UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 475 ALLENDALE ROAD KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-1415 March 3, 2008
Mr. Peter P. Sena, III
Site Vice President
FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company
Beaver Valley Power Station
Post Office Box 4
Shippingport, Pennsylvania 15077
SUBJECT: ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LETTER - BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 (REPORT 05000334/2008001 AND 05000412/2008001)
Dear Mr. Sena:
On February 12, 2008, the NRC staff completed its performance review of Beaver Valley Power
Station, Units 1 and 2. Our technical staff reviewed performance indicators (PIs) for the most
recent quarter and inspection results for the period January 1 through December 31, 2007. The
purpose of this letter is to inform you of our assessment of your safety performance during this period and our plans for future inspections at your facility.
This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information. A
separate letter designated and marked as "Official Use Only-Security Information" will include
the security cornerstone review and resultant inspection plan.
Beaver Valley Unit 1 and Unit 2 plant performance for the last two quarters of 2007 was within
the Licensee Response column of the NRC Action Matrix based on all inspection findings being
classified as very low safety significance (Green) and all PIs indicating performance at a level
requiring no additional NRC oversight (Green). No substantive cross cutting issues were
identified in any of the three cross cutting areas.
Plant performance for the first two quarters of 2007 was within the Regulatory Response column
of the NRC Action Matrix, based on one inspection finding being classified as having low to
moderate safety significance (White) in the Emergency Preparedness (EP) Cornerstone due to
a dose assessment procedure inadequacy that could have resulted in untimely protective action
recommendations. The NRC completed a supplemental inspection in accordance with
Inspection Procedure 95001 in June 2007 to review actions taken to address the White EP
finding and concluded that FENOC appropriately identified root causes and adequately
implemented corrective actions for this issue. As a result, plant performance was restored to
the Licensee Response column of the NRC Action Matrix.
Based on current plant performance, we plan to conduct reactor oversight process (ROP)
baseline inspections at Beaver Valley. In addition, we will also conduct inspections related to
the completion of the Extended Power Uprate for Unit 2, and inspections related to the Beaver
Valley license renewal review. The enclosed inspection plan details the inspections, less those related to physical protection scheduled through June 30, 2009. The inspection plan is provided to allow for the resolution of
any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues well in advance of inspector arrival
onsite. Routine resident inspections are not listed due to their ongoing and continuous nature.
The inspections in the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised
at the end-of-cycle review.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules and Practices," a copy of this letter and
its enclosure will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public
Document Room or from the Publicly Avail able Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (The Public Electronic Reading Room).
The NRC is currently evaluating the scope and frequency of all the baseline inspection
procedures. If the results of the evaluation, or any other circumstances, cause us to change the
inspection plan, we will contact you to discuss the change as soon as possible. Please contact
Dr. Ronald Bellamy at 610-337-5200 with any questions you may have regarding this letter or
the inspection plan.
Sincerely,
/RA/ David C. Lew, Director Division of Reactor Projects
