QUAD CITIES GENERATING STATION - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
FOR THE NRC AGE-RELATED DEGRADATION INSPECTION: INSPECTION
REPORT 05000265/2024010 and 05000254/2024010
Dear David P. Rhoades:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
staff will conduct IP 71111.21N.04, Age-Related Degradation baseline inspection at Quad
Cities Generating Station, Units 1 and 2, beginning August 5, 2024. The inspection will be
conducted in accordance with IP 71111.21N.04, dated December 15, 2023.
The schedule for the inspection is as follows:
- Information gathering visit - week of June 17, 2024
- On-site inspection - weeks of August 5, 2024, and August 19, 2024
The purpose of the information gathering visit is to become familiar with the station
maintenance, surveillance, testing, inspection, and condition monitoring programs, become
familiar with plant layout, support identification of structures, systems, and components (SSCs)
that will be reviewed during the inspection, and, as necessary, obtain plant-specific site access
training and badging for unescorted site access. An initial list of documents that the team will
review during the information gathering visit is listed in enclosure 1.
For SSCs that the inspection team plans to review, an initial list of the documents the team
plans to review during the conduct of the inspection are listed in enclosure 2. The team leader
will contact you with identified SSCs. Also, personnel should be available at the site during the
inspection who are knowledgeable regarding maintenance, surveillance, testing, inspection, and
condition monitoring programs.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Atif Shaikh. We understand that our regulatory contact
for this inspection is Richard Swart of your organization. If there are any questions about the
inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at
630-829-9824 or via email at Atif.Shaikh@nrc.gov.

Enclosure 1
Enclosure 1 - Requested Information to Support Age-Related Degradation Sample
Selection
The documents and information requested below should generally be made available to the
inspection team for the teams use both on-site and off-site during the information gathering
visit. Electronic format is the preferred media. If electronic media is made available via an
internet based remote document management system, then the remote document access
should allow inspectors to download, save, and print the documents in the NRCs regional
office. Electronic media on compact disc or 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 document request is not meant to imply that any specific plant is required to have
all of the listed documents. In addition, your plant-specific document titles may vary from the
document titles listed below.
The following information is requested by May 31, 2024, or sooner, to facilitate the
sample selections.
