UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 2100 RENAISSANCE BOULEVARD, SUITE 100 KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-2713 May 4, 2021 Mr. John Grabnar Site Vice President Energy Harbor Nuclear Corporation Beaver Valley Power Station P.O. Box 4, Route 168 Shippingport, PA 15088

SUBJECT:

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NOTIFICATION OF CONDUCT OF A FIRE PROTECTION TEAM INSPECTION

Dear Mr. Grabnar:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff will conduct a fire protection team inspection at your Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2, starting in August 2021. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with Inspection Procedure 71111, Attachment 21N.05, Fire Protection Team Inspection (FPTI), dated June 12, 2019. The inspection team will be led by Mr. Eugene DiPaolo, a Senior Reactor Inspector from the NRC Region I Office.

The inspection will verify that plant structures, systems, and components, and/or administrative controls credited in the approved fire protection program can perform their licensing basis function.

The schedule for the inspection is as follows:

• Information Gathering Visit: August 17 - August 19, 2021

• Onsite Inspection: Weeks of August 30, 2021 and September 13, 2021 The purpose of the information gathering visit is to obtain information and documentation needed to support the inspection and to become familiar with the stations fire protection program, fire protection features, post-fire safe shutdown capabilities, and plant layout. During the information gathering visit, the team leader will select the specific samples to be reviewed during the onsite inspection weeks. The information gathering visit may be conducted remotely due to the pandemic situation.

The enclosure lists the types of documents that will be needed prior to the information gathering visit. Please provide the referenced information to the Region I office by August 6, 2021.

Following sample selection, additional documents will be requested specific to those samples.

Your cooperation and support during this inspection will be appreciated.

If you have questions concerning this inspection, or the inspection team's information request or logistical needs, please contact Mr. Eugene DiPaolo, Team Leader at (610) 337-6959, or via e-mail at eugene.dipaolo@nrc.gov.

J. Grabnar 2 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, 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 letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) 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.

Sincerely, X /RA/

Electronic format is preferred. If electronic media is made available via an internet-based document management system, then document access must allow inspectors to download, save, and print the documents in the NRC's Regional office. Additionally, word-searchable documents are preferred, if available. Paper records (hard copy) are acceptable. At the end of the inspection, the documents in the teams possession will not be retained.

This document request is based on typical documents that a generic plant might have. As such, this generic document request is not meant to imply that any specific plant is required to have all of the listed documents. It is recognized that some documents listed below may not be available for your plant. In addition, the document titles listed below are based on typical industry document names; your plant specific document titles may vary.

Note that following sample selection, additional documents will be requested specific to those samples.
