TRIENNIAL 10 CFR 50.59 (EVALUATION OF CHANGES, TESTS AND

EXPERIMENTS) BASELINE INSPECTION 05000461/2018010

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On July 30, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Title 10 of the

Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50.59, (Evaluation of Changes, Tests and Experiments),

Baseline Inspection at the Clinton Power Station. This inspection will be performed in

accordance with the NRC Baseline Inspection Procedure 71111.17T. The onsite portions of the

inspection will take place on July 30-August 3, 2018.

Experience has shown that these baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both

for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on

the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for

documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into three groups.

The first group of information is necessary to ensure that the inspection team is

adequately prepared for the inspection. This information should be made available via

compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than June 1, 2018. The

inspection team will review this information and, by June 15, 2018, will request specific

items that should be provided for review in the regional office by July 13, 2018.

The second group of requested documents contains additional items that the team will

review, or need access to, during the inspection. Certain documents contained within

Group II (i.e., Item (1)), will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the

inspection by July 13, 2018, as identified above. The remaining documents should be

available by the first day of the onsite inspection, July 30, 2018.

The third group lists information necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues

identified as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to

the lead inspector as the information is generated during the inspection. 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.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Atif Shaikh. We understand that our regulatory contact

for this inspection is Nicholas Santos of your organization. If there are any questions about the

inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at 630-829-9824 or via

e-mail at Atif.Shaikh@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
