Dear Mr. Felton:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 522, as amended, the Nuclear Information and Resource Service re-quests the following documents regarding the Charleston Earthquake of 1886 and seismic design for the Vogtle nuclear power plant. Please consider " documents" to include reports, studies, test results, correspondence, memoranda, meeting notes, meeting minutes, working papers, graphs, charts, diagrams, notes and summaries of conversations and interviews, computer records, and any other forms of written communication, including internal NRC Staff memoranda. The documents are specifically requested from, but not limited to, the Office of the Executive Legal Director (OELD);

Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research (Research); Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR); Generic Issues Branch of the Division of Safety Technology, NRR; and the Operating Reactors Branches of the Division of Licensing. In your response, please identify which documents correspond to which requests below.

Pursuant to this request, please provide all documents pre-pared or utilized by, in the possession of, or routed through the NRC related to:

1. The Millett earthquake fault postulated to exist 7 miles from the Vogtle reactor site (USGS Open File Report No.82-156);
2. The implications for the siting and seismic design of the Vogtle nuclear plant of the 1886 Charleston earthquake;
3. The development (and any subsequent reanalysis) of a Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) and an Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) for the Vogtle nuclear plant;
4. Contract No. RS-RES-84-128 " Charleston Earthquake hh
