FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 5501 North State Route 2, Mail Stop A-DB-3080
==Dear Mr. Allen:==
On February 15, 201 2, the NRC completed its end
-of-cycle performance review of Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 20 1 1 , through December 31, 20 1 1. This letter informs you of the NRC's assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information. A separate letter will include the NRC's assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.
 
The NRC determined that overall, Davis
-Besse operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and fully met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at Davis-Besse during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance
, and all PIs indicat ed that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green). Therefore, the NRC plan s to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.
 
In addition to the ROP baseline, inspections are planned for Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/182 Phase I, "Review of the Implementation of the Industry Initiative to Control Degradation of Underground Piping,"
TI 2515/177 , "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems," and Inspection Procedure (IP) 71007, "Reactor Vessel Head Replacement Inspection." The NRC identifies substantive cross
-cutting issues (SCCIs) to communicate a concern with the licensee's performance in a cross
-cutting area and to encourage the licensee to take appropriate actions before more significant performance issues emerge. The NRC identified a cross-cutting theme in the Resources component of the Human Performance cross
-cutting area
. Specifically, five findings were identified with the cross
-cutting aspect of Documentation and Procedures [H.2(c)]. The NRC determined that an SCCI exists because the NRC has a concern with your staff's scope of effort and progress in addressing the cross
-cutting theme. In particular, corrective actions taken in 2010 regarding H.2(c) events appear to have been ineffective. Similarly, a limited apparent cause evaluation focusing on H.2(c) completed in August 2011 did not identify any common causes and recommended no additional corrective actions be taken. The human performance substantive cross
-cutting issue in the H.2(c) aspect will remain open until the number of findings in the H.2(c) aspect is reduced and you demonstrate the implementation of effective corrective actions that result in sustained performance improvement in the human performance area.
 
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 201 3. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will
 
contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.

==Dear Mr. Allen:==
Sincerely,/RA by Gary L. Shear for/
On January 10, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a MOD/50.59 baseline inspection at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. This inspection will be performed in accordance with the NRC baseline Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.17. The on-site portion of the inspection will take place on January 10-14, 2011, and January 24 - 28, 2011. Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. In orde r to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into three groups. The first group of information is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is adequately prepared for the inspection. This information should be made available to the inspection team via compact disc and delivered to the Regional Office no later than December 13, 2010. The inspection team will review this information and by December 20, 2010, will request specific items that should be provided for review in the Regional Office by December 27, 2010. The second group of requested documents contains additional items that the inspection team will review, or needs access to, during the inspection. Certain documents contained within this group, i.e., Item (1), will be requested for review in the Regional Office prior to the inspection by December 27, 2010, as identified above. The rema ining documents should be available by the first day of the on-site inspection, January 10, 2011. The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified as a result of the inspection. The remaining documents in group three should be available by the first day of the on-site inspection, January 10, 2011. It is requested that this information be provided to the inspection team leader as the information is generated during the inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up to date and complete in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the on-site portions of the inspection. The inspection team leader for this inspection is Mr. George M. Hausman. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. Gerry Wolf, (419) 321-8001 of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the inspection team leader at (630) 829-9743 or via e-mail at George.Hausman@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." In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS).

Dear Mr. Allen:

On February 15, 201 2, the NRC completed its end

-of-cycle performance review of Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 20 1 1 , through December 31, 20 1 1. This letter informs you of the NRC's assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information. A separate letter will include the NRC's assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.

The NRC determined that overall, Davis

-Besse operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and fully met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at Davis-Besse during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance

, and all PIs indicat ed that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green). Therefore, the NRC plan s to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.

In addition to the ROP baseline, inspections are planned for Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/182 Phase I, "Review of the Implementation of the Industry Initiative to Control Degradation of Underground Piping,"

TI 2515/177 , "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems," and Inspection Procedure (IP) 71007, "Reactor Vessel Head Replacement Inspection." The NRC identifies substantive cross

-cutting issues (SCCIs) to communicate a concern with the licensee's performance in a cross

-cutting area and to encourage the licensee to take appropriate actions before more significant performance issues emerge. The NRC identified a cross-cutting theme in the Resources component of the Human Performance cross

-cutting area

. Specifically, five findings were identified with the cross

-cutting aspect of Documentation and Procedures H.2(c). The NRC determined that an SCCI exists because the NRC has a concern with your staff's scope of effort and progress in addressing the cross

-cutting theme. In particular, corrective actions taken in 2010 regarding H.2(c) events appear to have been ineffective. Similarly, a limited apparent cause evaluation focusing on H.2(c) completed in August 2011 did not identify any common causes and recommended no additional corrective actions be taken. The human performance substantive cross

-cutting issue in the H.2(c) aspect will remain open until the number of findings in the H.2(c) aspect is reduced and you demonstrate the implementation of effective corrective actions that result in sustained performance improvement in the human performance area.

The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 201 3. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will

contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.

Similarly, a limited apparent cause evaluation focusing on H.2(c) completed in August 2011 did not identify any common causes and recommended no additional corrective actions be taken. The human performance substantive cross

-cutting issue in the H.2(c) aspect will remain open until the number of findings in the H.2(c) aspect is reduced and you demonstrate the implementation of effective corrective actions that result in sustained performance improvement in the human performance area.

The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2013. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid

-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.
