SUBJECT: PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANTNRC TRIENNIAL FIRE PROTECTION INSPECTION REPORT 05000255/2018011

Dear Mr. Arnone:

On May 14, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Triennial Fire Protection Inspection at your Palisades Nuclear Plant. The NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Charles Arnone and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report. Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has identified two issues that were evaluated under the risk significance determination process as having very low safety significance (Green) and one unresolved item. The NRC has also determined that two violations are associated with these issues. Because the licensee initiated condition reports to address the issues, these violations are being treated as a Non-Cited Violations (NCVs), consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The NCVs are described in the subject inspection report. If you contest the violations or significance of the NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555 0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC resident inspector at the Palisades Nuclear Plant. If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; and the NRC resident inspector at the Palisades Nuclear Plant. This letter will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part E

Sincerely,/RA Mark Jeffers Acting for/ Robert C Daley, Chief Engineering Branch 3 Division of Reactor Safety Docket Nos. 50255; 72007 License No. DPR20
