Update: Petitions under 10 CFR 2.206 Pertaining to Flood Protection at Fort Calhoun Station and Cooper Nuclear StationGood Morning, Mr. Saporito, By letter dated January 13, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML120030022), the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Eric Leeds, accepted your petitions requesting escalated enforcement action against Fort Calhoun Station and Cooper Nuclear Station regarding flood protection (ADAMS Accession Nos.

ML11182B029 and ML11192A285, respectively), dated June 26 and July 3, 2011, filed under 10 CFR 2.206.

His letter also stated that the PRB denied your request for immediate action since it determined that there is no immediate safety concern that would warrant an immediate action by the NRC to prevent the restart of FCS or to bring Cooper to cold shutdown, as you requested.

The purpose of this e-mail is to inform you that I've drafted the proposed Director's Decision and will be sending it to you and the licensees for comment, probably by next week, I hope. The cover letter and draft proposal are slowly making their way through our bureaucratic process for signature. We haven't forgotten your petition, but I've waited until now so that our NRC staff inspections and evaluations of the issues you raised have reached a point that I can give you a meaningful answer.

Thank you,

Fred Lyon Project Manager Nuclear Regulatory Commission Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Fred.Lyon@nrc.gov 301-415-2296 Hearing Identifier: NRR_PMDA Email Number: 1927 Mail Envelope Properties (Fred.Lyon@nrc.gov20150309102000)
