SUBJECT:

OYSTER CREEK GENERATING STATION - NRC COMPONENT DESIGN BASES INSPECTION REPORT 05000219/2013007

Dear Mr. Pacilio:

On September 23, 2013, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed the onsite portion of an inspection at the Oyster Creek Generating Station. Inspection activities continued remotely from the NRC office until October 9, 2013. Additional onsite inspection activities were completed on October 23 and 24, 2013. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on October 24, 2013, with Mr. R. Peak, Oyster Creek Plant Manager, and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

In conducting the inspection, the team examined the adequacy of selected components and operator actions to mitigate postulated transients, initiating events, and design basis accidents.

The inspection involved field walkdowns, examination of selected procedures, calculations and records, and interviews with station personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, no findings were identified.

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, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for the public inspection in the NRC Public Docket Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Sincerely,

/RA/
