SUBJECT:

PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2

- INFORMATION REQUEST FOR AN NRC TRIENNIAL PERMANENT MODIFICATIONS AND 10 CFR 50.59 BASELINE INSPECTION 05000 282/201 4008; 05000 306/201 4008

Dear Mr. Davison:

On April 14, 2014

, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Triennial Permanent Modifications and 10 CFR 50.59 (MOD/50.59)

Baseline Inspection at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. This inspection will be performed in accordance with the NRC baseline Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.17 T. The onsite portion of the inspection will take place during the weeks of April 14 - 18, 2014, and April 28 - May 2, 2014. Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into three groups.

The first group of information is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is adequately prepared for the inspection.

This information should be made available via compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than February 28, 2014. The inspection team will review this information by March 14, 2014 , and will request specific items that should be provided for review in the regional office by March 28, 2014. The second group of requested documents contains additional items that the team will review, or need access to, during the inspection. Certain documents contained within Group II (i.e., Item (1)), wi ll be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by March 28, 2014, as identified above.

The remaining documents should be available by the first day of the onsite inspection, April 14, 2014. The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector as the information is generated during the inspection. It is important tha t 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.

K. Davison The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. Dariusz Szwarc. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Ms. Ingrid Nordby of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at (630) 829-9803 or via e-mail at dariusz.szwarc@nrc.gov

Existing informati on collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget and 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.
