SUBJECT:

DAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNIT 1 - U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION FOR LICENSE RENEWAL 05000346/2017009

Dear Mr. Boles:

On February 10, 2017, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal at your Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1. The enclosed report documents the results of this inspection as discussed on February 10, 2017, with you, and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, performed walkdowns, and interviewed personnel.

Based on the sample selected for review, there were no findings of significance identified during this inspection.

We reviewed implementation of all 54 Commitment Items. The inspectors concluded that the actions associated with 47 out of 54 Commitment Items were properly identified, implemented, and completed. For the remaining 7 Commitment Items, the inspectors noted 7 baseline inspections had not been completed and many inspection activities are scheduled 7 years into the period of extended operation. Your actions to address these 7 Commitment Items will be reviewed during a subsequent inspection.

Although 7 Commitment Items remain open, the inspectors determined that you have adequately followed your commitment change process and have tracking mechanisms in place to ensure all actions are completed in a timely manner. On these bases and in consultation with the Division of License Renewal in the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, operation into the period of extended operation is acceptable. This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) 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 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Mark T. Jeffers, Chief Engineering Branch 2 Division of Reactor Safety Docket No. 50-346 License No. NPF-3 Enclosure:
