SUBJECT:
MID-CYCLE ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
- NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000400/2015005
Dear Mr. Waldrep:
On August 12, 2015, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed its mid-cycle performance review of Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant
. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from July 1, 2014, through June 30, 2015. This letter informs you of the NRC's 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.
The NRC determined that overall, Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant operated in a manner that preserved public health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the NRC's 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, 2017. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the second half of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the end
-of-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. This inspection plan does not include security
-related inspections, which will be sent via separate, non
-publicly available correspondence.
We also plan on conducting the following infrequently performed inspection:
Operator Licensing Initial Exams.
Additionally, the triennial commitment management program audit is scheduled for October 2015. In response to the accident at Fukushima, the Commission issued Order EA
-12-049, "Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to Requirements for Mitigation Strategies for Beyo nd-Design-Basis External Events.
" This Order requires licensees to develop, implement, and maintain guidance and strategies to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and spent fuel pool cooling capabilities following a beyond
-design-basis external event.
Additionally, the Commission issued Order EA
-12-051, "Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation
." This Order requires licensees to have a reliable means of remotely monitoring wide
-range Spent Fuel Pool levels to support effective prioritization of event mitigation and recovery actions in the event of a beyond
-design-basis external event.
The NRC is conducting audits of licensee efforts towards compliance with these Orders.
The audit was completed for the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, and the information gathered will aid staff in development of the ultimate Safety Evaluation for the site.
After the NRC staff receives the Final Compliance letter for the site, the Final Safety Evaluation will be issued.
Then, the NRC staff will confirm through inspections the full implementation of the orders mentioned above performing TI 191,
"Inspection of the Implementation of Mitigation Strategies and Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation Orders and Emergency Preparedness Communication/Staffing/Multi
-Unit Dose Assessment Plans
." In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulation s (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRC's "Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Document Access and Management 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 George Hopper at (404) 997-4645 with any questions you may have regarding this letter.
