidance contained in the February 1, 2021 memo, Calendar Year 2021 Inspection Guidance During COVID-19 Telework Restrictions (ML21027A274). For inspections requiring extensive coordination with offsite organizations, such as evaluated emergency preparedness exercises, NRC guidance and frequently asked questions for security and emergency preparedness can be found here:
https://www.nrc.gov/about-nrc/covid-19/security-ep/. Similarly, the NRC has developed guidance if force-on-force inspections cannot be completed as scheduled due to an emergency, such as the COVID-19 PHE. These changes help ensure the health and safety of both NRC and licensee staff while maintaining the NRCs important safety and security mission during the COVID-19 PHE. The attached inspection plan is accurate on the date of issuance but remains subject to change based on approval of potential exemption requests or other changes needed due to changing conditions in the COVID-19 PHE. NRC staff will contact your appropriate regulatory affairs staff in order to coordinate inspection planning and scheduling.
On March 11, 2019 (ADAMS Ref. No. ML18204A291) the NRC issued a license amendment which reconciles the licensing design basis of concrete structures impacted by alkali-silica reaction (ASR). On November 24, 2020 (ADAMS Ref. No. ML20318A003) the NRC issued a letter that revised the Renewed Facility Operating License (RFOL) No. NPF-86 to include four additional conditions in RFOL No. NPF-86 that the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (ALSB) found necessary to satisfy regulatory requirements with respect to ASR. The NRC will inspect the incorporation of the additional conditions ordered by the ASLB into your station programs and procedures as well as continue to provide oversight of your management of the effects of ASR in the plants concrete structures using the ROPs baseline inspection program.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRCs Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely, X /RA/
