SUBJECT:
SEABROOK STATION - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION AND NOTIFICATION
OF CONDUCT OF IP 71111.21.N.04, AGE-RELATED DEGRADATION,
REFERENCE INSPECTION REPORT 05000443/2024011
Dear Bob Coffey:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
staff will conduct IP 71111.21N.04, Age-Related Degradation, baseline inspection at Seabrook
Station in April 2024. Joseph Schoppy, a Senior Reactor Inspector from the NRCs Region I
office, will lead the inspection team. The team will be composed of personnel from the NRC
Region I Office. The inspection will be conducted in accordance with IP 71111.21N.04 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML22210A107). The inspection will evaluate the implementation of the programs
and activities to determine on a sampling basis that age-related degradation of structures and
components (SCs) is identified and addressed.
The schedule for the inspection is as follows:
Information gathering visit: Week of February 5, 2024
Onsite inspection: Weeks of April 8 and April 22, 2024
The purpose of the information gathering visit is to become familiar with the station
maintenance, surveillance, testing, inspection, and condition monitoring programs, become
familiar with plant layout, support identification of SCs that will be reviewed during the
inspection, and, as necessary, obtain plant specific site access training and badging for
unescorted site access. An initial list of documents that the team will review during the
information gathering visit are listed in enclosure 1.
During the information gathering visit, the team will also discuss the following inspection support
administrative details: office space size and location; specific documents requested to be made
available to the team in their office spaces; arrangements for reactor site access and the
availability of knowledgeable plant staff and licensing organization personnel to serve as points
of contact during the inspection.

For SCs that the inspection will review, an initial list of the documents the team will review
during the conduct of the inspection are listed in enclosure 2. The team leader will contact you
with identified SCs by February 23, 2024. Also, personnel should be available at the site during
the inspection who are knowledgeable regarding maintenance, surveillance, testing, inspection,
and condition monitoring programs.
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, under 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.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390 of the NRC rules
and practices, a copy of this letter and its enclosures will be available electronically for public
inspection in the NRC public document room or from the publicly available records component
of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website
(http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html).
This baseline inspection and the supporting inspection procedure and documentation template
are new to the Reactor Oversight Process this year. As such, please communicate with the
team lead readily if there are questions as to document scope or suggestions to better
accomplish this process.
Sincerely,
Mel Gray, Chief
Engineering Branch 1
Division of Operating Reactor Safety

Enclosure 1: Documents Requested for Information Gathering Visit
Enclosure 1
The following information is requested by February 5, 2024, which is the first day of the
information gathering trip. Electronic format is the preferred media. If electronic media is made
available via an internet based remote document management system, then the remote
document access must allow inspectors to download, save, and print the documents in the
NRC's regional office. Electronic media on compact disc or paper records (hard copy) are
acceptable. At the end of the inspection, the documents in the team's possession will not be
retained.
This document request is based on typical documents that a generic plant might have. As such,
this document request is not meant to imply that any specific plant is required to have all of the
listed documents. In addition, your plant specific document titles may vary from the document
titles listed below.
Contact Information:
Team Lead: Joseph Schoppy
Email: Joseph.Schoppy@nrc.gov
Telephone: (610) 337-5286
Documents Requested:
1) A list of 50.65 (a)(1) SSCs from the past 5 years.
2) A list of maintenance rule functional failures from the past 5 years.
3) A list of most recent system health status for High Safety Significance (HSS) and
degraded Low Safety Significance (LSS) systems as defined in the Seabrook
maintenance rule procedures.
4) The most recent evaluation of maintenance effectiveness required per 10 CFR
50.65(a)(3).
5) The maintenance rule scoping document and performance criteria.
6) List of corrective action documents associated with component failures, or keyword
search of aging, age-related, wear, accelerated wear, corrosion, abnormal
wear, accelerated degradation, and abnormal degradation from the past 5 years.
Please include a short description of the issue in the system generated listing.
7) A list of Part 21 Reports applicable to the site from the past 5 years.
8) A list of top 100 most risk-significant structures and components. If possible, designate
