UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION III 2443 WARRENVILLE RD. SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 March 26, 2015 Mr. Bryan C. Hanson Senior VP, Exelon Generation Company, LLC President and CNO, Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555
SUBJECT:
INFORMATION REQUEST TO SUPPORT UPCOMING PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION (PI&R) INSPECTION AT LASALLE COUNTY STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2
Dear Mr. Hanson:
This letter is to request information to support our scheduled PI&R inspection beginning May 4, 2015, at LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2. This inspection will be performed in accordance with the NRC baseline Inspection Procedure 71152.
Experience has shown that these inspections are extremely resource intensive both for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspectors and the utility staff. In order to minimize the impact that the inspection has on the site and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a list of documents required for the inspection.
The documents requested are copies of condition reports and lists of information necessary to ensure the inspection team is adequately prepared for the inspection. The information requested prior to the inspection may be provided in either CD-ROM/DVD (preferred) or hard copy format and should be ready for NRC review by April 24, 2015. Mr. Robert Ruiz, the Lead Inspector, will contact your staff to determine the best method of providing the requested information.
If there are any questions about the material requested, or the inspection in general, please contact Mr. Ruiz at the LaSalle Resident Office at 815-357-8611 or Robert.Ruiz@nrc.gov.
