Please let me know that you received this request. If there are any questions about this inspection, or the material requested, please contact me via email, or at the phone number or address included below.

Regards, Bob 1

H.B. Robinson Nuclear Plant Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Report: 2018002 During the week of June 11-15, 2018, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at H.B. Robinson Nuclear Plant, (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.03 (partial), 71124.04, 71124.05, and the Public Radiation Safety Section of 71151).

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we are requesting in advance documents needed for this activity. It is important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, thereby minimizing the number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. The NRC requests that these documents provided to the inspectors in CD/DVD format no later than May 30, 2018.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Robert Kellner, at robert.kellner@nrc.gov or (404) 997-4508, or the Engineering Branch 3 Branch Chief, Brian Bonser, at (404) 997-4653.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, of the NRCs Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure, a copy of this letter, and its Enclosure, will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room, or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS); accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT This document 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 under control numbers 3150-0008, 3150-0011, 3150-0014, 3150-0044, and 3150-0135.

PUBLIC PROTECTION NOTIFICATION The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement, unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

Document Request List Licensee: H.B. Robinson Nuclear Plant Docket Number(s): 05000261 Inspection Dates: June 11-15, 2018 Documents Due to R-II by: May 30, 2018 Inspection Procedures (IPs): 71124.03 In-Plant Airborne Radioactivity Control and Mitigation 71124.04 Occupational Dose Assessment 71124.05 Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation 71151 Performance Indicator Verification Lead Inspector: Robert Kellner Senior Health Physicist US NRC Region II (404) 997-4714 robert.kellner@nrc.gov Note: The current version of these documents is expected unless specified otherwise.

Electronic media is preferred if readily available. Note that the inspectors cannot accept data provided on USB or flash drives due to NRC IT security policies. Please organize the information as it is arranged below to the extent possible. Experience has shown that a poorly organized CD leads to a less efficient inspection and places additional burden on licensee staff. Pay particular attention to the date ranges for the items requested as they may change from item to item. If there are questions regarding the documents requested, or if the documents cannot be provided by the due date, please do not hesitate to contact the lead inspector.

Documentation for the inspection procedures from June 1, 2017 to the present is requested for all procedures. This reflects the last time these areas were inspected. We would prefer as much of the information as possible in electronic form. An index to the CD contents is also helpful. For those items requesting a list of documents/areas, the inspector will select documents/areas from the list for on-site review.
