SUBJECT: WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT 3 - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION (NRC INSPECTION REPORT 05000382/2008004) AND
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Walsh:
From July 7 - 18, 2008, Reactor Inspectors from NRC's Region IV office will perform the
baseline inspection of changes, tests, experiments, and permanent plant modifications at Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3, using NRC Inspection Procedure 71111.17, "Evaluations of Changes, Tests, Experiments, and Permanent Plant Modifications." Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. 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 onsite 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 Mr. Bob Murillo of your licensing organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector Sam Graves at (817) 860-8102 (Samuel.Graves@nrc.gov).
