UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION II 245 PEACHTREE CENTER AVENUE NE, SUITE 1200 ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303-1257 September 4, 2013

Mr. David A. Heacock President and Chief Nuclear Officer Virginia Electric and Power Company Dominion Nuclear Innsbrook Technical Center 5000 Dominion Boulevard

Glen Allen, VA 23060-6711

SUBJECT:

SURRY NUCLEAR STATION, NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION 05000280 AND 05000281

Dear Mr. Heacock:

From October 21 through October 25, 2013, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform the baseline Occupational Radiation Safety Inspection at the Surry Nuclear Station for NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.01 and 71124.

08. Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this 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 onsite portions of the inspection.

We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Jennifer Pollard of your organization, at (757) 365-2848, and that the material be available for review by October 11, 2013. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Ruben Hamilton at (404) 997-4672.

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, under control numbers 3150-0011, 3150-0014, and 3150-0135. 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 curr ently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

D. Heacock 2 In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (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 Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), which is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,

/RA by Adam Nielsen Acting For/

Brian R. Bonser, Chief Plant Support Branch 1 Division of Reactor Safety

Procedure: 71124.01 Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Controls 71124.08 Radioactive Solid Waste Processing and Radioactive Material Handling, Storage, and Transportation

Note: The current version of these documents is expected unless specified otherwise. Electronic media is preferred if readily available (The preferred file format is Word, WordPerfect, or searchable ".pdf" files on CDROM). Note that the inspectors cannot accept data provided on USB or "flash" drives due to NRC IT security policies. Please organize the information as it is arranged below to the extent possible. Experience has shown that a well organized CD leads to a more efficient inspection and lessens additional burden on licensee staff. During the inspection, the inspectors may request additional documents. If the licensee wishes to use an electronic document service such as CERTRAC or a Shareware portal, the inspectors will try to accommodate for the documentation requested onsite. The initial documents should not require an internet connection to be reviewed.

Documents requested are referenced to last inspection date for that particular module.

If you have any questions, please call Ruben Ha milton at (404) 997-4672. Thank you in advance for your efforts in putting together this material.

General Information Needed

• Contact Phone Numbers for: a. Radiation Protection contacts b. Chemistry contacts

• Procedure for issuing Nuclear Condition Reports (CR) and assessing issues for risk significance and follow-up actions/ Corrective action program procedure.

• Updated Final Safety Analysis Report Chapters 11, Effluents/Radwaste; and Chapter 12 Radiation Protection.

• Current Part 61 Analysis Results for Dry Active Waste (DAW).

• Plant Management, Radiation Protection, and Chemistry organizational charts with contact numbers.

• Outage schedule of major activities (Gantt chart if available).

• Audits and self-assessments performed since the last inspection that encompasses the areas of (1) radiation protection, (2) access controls, (3) solid radioactive waste processing, and (4) shipping and transportation of radioactive material.

2 71124.01 Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Controls (Last Inspected 5/18/12)

• List of outage RWPs.

• Plant maps of all Locked HRAs and VHRAs. Include areas with the potential to become a LHRA during routine operations or outages.
