SUBJECT:
MCGUIRE NUCLEAR STATION - EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Capps:
From August 3 - 7, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will perform a baseline Emergency Preparedness inspection at the McGuire Nuclear Power Station. The inspection will evaluate activities in the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone using NRC Inspection Procedures (IPs) 71114.04 Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes; 71114.07 Exercise Evaluation - Hostile Action Event; and the Emergency Preparedness sections of 71151 Performance Indicator Verification. Prior to the onsite inspection period, inspectors will review the proposed exercise scenario using IP 71114.08 Exercise Evaluation -
Scenario Review.
Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors and your staff. To minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this 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.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff, and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Ms. Kay Crane at 980-875-4306 of your organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector, Steven Sanchez at 404-997-4418 (steven.sanchez@nrc.gov), or the Chief, Plant Support Branch 1, 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 Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter, and its Enclosure, will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC
