SUBJECT:

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER FOR BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 (REPORTS 05000334/2017006 AND 0500412/2017006 05000334/2017402 AND 05000412/2017402 AND 05000334/2017501 AND 05000412/2017501)

Dear Mr. Bologna:

The NRC has completed its end-of-cycle performance assessment of Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2, reviewing performance indicators (PIs), inspection results, and enforcement actions from January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2017. 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 concluded that overall performance at your facility preserved public health and safety.

The NRC determined the performance at Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2, during the most recent quarter was within the Licensee Response Column (Column 1) of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) Action Matrix in Inspection Manual Chapter 0305, Operating Reactor Assessment Program, because all inspection findings had very low safety significance (i.e., Green), and all PIs were within the 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 December 31, 2019.

This updated inspection plan now includes planned security inspections which were formerly transmitted under separate correspondence. The NRC provides the inspection plan to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues. Routine inspections performed by resident inspectors are not included in the inspection plan. The inspections listed during the last twelve months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised. The NRC will contact you as soon as possible to discuss changes to the inspection plan should circumstances warrant any changes.

The NRC will also be performing TI-191, Inspection of Licensees Responses to Order EA-12-049, EA-12-051 and EP Info Request March 12, 2012," in the first quarter of 2018.

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's Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRCs Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). Please contact me at 610-337-5205 with any questions you may have regarding this letter.

Sincerely,

/RA/
