Surry Power Station Units 1 and 2 - Pre liminary RAIs for 10 CFR 26.205(c) and (d)

Exemption Request Here are the preliminary Surry RAIs regarding your February 10, 2011, exemption request. The purpose of sending preliminary RAIs is to ensure the RAIs are clear and understandable. If clarification is needed, I will arrange for a teleconference to discuss them.

By letter dated February 10, 2011, Virginia Electric and Power Company, the licensee for Surry Power Station Units 1, and 2 requested an exemption from certain requirements of the Fitness for Duty Rule for Managing Fatigue. Specifically, the letter requested an exemption from the requirements of 10 CFR 26.205 (c) and (d) for meeting work hour controls during declarations of severe weather conditions involving tropical storm or hurricane-force winds.

The staff determined that additional information is required to complete its review. In order for the staff to meet its schedule for completing the review, a response is requested by May 16, 2011.

1. Many factors contribute to fatigue. One of these factors is inconsistent start times. In order to manage fatigue during the sequester, will shift start times be pre-planned and consistent? Explain the rational for organizing current shift start times during the sequester. 2. Time at work is one of the major contributors to fatigue; another is lack of restorative rest. What are the expected typical shift durations for the various job duty groups that will be sequestered? Will any individuals be required to work shifts longer than 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />?
