Subject:

Shearon Harris Public RP Baseline Inspection - December 2018 Attachments: Harris 2018 Rad Safety Inspection Document Request.pdf

Chuck, Per your previous email, you will be the Harris Licensing point of contact for the NRC Radiation Safety Inspection scheduled for the week of December 10 - 14, 2018. Attached is the Initial Information Request and a Document Request List.

My previous email listing the inspectors that will be on the team was incorrect. Carmen Dykes replaced Bill Pursley, so it will be Carmen Dykes and myself who will be on-site during the inspection. Since we both were recently at McGuire, our Duke site access training should be current. I am pretty sure that the REMP air sample run is done on Monday mornings. If you can confirm that is correct as soon as you get a chance, it would be appreciated. One of us will need to adjust travel plans to be there early on Monday morning.

Please let me know that you received this request. I have your direct phone number as (919) 362-2477, and cell number, if I need to contact you. 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 Robert Kellner Senior Health Physicist USNRC/Region II/DRS/EB3 Marquis One Tower Suite 1200 245 Peachtree Center Ave, NE Atlanta, GA 303031257 (404) 9974508 1

Harris Nuclear Plant Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection Initial Information Request Inspection Report: 2018004 During the week of December 10 - 14, 2018, the NRC will perform a baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at Shearon Harris Nuclear Plant (NRC Inspection Procedures 71124.06, 71124.07 and 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 be provided to the inspectors no later than November 3, 2018.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Robert Kellner at 404-997-4508, or the Plant Support Branch 1 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, a copy of this document 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.

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. During the inspection, the inspectors may request additional documents. 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 these inspection procedures, are requested from June 1, 2017 to the present, unless otherwise noted. This reflects the last time these areas were inspected. We would prefer as much of the information as possible in electronic form. An index of 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.
