| On February 10 , 201 5, the NRC completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 1. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 2014, through December 31, 2014. This letter informs you of the NRC's assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility. | | On February 10, 2015, the NRC completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 1.

The NRC determined the performance at the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 1 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, 2016. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle performance 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. This inspection plan does not include security related inspections, which will be sent via separate, non-publicly available correspondence. |

UNITED STATES arch 4, 2015
SUBJECT:
ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1, NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000390/2014001
Dear Mr. Shea:
On February 10, 2015, the NRC completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 1. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs)
in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 2014, through December 31, 2014. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility.
The NRC determined that overall, Watts Bar Unit 1 operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 1 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, 2016. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the mid-cycle performance 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. This inspection plan does not include security related inspections, which will be sent via separate, non-publicly available correspondence.
In addition to the ROP baseline inspections at your facility, we also plan on conducting infrequently performed inspections which include: Temporary Instruction (TI) 191, Inspection of the Implementation of Mitigation Strategies and Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation Orders and Emergency Preparedness Communication/Staffing/Multi-Unit Dose Assessment Plans, Inspection Procedure (IP) 43004, Inspection of Commercial-Grade Dedication Programs, and an initial operator license examination. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Please contact me at (404) 997-4511 with any questions you have regarding this letter.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Michael F. King, Chief Reactor Projects Branch 6 Division of Reactor Projects Docket No.: 50-390 License No.: NPF-90 Enclosure: Watts Bar Inspection/Activity Plan (03/01/2015 - 06/30/2016)
