SUMMARY

OF SITE AUDIT RELATED TO THE REVIEW OF THE LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION FOR SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT, UNITS 1 AND 2 From July 11 to 15, 2011, a review team consisting of staff from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the staff) and a contractor from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) participated in a site audit at South Texas Project (STP), in Matagorda County, Texas, related to the environmental review of the STP, Units 1 and 2, license renewal application.

The primary goal of the site visit was to review documentation, gather information to ensure that the environmental requirements of license renewal as codified in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 51 (10 CFR Part 51) were met, and to interface with officials from local government agencies to obtain related information, in accordance with the issued audit plan (ML11145A064).

The Enclosure is a list of representatives from NRC, PNNL, a local government agency, STP Nuclear Operating Company (STPNOC) personnel, and an industry observer who participated in the site audit. The audit began on July 11, 2011, with an entrance meeting to introduce participants and to discuss logistics of the audit. Following the entrance meeting, the environmental review team participated in a general site tour of STP with STPNOC staff, its contractor, and an industry observer.

The general site tour provided an overview and orientation of the site areas relevant to the environmental review. During the remainder of the site audit, the environmental review team examined data used by STPNOC in preparation of the environmental report and met in smaller groups with STPNOC representatives to address the staff specific audit needs identified in the audit plan. These groups participated in various activities, including documentation review, facility survey (tour), and interviews with cognizant personnel.

The environmental review team members also met with the NRC resident Inspectors and offsite with local officials from the Water Conservation District for information gathering purposes to assist the staff in its evaluation to be documented in the draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (DSEIS) for STP license renewal. In addition, the team reviewed the STPNOC process for identifying new and significant information (information that would challenge the generic conclusions reached in the Generic Environmental Impact Statement for License Renewal of Nuclear Plants, NUREG-1437).

STPNOC cited no new and significant information.

The staff will document its independent evaluation in the DSEIS.

-2 At the conclusion of the site audit, the environmental review team summarized the status of the review with STPNOC representatives during the exit meeting. Most of the team's questions identified in the audit plan or during the audit were answered through the conduct of the audit. Those that were not will be answered by STPNOC, as it responds to the team's request for additional information (RAI) letter to be issued subsequently.

The RAI letter will also contain documents requested by the team during the site audit. These documents will be made publically available in the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.

Persons who do not have access to ADAMS or who encounter problems in accessing the documents located in ADAMS should contact the NRC's Public Document Room staff at 800-397-4209 (or 301-415-4737) or bye-mail at pdr.resource@nrc.gov.

While the NRC review team did not identify any significant environmental issues during its site audit or during the meetings with other participants, the team indicated that the environmental review was ongoing and that any additional information necessary to support the review would be formally requested via the RAI process, during the course of the review.
