SUBJECT: DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF NRC DESIGN
BASES ASSURANCE INSPECTION (PROGRAMS) AND INITIAL REQUEST FOR
INFORMATION: INSPECTION REPORT 05000315/2021011; 05000316/2021011
Dear Mr. Gebbie:
On August 9, 2021, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline
Design Bases Assurance Inspection (Programs) at Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant. This
inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC Baseline Inspection Procedure 71111.21N, Design Bases Assurance Inspection (Programs), Attachment 2, Design-Basis
Capability of Power-Operated Valves Under 10 CFR 50.55a Requirements.
This inspection will evaluate the reliability, functional capability, and design basis of
risk-important power-operated valves (POVs) as required by 10 CFR 50.55a and applicable
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A and Appendix B, requirements. In conducting this inspection, the
team will select risk-important POVs used to prevent and mitigate the consequences of a design
basis accident.
The inspection will include two weeks of onsite inspection. The inspection team will consist of
three NRC inspectors. The current inspection schedule is as follows:
- Preparation week: August 2 - 6, 2021
- Onsite weeks: August 9 - 13, 2021, and August 23 - 27, 2021
Experience with previous baseline engineering inspections of similar depth and length has
shown this type of inspection is extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and
the licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a
productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed for
the inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date and complete in order
to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the
onsite portions of the inspection. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided
electronically to the lead inspector. The information request has been divided into four groups:
J. Gebbie -2-
- The first group lists information necessary for our initial risk-informed scoping activities.
This information should be provided to the lead inspector no later than April 16, 2021.
- The second group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping activities.
This information should be provided to the lead inspector no later than June 4, 2021. By
June 28, 2021, the lead inspector will communicate the initial selected samples and any
additional information needed to support the in-office preparation activities.
- The third group of documents requested are those items needed to support our in-office
preparation activities. This set of documents should be provided to the lead inspector no
later than July 23, 2021. During the preparation activities, the team may identify
additional information needed to support the inspection.
- The fourth group includes the additional information above as well as plant-specific
reference material. This information should be available to the team onsite on
August 9, 2021. It is also requested that corrective action documents and answers to
questions developed during the inspection be provided to the lead inspector as the
documents are generated.
In addition, the enclosure includes information and requests addressing inspection logistics.
These items are requested be provided to the lead inspector by July 16, 2021.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Jorge Corujo-Sandin. We understand that our licensing
contact for this inspection is Mr. M. Ellet of your organization. If there are any questions about
the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, contact the lead inspector at
630-829-9741 or via e-mail at Jorge.Corujo-Sandin@nrc.gov.
This letter 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, Control
Number 3150-0011. 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.
J. Gebbie -3-
This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at
