Fukushima Dai-ichi Accident [Reference 1]. Reference 2 made a commitment to perform inspections of equipment that could not be inspected as identified in section 7.5 of the Flooding Walkdown Report. The Perimeter Drain Pump Pit was classified as restricted access and was scheduled to be inspected by November 1, 2014. Further evaluation of the Perimeter Drain Pump Pit has determined it to be classified as inaccessible. An evaluation of this equipment as inaccessible is in progress and the resolution of open items in section 7.5 of the Flooding Walkdown Report will be included in a submittal prescribed by Reference 3. This letter changes the commitment in Reference 2 by moving the scheduled completion date for performing the inspections and JAF will submit the resolution of the open items to the NRC by December 30, 2014.
