Please see the attached document request for our upcoming baseline RP inspection

scheduled for November 18-22 and December 9-13, 2024. Note that some of the items

may be outside RPs purview, so coordination with other groups might be required (e.g.

Maintenance/I&C).

We would like to have the documents available by November 8, 2024. However, if you run

into difficulty and need more time for certain items, just let us know and we can work with

you.

Please call or email me if you have any questions.

Robinson Nuclear Plant

Radiation Safety Baseline Inspection

Initial Information Request

Inspection Report: 2024004

During the weeks of November 18-22 and December 9-13 2024, the NRC will perform a

baseline Radiation Safety Inspection at Robinson Nuclear Plant (NRC Inspection Procedures

71124.01, 71124.03, 71124.04, 71124.05, and 71151).

Experience has shown that this inspection is resource-intensive for both the NRC inspectors

and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a

productive inspection, we are requesting in advance documents needed for this activity. It is

important that all of these documents are up-to-date, and complete, thereby minimizing the

number of additional documents requested during the preparation, and/or the onsite portions of

the inspection. The NRC requests that these documents be provided to the inspectors no later

than November 8, 2024.

If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the

lead inspector, Jack Bell at 404-997-4638, or the Engineering Branch 3 Chief, Binoy Desai at

404-997-4519.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public

inspections, exemptions, requests for withholding, a copy of this document will be available

electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room, or from the Publicly

Available Records component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management

System (ADAMS); accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-

rm/adams.html.
