Subject:

RFI for RBS EP Program Inspection - Week of June 28, 2021 Date: Friday, April 23, 2021 7:33:35 AM Attachments: RFI for RBS June 2021 EP Program Inspection.pdf Ms Johns/Mr. Gates:

As discussed during the inspection planning/kick-off call held on April 20, 2021, attached is the Request for Information (RFI) in support of the River Bend Station (RBS) EP PROGRAM Inspection which will be conducted the week of June 28, 2021.

As discussed during the call, the EP Program inspection for RBS will include the use of Inspection Procedures (IP) 71114.02, 711114.03, 71114.04, 71114.05, and 71151 to assess the overall health and maintenance of the stations EP program. Normally conducted in the year opposite of the EP Exercise Inspection, the EP Program inspection at RBS is being conducted about 6 weeks after the EP Exercise Inspection during this biennial inspection cycle only because the station requested, and was granted an exemption, to move the biennial EP exercise from CY2021 to CY2022 in response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency and there was not a viable opportunity to move the EP Program inspection back into last year.

Details of the requested materials are included in the attachment to this e-mail, and generally request the materials be made available via the electronic portal of the stations choosing by no later than June 10, 2021, to support inspection preparation activities. If you are unable to complete the requests or have questions regarding them, please contact me at the phone number listed below to discuss.

This letter/e-mail 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 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.

This email and its enclosures will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.
