COOK NUCLEAR PLANT. UNITS 1 AND 2 BACKGROUND AND AUDIT BASIS By letter dated March 12, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued a request for information to all power reactor licensees and holders of construction permits in active or deferred status, pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 50.54(f) "Conditions of license" (hereafter referred to as the "50.54(f) letter").
The request was issued in connection with implementing lessons-learned from the 2011 accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant, as documented in The Near-Term Task Force Review of Insights from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Accident.
Recommendation 2.1 in that document recommended that the NRC staff issue orders to all licensees to reevaluate seismic and flooding for their sites against current NRC requirements and guidance.
Subsequent Staff Requirements Memoranda associated with Commission Papers SECY 11-0124 and SECY-11-0137, instructed the NRC staff to issue requests for information to licensees pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f).
By letter dated March 6, 2015, Indiana Michigan Power Company (the licensee) submitted its Flood Hazard Reevaluation Reports (FHRRs) for Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plants, Units 1 and 2 (D.C. Cook) ((Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML15069A334).
The NRC is in the process of reviewing the aforementioned submittal and has completed a regulatory audit of the licensee to better understand the development of the submittal, identify any similarities/differences with past work completed and ultimately aid in its review of licensees' FHRR. This audit summary is being completed in accordance with the guidance set forth in NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Office Instruction LIC-111, "Regulatory Audits," dated December 29, 2008, ADAMS Accession No. ML082900195).
AUDIT LOCATION AND DATES The audit was completed by document review via a webinar session in conjunction with the use of the licensee's established electronic reading room (ERR) and teleconference on October 14, 2015, from 1 :OOpm to 2:00pm.

- 2. DOCUMENTS AUDITED Attachment 1 of this report contains a list which details the documents that were reviewed by the NRC staff, in part or in whole, as part of this audit. The documents were located in an electronic reading room during the NRC staff's review. The documents, or portions thereof, that were used by the staff as part of the technical analysis and/or as reference in the completion of the staff assessment, were submitted by the licensee and docketed for completeness of information, as necessary.
These documents are identified in Table 1. AUDIT ACTIVITIES In general, the audit activities consisted mainly of the following actions:
- Review background information on site topography and geographical characteristics of the watershed.
- Review site physical features and plant layout.
- Understand the selection of important assumptions and parameters that would be the basis for evaluating the individual flood causing mechanisms described in the 50.54(f) letter.
- Review model inpuUoutput files to computer analyses such as Delft-3D and FL0-20 to have an understanding of how modeling assumptions were programmed and executed.
Table 1 summarizes specific technical topics (and resolution) of important items that were discussed and clarified during the audit. The items discussed in Table 1 may be referenced/mentioned in the staff assessment in more detail. Table 1: Technical Topics of Discussion Info Need Information Need Description Post-Audit Status No. 1 The licensee is requested to clarify, and Response in the electronic reading room where necessary correct, the comparison of (ERR) is sufficient.
The NRC staff would the reevaluated flood hazard to the current like this response from the ERR to be design bases. placed on the docket to support the interim hazard letter. 2 Provide the justification for using the Response in ERR is sufficient.
The NRC Holland, Ml wave information as staff would like this response from the representative of the site wave ERR to be placed on the docket to characterization.
Reference as necessary support the interim hazard letter. appropriate ERR document(s) and figures and other information to support this assumption.
3 Provide a discussion of the uncertainty Response in ERR is sufficient.
The NRC associated with the extrapolated wave staff would like this response from the runup estimation method and provide a ERR to be placed on the docket to justification for not using a more rigorous support the staff assessment.
method to develop the wave runup estimate.
4 Provide a discussion of the Case 3 Response in ERR is sufficient.
Technical conditions analyzed with the SSPMP rainfall staff would like the response placed on hydrograph (e.g. rooftop drains plugged, the docket to support the staff protected storm drainage system), and the assessment.
The NRC staff reviewed the Case 2 conditions analyzed using the HMR June 16, 2015, docketed submittal and rainfall hydrograph.
confirmed that the LIP input and output files were docketed.
Therefore the licensee does not need to docket the files as requested during the audit. 5 Provide a discussion of the plugged roof Response in ERR is sufficient.
The NRC drainage analyzed with additional runoff to staff would like this response from the adjacent cells in the Case 3 analysis.
ERR to be placed on the docket to support the staff assessment. Info Need Information Need Description Post-Audit Status No. 6 The licensee is requested to provide the Withdrawn
-This information need is applicable flood event duration parameters being withdrawn and will be revisited (see definition and Figure 6 of the Guidance during the review of the mitigation for Performing an Integrated Assessment, strategies assessment. (Japan Lessons-Learned Directorate) (JLD) Interim Staff Guidance (ISG) JLD-ISG-2012-
- 05) associated with mechanisms that trigger an Integrated Assessment using the results of the flood hazard reevaluation.
This includes (as applicable) the warning time the site will have to prepare for the event (e.g., the time between notification of an impending flood event and arrival of floodwaters on site) and the period of time the site is expected to be inundated for the mechanisms that are not bounded by the current design basis. The licensee is also requested to provide the basis or source of information for the flood event duration, which may include a description of relevant forecasting methods (e.g., products from local, regional, or national weather forecasting centers) and/or timing information derived from the hazard analysis. Info Need Information Need Description Post-Audit Status No. 7 The licensee is requested to provide the Withdrawn

includes the following quantified information for each mechanism (as applicable):
- Wind waves and run up,
- Hydrodynamic loading, including debris,
- Effects caused by sediment deposition and erosion (e.g., flow velocities, scour),
- Concurrent site conditions, including adverse weather,
- Groundwater ingress Provide the analysis used to support the conclusions for associated effects. It is requested that the licensee provide analysis of associated effects for these flood causing mechanisms or a clear statement with justification as to why these effects are excluded.
During the audit the licensee committed to provide all requested audit responses on the docket by November 13, 2015.
