SUBJECT:

INFORMATION REQUEST TO SUPPORT UPCOMING PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2, PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION (PI&R) INSPECTION

Dear Mr. Wadley:

This letter is to request information to support our biennial PI&R inspection beginning September 10, 2007, at Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. This inspection will be performed in accordance with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) baseline Inspection Procedure 71152.

Experience has shown that these inspections are extremely resource intensive both for the 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 performance indicator reports and lists of information, necessary to ensure the inspection team is adequately prepared for the inspection. The information may be provided in either CD-ROM or hard copy format and should be ready for NRC review by August 27, 2007. Ms. Desiree R. Smith, the Lead Inspector, will contact you 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 do not hesitate to call Ms. Desiree R. Smith at (630) 829-9637, or to contact her by email at drc1@nrc.gov.

M. Wadley In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs 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 NRCs document system (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,
