SUBJECT: FORT CALHOUN STATION - NOTIFICATION OF EVALUATIONS OF CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS, AND PERMANENT PLANT MODIFICATIONS

INSPECTION (05000285/2016007) AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Marik:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

staff will conduct the baseline inspection of changes, tests, experiments, and permanent plant modifications at your Fort Calhoun Station from July 25 through July 29 and August 8 through August 12, 2016. The inspection will consist of three reactor inspectors from the NRC's Region IV office for two weeks. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection

Procedure 71111.17T, "Evaluations of Changes, Tests, and Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications."

Experience has shown that this

inspection is resource intens

ive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your on-site resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection.

Please note that the documents are requested to

be provided by July 18, 2016. 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 on-site 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 Corey Cameron of your licensing

organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Robert Latta, by telephone at 817-200-1532 or by e-mail at

Robert.Latta@nrc.gov.

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information

collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, 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.
