SUBJECT:
CALLAWAY - NOTIFICATION OF AN NRC TRIENNIAL FIRE PROTECTION
BASELINE INSPECTION 05000483/2003007
Dear Mr. Randolph:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC),
Region IV staff, will conduct a triennial fire protection baseline inspection at your Callaway Plant
in September of 2003. The inspection team will be comprised of a team of reactor inspectors
from the NRC Region IV office and a contractor. The inspection will be conducted in
accordance with Inspection Procedure 71111.05, "Fire Protection," the NRCs baseline fire
protection inspection procedure.
The schedule for the inspection is as follows:
Information gathering visit - September 9 - 11, 2003
Onsite inspection - September 22 - October 2, 2003
Members of the inspection team will visit the Callaway Plant from September 9 to 11, 2003, to
gather information and documents needed to support the inspection, obtain unescorted access,
and to become familiar with your fire protection program. The enclosure to this letter provides a
list of the types of documents the team will want to review. After review the team leader will
request that you transmit copies of some of the documents to the NRC, Region IV office for
team use in preparation for the inspection. We would appreciate it if you could send this
information so that it will arrive in our office in Arlington, Texas, no later than noon on
September 15, 2003.
We request that during the onsite inspection week, you ensure that copies of analyses,
evaluations, or documentation regarding the implementation and maintenance of the fire
protection program, including post-fire safe shutdown capability, be readily accessible to the
team for their review. Of specific interest are those documents that establish that your fire
protection program satisfies NRC regulatory requirements and conforms to applicable NRC
and industry fire protection guidance. Also, appropriate personnel knowledgeable of: (1) those
plant systems required to achieve and maintain safe shutdown conditions from inside and
outside the control room, (2) the electrical aspects of the post-fire safe shutdown analyses,
(3) reactor plant fire protection systems, and (4) the fire protection program and its
implementation should be available to support the team at the site during the inspection.
Your cooperation and support during this inspection will be appreciated. If you have questions
concerning this inspection or the inspection teams information or logistical needs, please
contact Rebecca L. Nease at 817-860-8154.
Sincerely,
/RA/ RLN for
