SUBJECT:

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION (REPORT 05000254/2011001 AND 05000265/2011001)

Dear Mr. Pacilio:

On February 17, 2011, the NRC completed its end-of-cycle performance review of Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from January 1, 2010, through December 31, 2010. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility.

This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information.

A separate letter will include the NRCs assessment of your performance in the Security Cornerstone and its security-related inspection plan.

The NRC determined that overall, Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives.

The NRC determined the performance at Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, 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, 2012.

The inspections scheduled include: Inspection Procedure (IP) 71003, Post-Approval Site Inspection For License Renewal, IP 60855, Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) at Operating Plants, IP 71111.21, Component Design Basis Inspection, and IP 71111.07, Heat Sink Performance. 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. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC=s ARules of Practice,@ a copy of this letter will be made 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 Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Please contact me at (630) 829-9703 with any questions you may have regarding this letter.
