By design, the biennial EP Exercise inspection includes the use of Inspection Procedures (IP) 71114.01, 71114.04, 71114.08, and 71151, to assess the overall health and maintenance of the stations EP program during the inspection year when the biennial EP Program inspection is not conducted. Details of the requested materials are included in the attachment to this e-mail. As noted in the attached, if possible, please make the requested materials available to me in electronic format using the online document portal of the stations choice, by the dates stated within the attachment. If you are unable to complete the request by this date, please contact me at the phone number listed below to discuss alternative options.

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.
