Inspect 3 (TBD)

The purpose of this letter is to notify St. Lucie that three inspectors from Region II will conduct an inspection at your site in accordance with Inspection Procedure 71111.21N.03, Focused Engineering Inspection (FEI), Attachment 21N.03, Commercial Grade Dedication, Commercial Grade Dedication. This is not considered a team inspection. The inspection will evaluate Watts Bars process for dedicating commercial-grade items, as required in applicable portions of Appendix B to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50 (Appendix B), to ensure reasonable assurance is provided that these items will perform their intended safety function. Additionally, this inspection will evaluate implementation of Watts Bars procurement process for safety-related components, as required in Appendix B. The inspectors will select samples of components that are risk significant and within the scope of the program.

During a 6/30/2023, phone call Mr. Tim Falkiewicz, PSL Regulatory Affairs, we confirmed arrangements for an information-gathering site visit and the two-week onsite inspection. The schedule is as follows:

Information Gathering Visit: November 6, 2023; Preparation Week: November 20, 2023.

On November 6, 2023, Mr. Theo Fanelli, a Senior Reactor Inspector from the NRCs Region II office, will begin the inspection with an information gathering visit to the site. The purpose of the

R. Coffey 2 visit is to become familiar with the process for dedicating commercial-grade items and the process for procuring safety-related components at ST. Lucie. This visit may include a tour of onsite commercial-grade item dedication facilities, receipt inspection facilities, storage facilities, and installed plant components associated with potential inspection samples. During the visit, the team lead will also review the information provided in the initial information request to select a list of potential inspection samples. The team lead may also identify other information needed to support the inspection during this visit.

To minimize the impact on your staff and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed two separate requests for information needed prior to the onsite information gathering visit and offsite inspection preparation week. The first request (Enclosure 1) is generally for information that will be used to choose the inspection samples or information that will be applicable to all inspection samples throughout the inspection. This information should be made available to the team lead prior to the information gathering visit. The second request (Enclosure 2) is for information specific to individual samples and should be made available prior to the offsite preparation week.

Please provide the information requested in Enclosure 1 to the Region II Office or a file sharing site by October 30, 2023. Additional documents may be requested during the information gathering visit. The inspectors will try to minimize your administrative burden by specifically identifying only those documents required for inspection preparation. The additional information should be provided to the Inspectors in the Region II office or a file sharing site by November 20, 2023.

During the information gathering visit, Mr. Fanelli will also discuss the following inspection support administrative details: (1) availability of knowledgeable plant engineering and licensing personnel to serve as points of contact during the inspection, (2) method of tracking inspector requests during the inspection, (3) computer access, (4) working space, (5) arrangements for site access, and (6) other applicable informatio R.
