Safety Ensured Prior to and During Decommissioning Activities
- NRC continues to ensure safety during the entire decommissioning process
- Timely reviews
- Draft proposed rule
- Lessons learned are being applied to current reviews and incorporated into the decommissioning rulemaking.
New Reactor Licensing in the U.S.
- NuScale Phases 2 and 3 milestone completed in July 2019
- TV A Early Site Permit application Commission hearing completed
- UAMPS Combined License Application plans to reference the NuScale design
New Reactor Licensing in the U.S.,
cont'd
- GE-Hitachi pre-application interactions anticipated for its BWRX-300 design
- Bellefonte construction permit license transfer request
Preparing for Vogtle 3 & 4 Operation
- Scheduled Fuel Load Dates
- Unit 3: November 2020
- Unit 4: November 2021
- Commercial operation anticipated 6 months after fuel load dates
- NRC prepared to support timely licensing and oversight activities
NRC's Oversight of Vogtle Construction
- Verified about 20% of all lTAAC for both units (ITAAC Closure Notifications: ICNs)
- Accepted "plans" for remaining 64%
(Uncompleted ITAAC Notifications: UINs) 5, 3. ~ \\
