SUBJECT: RIVER BEND STATION - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION (NRC INSPECTION
REPORT 05000458/2022004) AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Scott:
During the week of August 29, 2022, three inspectors from the Nuclear Regulatory
Commissions (NRC) Region IV office will perform the baseline biennial requalification
inspection at River Bend Station, using NRC Inspection Procedure 71111.11B, Licensed
Operator Requalification Program.
Experience has shown that this inspection is a resource intensive inspection both for the NRC
inspectors and your staff. To minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a
productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection.
These documents have been divided into three groups:
- The first group (Section A of the enclosure) identifies information to be provided prior to
the inspection to ensure that the inspectors are adequately prepared.
- The second group (Section B of the enclosure) identifies the information the inspectors
will need upon arrival at the site.
- The third group (Section C of this enclosure) identifies the items which are necessary to
close out the inspection and are usually sent a few weeks after the inspectors have left
the site.
It is important that all these documents are up to date and complete to minimize the number of
additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of the
inspection.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand
that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Justin Frost of your training organization.
Our inspection dates are subject to change based on your updated schedule of examination
activities. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please
contact me, David You, at (843) 696-8362 (david.you@nrc.gov).
K. Scott 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, control number 3150-
0018. 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 and its enclosure 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.

- Access to licensed operators training attendance records
- Access to licensed operators medical records
03.04g: Control Room Simulator Performance
- Simulator discrepancies from August 28, 2020 - August 29, 2022. This should
include all open and closed simulator discrepancy reports, including the
documentation/justification for closure.
- Acceptance test documentation, including hardware and software model revisions at
the time of acceptance (as available)
- Documentation that validates current models, including the thermal-hydraulics and
neutronics models, to the actual plant
- All current model deficiencies, including FSAR vs design differences in the simulator
(any documentation on this)
- Summary list of modifications from August 28, 2020 - August 29, 2022
- Plant modifications (both hardware and software) completed on the simulator by due
date from August 28, 2020 - August 29, 2022
- Simulator differences lesson plan used in training (current to August 29, 2022)
- The complete book of all simulator annual performance test packages (usually in a
single book but may be electronic or in single test packages), complete with all
transient tests, steady state tests, and malfunction tests. This should also include
the test procedures for each test, the acceptance criteria, and results. For each
transient test, the reference chart should be included or an equivalent subject matter
expert review versus the simulator results with a write-up for any differences beyond
the ANSI standard requirements.

- All test packages used to verify core physics parameters (such as moderator
temperature coefficient and integral rod worth). The applicable reference graphs
from the plant physics data book (electronic or other means as available) should also
be included as well as the test procedures used and the acceptance criteria with
results.
- All simulator tests, configuration management, and related documents available in
the room for inspectors to review. This includes training needs analysis packages,
Simulator Review Committee meeting minutes, etc.
- Current copy of ANSI 3.5 standard you are committed to for simulator testing
C. River Bend is required to send the final results summary (see Table 1 below) and any
remaining exams and operating tests that have not been reviewed to the regional
office lead inspector for this inspection for final review and comparison against the
Significance Determination Tools to communicate the exit results for the inspection.
TABLE 1: EXAMINATION RESULTS
1. Total number of licensed operators.
2. Number of licensed operators administered a requalification
examination required by 10 CFR 55.59(a).
3. Number of individual licensed operators who failed any portion of a
requalification examination (written, JPM, or individual simulator
scenario failures).
4. Divide line 3 by line 2 to obtain the individual requalification
examination failure rate. Line 3/Line 2. %
5. Number of crews administered simulator scenarios as part of a
requalification examination required by 10 CFR 55.59(a).
6. Number of crews who performed unsatisfactorily on the
simulator scenarios.
7. Divide line 6 by line 5 to obtain the crew simulator scenario
failure rate. Line 6/Line 5. %
