SUBJECT:
WOLF CREEK GENERATING STATION - SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000482/2024420
Dear Cleveland Reasoner:
On September 26, 2024, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Wolf Creek Generating Station and discussed the results of this inspection with Jaime McCoy, Site Vice President and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.
No findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified during this inspection.
During this inspection your staff submitted a letter to the NRC on September 16, 2024, that documented a potential backfit concern under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.109 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS)
Accession No. ML24268A159). A subsequent letter was submitted on October 2, 2024, that requested that the NRC hold the backfit assertion in abeyance (ML24276A150). The NRC acknowledges receipt of these letters and will hold the issue in abeyance until Wolf Creek communicates that it wishes to pursue the issue further.
This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.
