SUBJECT: PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

FOR NRC LICENSE RENEWAL INSPECTION: INSPECTION REPORT

05000440/2024010

Dear Rod Penfield:

On July 15, 2024, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a license renewal

inspection at Perry Nuclear Power Plant. This inspection will be performed in accordance with

NRC Inspection Procedure 71002, License renewal Inspection.

The inspection will evaluate Perrys initial license renewal program plans and implementation to

ensure they are consistent with the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations

(10 CFR), Part 54, Requirements for the Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power

Plants, and Perrys license renewal application. The inspection will include an evaluation of

aging management programs that are planned or in place. The inspection will also include a

review of information and documentation required by 10 CFR 54.

The inspection will include 2 onsite weeks and will consist of 5-6 NRC inspectors (including the

lead inspector). The current inspection schedule is as follows:

• Preparation week: July 8 - 12, 2024

• Onsite weeks: Week 1: July 15 - 19, 2024

Week 2: July 29 - August 2, 2024

Experience with previous baseline inspections of similar depth and length has shown that this

type of inspection is extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee

staff. To minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for

both parties, we have enclosed a request for information.

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. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided electronically to the lead

inspector. The information request has been divided into three groups:

• The first group lists information necessary prior to the inspection. This information

should be provided to the lead inspector by May 27, 2024. March 28, 2024

R. Penfield 2

• The second group of documents requested are those items needed to support our

in-office preparation activities. This set of documents should be provided to the lead

inspector by July 5, 2024. During the in-office preparation activities, the team may

identify additional information needed to support the inspection.

• The third group includes supporting information to be provided throughout the onsite

inspection. Specifically, corrective action documents and answers to questions

developed during the inspection are requested to be provided as the documents are

generated.

In addition, the enclosure includes information and requests addressing inspection logistics.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Lionel Rodriguez. We understand that our licensing

contact for this inspection is George Dujanovic of your organization. If there are any questions

about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact the lead

inspector at 630-829-9609 or via email at Lionel.Rodriguez@nrc.gov.

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

3150-0011. 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 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.

Sincerely,

Lionel Rodriguez

INFORMATION REQUEST

Contact the lead inspector as soon as possible if you have any questions

regarding this information request. Provide the information electronically in pdf

files, Excel, or other searchable formats, preferably via an electronic sharing

service (CERTREC, ShareFile, Box, etc.). Specific Excel formats for various

access to Box, which can be used to upload/download and share documents.

The files should contain descriptive names and be indexed and hyperlinked to

facilitate ease of use. Information in lists should contain enough information to

be easily understood by someone who has knowledge of light water reactor

technology.
