SUBJECT: COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION - NOTIFICATION OF EVALUATIONS OF
CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS, AND PERMANENT PLANT
MODIFICATIONS INSPECTION (05000397/2014005) AND REQUEST FOR
INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Reddemann:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff
will conduct the baseline inspection of changes, tests, experiments, and permanent plant
modifications at your Columbia Generating Station from September 22-26, 2014, and
October 5-10, 2014. The inspection will consist of three reactor inspectors from the NRCs
Region IV office for two weeks. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with NRC
Inspection Procedure 71111.17T, Evaluations of Changes, Tests, and Experiments and
Permanent Plant Modifications.
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 information. Please note that the
information is requested to be provided by September 15, 2014. Upon review of this
information, the inspectors will select additional information for review upon arrival onsite. It is
important that all of this information is up-to-date and complete in order to minimize the amount
of additional information 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 Richard Garcia of your licensing
organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please
contact the lead inspector, Jonathan Braisted, by telephone at 817-200-1194, or by e-mail at
Jonathan.Braisted@nrc.gov.
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, control
number 3150-0011. 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 currently valid Office of Management and Budget control
number.
