Surry Nuclear Power Station Baseline Radiation Safety Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Reports: 050-00280 and 050-00281/2022004

During the weeks of October 17-21, 2022, and November 14-18, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a Baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at the Surry Nuclear Power Station (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.01, 71124.03, 71124.04, 71124.05 and 71151).

To minimize the impact to your onsite resources during the inspection and ensure the inspectors have the necessary information to complete the inspection while on site, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this activity. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later than October 3, 2022.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, José M. Díaz-Vélez at 404-997-4736, or the Engineering Branch 3 Chief, Binoy Desai at 404-997-4519.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding: a copy of this document will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room, or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS); accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/readingrm/

Note: Please provide the current version of these documents in an electronic format if possible (The preferred file format is MSWord, or searchable.pdf files). To the extent possible, please organize the information in directories as requested below and if possible, use a descriptive name for the files provided. Recent experience has demonstrated the most efficient method to transfer this information to the NRC is via Certrec. It is best to upload all the requested information in one large zip file. If there are questions regarding the documents requested, or method of transfer, please do not hesitate to contact the lead inspector.

Documentation for inspection procedure 71124.01, should be from April 20, 2021.

Documentation for inspection procedures 711124.03, 71124.04, and 71124.05, should be from July 7, 2020, and 71151 should be from June 1, 2021. These dates are approximate to the last time these inspections were conducted. Also, provide only a listing and title for Condition Reports (CRs) requested for each inspection procedure and the inspectors will select a sample from the list for in-depth review during the inspection. Note that some of the items may be outside RPs purview, so some coordination with other groups might be required (e.g. rad monitor calibration records, ventilation testing records, etc.).

If you have any questions, please call José M. Díaz-Vélez at (404) 997-4517. Thank you in advance for your effort in putting together this material.
