Mr. Fadi Diya, Senior Vice President
and Chief Nuclear Officer

SUBJECT:
MID-CYCLE ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR CALLAWAY PLANT
(REPORT 05000483/2016005)
Dear Mr. Diya:
On August 9, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed its mid-cycle
performance review of Callaway Plant. The NRC reviewed the most recent quarterly
performance indicators (PIs) in addition to inspection results and enforcement actions from
July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. This letter informs you of the NRCs assessment of your
facility during this period and its plans for future inspections at your facility.
The NRC determined that overall, Callaway Plant operated in a manner that preserved public
health and safety and met all cornerstone objectives. The NRC determined the performance at
Callaway Plant during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column of the
NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix because all inspection findings had very
low (i.e., Green) safety significance, and all PIs indicated that your performance was within the
nominal, expected range (i.e., Green). Therefore, the NRC plans to conduct ROP baseline
inspections at your facility.
The enclosed inspection plan lists the inspections scheduled through June 30, 2018. Routine
inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The
inspections listed during the second half of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised
at the end-of-cycle performance review. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the
resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. The NRC will contact
you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances
warrant any changes. This inspection plan does not include security related inspections, which
will be sent via separate, non-publicly available correspondence.
In response to the accident at Fukushima, the Commission issued Order EA-12-049, Order
Modifying Licenses with Regard to Requirements for Mitigation Strategies for Beyond-Design-
Basis External Events, and Order EA-12-051, Order Modifying Licenses with Regard to
Reliable Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation. The NRC conducted audits of licensee efforts
towards compliance with these Orders, and the information gathered will aid staff in
development of the ultimate Safety Evaluation for the site. After the NRC staff receives the
Final Compliance letter for the site, the Safety Evaluation will be issued. Then, the NRC staff
F. Diya
- 2 -
will confirm through inspections the full implementation of the orders mentioned above by
performing Temporary Instruction 191, Inspection of the Implementation of Mitigation Strategies
and Spent Fuel Pool Instrumentation Orders and Emergency Preparedness
Communication/Staffing/Multi-Unit Dose Assessment Plans.
In Staff Requirements Memorandum - SECY 16-0009, Recommendations Resulting from the
Integrated Prioritization and Re-Baselining of Agency Activities, the Commission approved the
NRC staff recommendation to discontinue the formal mid-cycle assessment process beginning
in calendar year 2017. This will be the final mid-cycle assessment letter. The staff will continue
to conduct quarterly assessment meetings and communicate changes in the assessment of
licensee performance in accordance with the guidance in Inspection Manual Chapter 0305,
Operating Reactor Assessment Program.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRCs
Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the
NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of
NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is
accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public
Electronic Reading Room).
Please contact me at 817-200-1141 with any questions you have regarding this letter.
Sincerely,
/RA/
