SUBJECT: CALLAWAY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION

(NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000483/2010003) AND REQUEST FOR

INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Heflin:

On June 7-18, 2010, Reactor Inspectors from NRC's Region IV office will perform the baseline

inspection of heat sink performance and changes, tests, experiments, and permanent plant

modifications at Callaway Nuclear Power Plant, using NRC Inspection Procedure 71111.07,

"Heat Sink Performance", and NRC Inspection Procedure 71111.17, "Evaluations of Changes,

Tests, Experiments, and Permanent Plant Modifications."

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for 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.

Upon review of these documents, the inspectors will select additional documentation for review

upon arrival. 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 Steve Petzel of your regulatory affairs

organization. if there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please

contact the lead inspector James Adams at (817) 860-8294 or by email

In accordance with 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 document system

(ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at .!:lllirJJJt:!:!:£.~LCQ.J~~ilillD9.::

Information Requested for the In-Office Preparation Week

The following information should be sent to the Region IV office in hard copy or electronic

format (Certrec database preferred), in care of James Adams, by May 31, 2010, to facilitate the

selection of specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite inspection week. The

inspectors will select specific items from the information requested below and then request from

your staff additional documents needed during the onsite inspection weeks. We ask that the

specific items requested be available and ready for review on the first day of inspection. Also,

we request that you categorize the documents in your response with the numbered list below.

Please provide requested documentation electronically if possible. If requested documents are

large and only hard copy formats are available, please inform the inspector(s), and provide

subject documentation during the first day of the onsite inspection. If you have any questions

regarding this information request, please call the lead inspector as soon as possible.

Inspection Procedure 71111.07

Prior to May 31, 2010, the inspectors will contact your regulatory affairs organization with the

sample of two to four heat exchangers and/or heat sinks that will be selected for the inspection.

Once the inspectors select the inspection sample, they will be requesting the following

information for the selected sample:

1. Callaway Nuclear Power Plant responses and commitments to NRC Generic Letter 89-

13.

2. Heat exchanger test program/procedures, including the specific heat exchanger testing

and cleaning procedures for each selected heat exchanger.

3. FSAR sections for selected heat exchangers.

4. Biofouling/chemistry control program/procedures for selected heat exchangers.

- 1- Enclosure

5. Operations training manual sections and design basis notebooks for the selected heat

exchangers.

6. Vendor specifications and recommendations for selected heat exchangers. This should

include data that can be used to determine design heat transfer coefficient and

determine vendor recommended maintenance.

7. Design heat transfer coefficient and fouling factors for selected heat exchangers.

8. Water hammer evaluations for selected heat exchangers (if performed).

9. System health reports for the selected heat exchangers.

10. Test/Inspection results and reports covering the last 3 years for the selected heat

exchangers.

11. Trended performance for the selected heat exchangers.

12. System flow balance test results of the selected heat exchangers for last 3 years.

13. Any applicable eddy current tests for the selected heat exchangers.

14. If any selected heat exchanger systems are scheduled to be opened during the onsite

week, the team would like to observe the interior of the system.

15. A list of corrective maintenance performed in the last 3 years for the selected heat

exchangers.

16. A list of corrective action documents issued in the last 3 years for the selected heat

exchangers.

Inspection Procedure 71111.17

1. A list with descriptions, of all 50.59 screenings (or equivalent) performed since August 3,

2007, which did not result in an evaluation. Note: Description of screenings should be

brief, but of sufficient detail that inspectors can determine the significance of the issue.

2. A list with descriptions, of all 10 CFR 50.59 evaluations performed which did not result in

an application for license amendment to NRC from August 3, 2007, to the present.
