COOPER NUCLEAR STATION - NOTIFICATION OF INSPECTION (NRC
INSPECTION REPORT 05000298/2012005) AND REQUEST FOR
INFORMATION
Dear Mr. OGrady:
From September 4 - September 28, 2012, Reactor Inspectors from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commissions (NRC) Region IV office will perform the baseline inspection of changes, tests,
experiments, and permanent plant modifications at Cooper Nuclear Station, using NRC
Inspection Procedure 71111.17, Evaluations of Changes, Tests, Experiments, and Permanent
Plant Modifications.
Experience has shown that this inspection is resource intensive both for the NRC inspectors
and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a
productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection.
Upon review of these documents, the inspectors will select additional documentation for review
upon arrival. 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.
We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand
that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mr. David Madsen of your regulatory affairs
organization. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please
contact the lead inspector Eduardo Uribe at 817-200-1534 or by email eduardo.uribe@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.
