Document Request for NCS inspection Date: Monday, August 12, 2024 1:05:00 PM Attachments: 2024-003 Westinghouse NCS Document Request.docx
Steve, Chris,
This email is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Region II staff will conduct a nuclear criticality safety (NCS) inspection at your facility during the week of September 16, 2024. The inspection will focus on the core inspection procedures described in Inspection Manual Chapter 2600; and will use Inspection Procedures 88015, Nuclear Criticality Safety. I will be conducting the inspection. While Todd Shewmaker and Noah Woodyard are planned to accompany for inspector qualification purposes. Please let us know if there is anything we need to do to get onsite.
Experience has shown that these inspections are resource intensive both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to conduct a productive inspection, I have attached a request for documents needed for this inspection. If practical, we would like to have the documents at least a week prior to the inspection to facilitate preparation and be able to conduct a productive inspection.In the attachment, Ive also specified some items that we will need during the on-site portion of the inspection.
If possible, an entrance meeting should be scheduled for 13:00 on Monday, with an exit meeting at 16:00 on Thursday. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, particularly in the you find the request unclear or unduly burdensome, please contact me at 404-997-4525.
Thank you. - Tim.
