SUBJECT: PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANTREQUEST FOR INFORMATION FOR AN
NRC DESIGN BASES ASSURANCE INSPECTION (PROGRAM):
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALIFICATION PROGRAM
INSPECTION REPORT 05000440/2018010
Dear Mr. Hamilton:
On June 25, 2018, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a Triennial
Baseline Design Bases Assurance Inspection (Program) at Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
This inspection will be performed in accordance with NRC Baseline Inspection
Procedure 71111.21N, Attachment 1.
The Design Bases Assurance Inspection will focus on the implementation of the electrical
equipment Environmental Qualification (EQ) Program to verify you are maintaining the qualified
status of equipment during the life of the plant. The EQ components to be reviewed during this
baseline inspection will be identified during the in-office preparation week that occurs prior to the
onsite inspection week.
The inspection will include a bagman trip to support selection of components and 2 weeks of
onsite inspection. The inspection team will consist of three NRC inspectors. The current
inspection schedule is as follows:
Bagman trip onsite week: May 30, 2018, through June 1, 2018;
Preparation week: June 18-22, 2018; and
Onsite inspection weeks: June 25-29, 2018, and July 9-13, 2018.
Experience with previous baseline design inspections of similar depth and length has shown
that this type of inspection is extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the
licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive
inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for information needed for the
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. Insofar as possible, this information should be provided electronically to the lead
inspector. The information request has been divided into four groups:
The first group lists information necessary for our initial inspection scoping activities.
This information should be provided to the lead inspector no later than April 24, 2018.
Prior to the bagman trip on May 4, 2018, the lead inspector will communicate the initial
selected set of approximately 12 EQ components.
The second group of documents requested is those items needed to support the
bagman trip. This set of documents should be available to the lead inspector onsite on
May 30, 2018.
The third group of documents requested is those items needed to support our in-office
preparation activities for the selected set of 6-9 EQ components. This set of
documents should be provided to the lead inspector at the Regional Office no later
than June 14, 2018. During the in-office preparation activities, the team may identify
additional information needed to support the inspection.
The last group includes the additional information above as well as plant specific
reference material. This information should be available to the team onsite on
June 25, 2018. It is also requested that corrective action documents and/or questions
developed during the inspection be provided to the lead inspector as the documents are
generated.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Mr. Andrew Dunlop. We understand that our licensing
contact for this inspection is Mr. Anthony Kledzik of your organization. If there are any
questions about the inspection or the material requested in the enclosure, please contact the
lead inspector at 630-829-9726 or via e-mail at Andrew.Dunlop@nrc.gov.
This letter 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, Control
Number 3150-0011. 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.
