==Dear Mr. Meyer:==
On February 17, 2011, the NRC staff completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Point Beach Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1 through December 31, 2010. This letter informs you of the NRCs 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 NRCs assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.


==Dear Mr. Meyer:==
The NRC determined that overall Point Beach Nuclear Plant operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response column of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.

SUBJECT:

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 (05000266/2011001; 05000301/2011001)

Dear Mr. Meyer:

On February 17, 2011, the NRC staff completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Point Beach Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1 through December 31, 2010. This letter informs you of the NRCs 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 NRCs assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.

The NRC determined that overall Point Beach Nuclear Plant operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response column of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very low (i.e., green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the nominal, expected range (i.e., green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline inspections at your facility.

The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2012.

Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan.

The inspections in the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle 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.

In addition to the ROP baseline, inspections are planned for Temporary Inspection 2515/179, Verification of Licensee Responses to NRC Requirement for Inventories of Materials Tracked in NSTS, Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) inspection 60855.1, Operation of an ISFSI at Operating Plants, and inspection 71004, "Power Uprate Inspections. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
