June 4, 2018 Mr. Dean Curtland Director of Site Operations NextEra Energy Duane Arnold, LLC 3277 DAEC Road Palo, IA 523249785 SUBJECT: DUANE ARNOLD ENERGY CENTERNOTIFICATION OF NRC BASELINE INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION; INSPECTION REPORT 05000331/2018003 Dear Mr. Curtland: On September 4, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin the Baseline Inservice Inspection Procedure 71111.08. This onsite inspection is scheduled to be performed September 4, 2018, through September 11, 2018. Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for the NRC inspector and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources, and to ensure a productive inspection for both sides, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. These documents have been divided into two groups. The first group identifies information necessary to ensure that the inspector is adequately prepared. The second group identifies the information the inspector will need upon arrival at the site. 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 inspection activities with your staff and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Ms. L. Swenzinski, of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector Mr. M. Holmberg at 630-829-9748, or via e-mail at msh@nrc.gov. This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, Control Number 3150-0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget Control Number.
D. Curtland -2- This letter and its enclosure 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 Sincerely, /RA/ Mel Holmberg, Reactor Inspector Engineering Branch 1 Division of Reactor Safety Docket No. 50331 License No. DPR49 Enclosure: Baseline Inservice Inspection Document Request cc: Distribution via LISTSERV

Information for the In-Office Preparation Week The following information (electronic copy CD ROM if possible) is requested by August 14, 2018, to facilitate the selection of specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite inspection week. The inspector will select specific items from the information requested below and request a list of additional documents needed onsite to your staff. We request that the specific items selected from the lists be available and ready for review on the first day of inspection. If you have any questions regarding this information, please call the inspector as soon as possible. 1. For the upcoming outage, a detailed schedule and description of: a. Non-Destructive Examinations (NDE) planned for Class 1 and 2 Systems and containment, performed as part of your American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program (include edition and addenda of Code committed to), and NDE planned for other systems performed as part of a Risk-Informed ISI Program, or other augmented inspection programs commitments, as part of an industry initiative. For each weld examination, include the weld identification number, description of weld (component name), category, class, type of exam and procedure number, and date of examination; and b. Welding on Code Class 1, 2, or 3 components. 2. A copy of the NDE procedures and welding procedures used to perform the activities identified in A.1 (including NDE calibration and flaw characterization/ sizing procedures and Welding Procedure Qualification Records). For ultrasonic examination procedures qualified in accordance with Appendix VIII, of Section XI of the ASME Code, provide documentation supporting the procedure qualification (e.g., the Electric Power Research Institute performance demonstration qualification summary sheets). 3. A copy of ASME Section XI, Code Relief Requests applicable to the examinations identified in A.1. 4. A list identifying NDE reports (ultrasonic, radiography, magnetic particle, or dye penetrant), which have identified relevant indications on Code Class 1 and 2 systems since the beginning of the last refueling outage.
BASELINE INSERVICE INSPECTION DOCUMENT REQUEST 2 5. List with short description of the welds in Code Class 1 and 2 systems, which have been fabricated due to component repair/replacement activities since the beginning of the last refueling outage and identify the system, weld number, and reference applicable documentation (e.g., NIS-2 forms with definitions of system and component acronyms). 6. If reactor vessel weld examinations required by the ASME Code are scheduled to occur during the inspection period, provide a detailed description of the welds to be examined, and the extent of the planned examination. 7. List with description of ISI related issues such as piping degradation or damage (e.g., cracks, wall thinning, wear, microbiologically induced corrosion) or errors identified in piping examinations that have been entered into your corrective action system since the beginning of the last refueling outage.
