SUBJECT:
BYRON STATION, UNIT 2, REQUEST FOR INFORMATION FOR NRC
POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION FOR LICENSE RENEWAL, PHASE 2,
INSPECTION REPORT 05000455/2026010
Dear Christopher H. Mudrick:
On May 18, 2026, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a
Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal, Phase 2, at Byron Station, Unit 2. This
inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003. This
inspection will focus on verifying that license conditions added as part of your renewed
license and a sample of license renewal commitments have been implemented.
To minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for
both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed for the inspection. 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 on-site portions of the
inspection. Information should be provided electronically. This information request has been
divided into two groups:
The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping and in-office
preparation activities. During the in-office preparation activities, the inspector will
identify as much as possible the information and activities to be reviewed during the
inspection. This information should be provided to the inspector by April 13, 2026.
The second group includes the additional information required for the inspector to review
the selected activities. This information should be available to the inspector 1 week
before arriving onsite or May 11, 2026. It is also requested that corrective action
documents and/or questions developed during the inspection be provided to the
inspector as the documents are generated.
The lead inspector for this license renewal inspection is Joon Park. We understand that our
primary contact for this inspection is Gerald Armstrong of your organization. If there are any
questions about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact
the lead inspector at 630-829-9715 or via email at Joon.Park@nrc.gov.
