SUBJECT:
NOTIFICATION OF ROBINSON NUCLEAR PLANT - REVIEW OF GENERIC LETTER 89-13: SERVICE WATER SYSTEM PROBLEMS AFFECTING SAFETY-RELATED EQUIPMENT INSPECTION
Dear Mr. Moyer:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
Region II staff will conduct a review of Generic Letter 89-13, Service Water System Problems Affecting Safety-Related Equipment, at your Robinson Nuclear Plant during the week of September 27, 2004. A group of four inspectors will perform this inspection. The inspection will be led by Mr. Michael A. Scott, a Senior Reactor Inspector from the NRC Region II Office.
This inspection will be conducted in accordance with a Temporary Instruction (TI) Review of Generic Letter 89-13: Service Water System Problems Affecting Safety-Related Equipment.
The objective of this TI is to support the NRC review of licensees activities in response to NRC generic communications. This TI will gather information to help the NRC staff identify and shape possible future regulatory positions and enhance the agency operating experience program. The inspection will verify that actions implemented in response to NRC Generic Letter 89-13 are programmatically controlled and have been maintained effective.
During a telephone conversation on July 19, 2004, Mr. Chuck Baucam of your staff and myself confirmed arrangements for the onsite inspection (September 27 - October 1, 2004) and the information request enclosed. The purpose of the information request is to obtain information and documentation, outlined in the Enclosure, that is needed to support the inspection. Please contact Mr. Scott prior to preparing copies of the materials listed in the Enclosure. The inspectors will try to minimize your administrative burden by specifically identifying only those documents required for inspection preparation. Please provide the information requested by September 9, 2004.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," 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 (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
