Dear Mr. Cortopassi:

, using applicable portions of NRC Inspection Procedure 95003, "Supplemental Inspection for Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone, Multiple Degraded Cornerstones, Multiple Yellow Inputs or One Red Input," to evaluate the independent safety culture assessment performed at Fort Calhoun. This inspection is a part of the MC 0350 oversight inspection activities. Experience has shown that this inspection is a resource intensive inspection both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. The inspection will focus on information gathered from site personnel about the safety culture primarily from focus groups. The inspection team will also conduct interviews and review documents related to activities

identified in the safety culture assessment and other policies and procedures related to site safety culture. In addition, a selection of observations of various meetings and activities will be observed by the inspection team.

The inspection will include 2

-weeks of onsite inspection by the team. The inspection will consist

of 3 safety culture assessors and 2 NRC inspectors. The current inspection schedule is as follows: Preparation Week: January 7, 2013

Onsite weeks:

January 14, 2013

February 11, 2013

In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents and resources needed for this inspection.

The first group (Section

A of the enclosure) identifies information to be provided prior to the onsite portion of the inspection to support inspector preparation. The second group (Section
